Habitats of pre-hibernating gregarious larvae of the endangered Marsh Fritillary butterfly (Euphydryas aurinia) were studied in field in Western Bohemia, Czech Republic. The species inhabits moist… Expand
Sex Chromosome Pairing and Extensive NOR Polymorphism in Wadicosa fidelis (Araneae: Lycosidae)
In terms of cytogenetics, entelegyne araneomorphs are the best studied clade of spiders. The typical karyotype of entelegyne males consists of acrocentric chromosomes, including 2 non-homologous X… Expand
