New fossil wasp species from the earliest Eocene Fur Formation has its closest relatives in late Eocene ambers (Hymenoptera, Ichneumonidae, Pherhombinae)

The paper describes a new fossil wasp species from the earliest Eocene and places it within a subfamily previously known only from late Eocene ambers using morphometrics and phylogenetic analysis.

Resource co-limited growth in fluctuating environments

This study uses a two-resource DEB model and experiments with Daphnia magna to show how resource fluctuation frequency, phase, and covariance affect somatic growth under co-limiting conditions.

One man’s trash is another man’s treasure - the effect of bacteria on phytoplankton-zooplankton interactions in chemostat systems

This study shows that bacteria can significantly affect phytoplankton-zooplankton interactions in chemostat experiments under certain conditions, depending on experimental setup and predator traits.
