The Stag beetle (Coleoptera: Lucanidae) is a fascinating group, often considered one of the most primitive within the Scarabaeoidea. They are valuable models for studying beetle evolution. However, the lack...

Lucanidae (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) are fascinating beetles exhibiting significant dimorphism and are widely used as beetle evolutionary study models. However, lacking high-quality genomes prohibits our understanding of Lucanidae. Herein, we proposed...

Raphidioptera (snakeflies) are a holometabolan order with the least species diversity but play a pivotal role in understanding the origin of complete metamorphosis. Here, we provide an annotated, chromosome-level reference...

Collembola is a highly diverse and abundant group of soil arthropods with chromosome numbers ranging from 5 to 11. Previous karyotype studies indicated that the Tomoceridae family possesses an exceptionally...

A new species of the fire-colored beetle genus Pseudopyrochroa Pic, 1906, P. euryfoveata Zhan & Young, sp. n., is described and illustrated from Sichuan Province, Southwest China, based on the...

Larvae of Pseudopyrochroa girardi were collected beneath bark and in coarse, decaying woody debris of dead logs in Yaan City, Sichuan Province, China. The species association was confirmed by rearing...

Larvae and pupae of Pseudopyrochroa facialis were collected beneath bark and in coarse, decaying woody debris of a standing, dead Cyclobalanopsis glauca tree in Guiyang City, Guizhou Province, China. The...

Objective: To discuss the rhytidectomy technical improvements and clinical efficacy and safety, using the purse-string imbrication suture in midface and lower face lift. Methods: The absorbable purse-string suture was used...
