A benchmark dataset for machine learning in ecotoxicology

Kristin Schirmer, Marco Baity-Jesi, Fernando Perez Cruz

The use of machine learning for predicting ecotoxicological outcomes is promising, but underutilized. The curation of data with informative features requires both expertise in machine learning as well as a strong biological and ecotoxicological background, ...

Mechanism balancing taxonomy

Simon Nessim Henein, Florent Cosandier, Hubert Pierre-Marie Benoît Schneegans

The balancing of mechanisms consists in distributing their moving masses, inertias, and elastic components in order to achieve key mechanical properties, such as the elimination of the shaking forces and moments exported onto their supporting structure or ...

Taxonomic revision of the Eudicella White, 1839 complex, with description of three new subgenera

Michele De Palma

Morphological and DNA barcoding analysis of representative taxa in the Eudicella White complex identified five distinct subgenera, three of which are established herein: Eudicella (Coelorrhinella) n. subg., Eudicella (Aneurhina) n. subg., and Eudicella (Ce ...

Thermal Stress Interacts With Surgeonfish Feces to Increase Coral Susceptibility to Dysbiosis and Reduce Tissue Regeneration

Leïla Ezzat

Dysbiosis of coral microbiomes results from various biotic and environmental stressors, including interactions with important reef fishes which may act as vectors of opportunistic microbes via deposition of fecal material. Additionally, elevated sea surfac ...

High-throughput DNA barcoding of oligochaetes for abundance-based indices to assess the biological quality of sediments in streams and lakes

Benoît Jean Dominique Ferrari, Régis Lionel Vivien

Aquatic oligochaete communities are valuable indicators of the biological quality of sediments in streams and lakes, but identification of specimens to the species level based on morphological features requires solid expertise in taxonomy and is possible o ...

Antibiotics-induced monodominance of a novel gut bacterial order

Christoph Merten, Sebastian Martin Waszak

Objective the composition of the healthy human adult gut microbiome is relatively stable over prolonged periods, and representatives of the most highly abundant and prevalent species have been cultured and described. However, microbial abundances can chang ...

Remarks on the status of Fornasinius insignis ab. funereus Burgeon, 1937 (Coleoptera, Scarabaeidae, Cetoniinae, Goliathini)

Michele De Palma

It was recently proposed that Fornasinius insignis ab. funereus Burgeon, 1937 be raised from the synonymy with Fornasinius fornasini Bertoloni, 1853 and recognized as a good species (Tauzin, 2017). Regrettably, this proposition was based on the misidentifi ...

Taxonomic revision of genus Fornasinius Bertoloni, 1853 with description of new taxa (Scarabaeidae: Cetoniinae)

Michele De Palma

The genus Fornasinius was established in 1853 by Giuseppe BERTOLONI to receive a taxon that was sufficiently distinct from the known representatives of the genus Goliathus Lamarck, 1801, to merit a different placement. Here, the type species of the genus, ...

Ultrastructure and distribution of kleptoplasts in benthic foraminifera from shallow-water (photic) habitats

Anders Meibom, Charlotte Madeleine Nicole Lekieffre, Emmanuelle Geslin

Assimilation, sequestration and maintenance of foreign chloroplasts inside an organism is termed “chloroplast sequestration” or “kleptoplasty”. This phenomenon is known in certain benthic foraminifera, in which such kleptoplasts can be found both intact an ...

Genetic Determinism vs. Phenotypic Plasticity in Protist Morphology

Edward Mitchell, Mariusz Lamentowicz, Bjorn Jozef Maria Robroek, Enrique Lara

Untangling the relationships between morphology and phylogeny is key to building a reliable taxonomy, but is especially challenging for protists, where the existence of cryptic or pseudocryptic species makes finding relevant discriminant traits difficult. ...
