The Design of Complex Weapons Systems in Scorpions: Sexual, Ontogenetic, and Interspecific Variation
… comprised of a pair of pedipalps ending in chelae that seize and manipulate prey, ward off predators, and secure mates. Posteriorly, they wield a venom delivery system consisting of a tail-like metasoma with a stinger at the tip of the terminal segment (telson) that can be thrust into prey, …

Application of data-driven neural networks to bio-inspired lattice design and prediction of multiphysics solution fields
… structures such as bamboo, beetles, and crab chelae. These designs, characterized by cross-sections, heights, hierarchy levels, and vertex topologies, are explored using a parameter-based geometry generation framework. A hybrid Transformer-GRU model is trained on geometric features and serves …

Identifying dryinidae (hymenoptera) - auchenorrhyncha (hemiptera) host associations using phylogenetics
Dryinidae is a family of ectoparasitoid wasps with cosmopolitan distribution that exclusively preys on and parasitizes members of the suborder Auchenorrhyncha (Hemiptera). Host records of these important biocontrol agents are fragmentary because previous records have been based on tedious …
