Varieties of leaf-chewing larvae, miners, and gallers sampled in the Czech Republic and Japan. Photos taken by Martin Volf and Martin Libra.
Issue 86:3 is now out. The In Focus in this issue is by Damien Farine and looks at the paper by Andrea Springer on “Dynamic vs. static social networks in models of parasite transmission: predicting Cryptosporidium spread in wild lemurs”.
We also have papers on community ecology, trophic interactions, behavioural ecology, population ecology, spatial ecology and demography.
As always to make the most of all the great photos from our authors below is a slideshow of the best images.
