Stingless bees (Hymenoptera: Meliponini) are among the most important pollinators of tropical forests.Peru is considered a hotspot of biodiversity of Meliponini, but many areas of this country (e.g., Peruvian Amazon) remain unexplored.We aimed to produce a first inventory of stingless bee species dwelling in humid and seasonally dry forests of nort

Adolescence is a key period of social development at the end of which individuals are expected to take on adult social roles.The school class, as the most salient peer group, becomes the prime environment that impacts social development during adolescence.Using social network analyses, we investigated how individual and group level features are rel

Abstract South American racers of the tribe Philodryadini are Extender Spray a widespread and diverse group of Neotropical snakes with a complex taxonomic and systematic history.Recent studies failed to present a robust phylogenetic hypothesis for the tribe, mainly due to incomplete taxon sampling.Here we provide the most extensive molecular phylog

This paper explores municipalism in a Danish context.The notion of municipalism has over the last decade gained both renewed academic traction and developed as a political practice, especially in a Southern European context.Within this framework, municipalities have sought to develop alternative policy frameworks targeting societal challenges such

We explored the interaction between radiation of different wavelength and jasmonic acid (JA) or brassinosteroids (BR) on leaf senescence-induced oxidative stress.Three approaches were used: 1) jasmonic acid insensitive1-1 (jai1-1) and brassinosteroid-deficient [dumpy (dpy)] mutants were treated with red (R) or far-red (FR) radiation; 2) phytochrome
