Description of the female Apocolotois smirnovi (Romanoff, 1885) (Lepidoptera: Geometridae, Ennominae), with comments on the biology and distribution of the species.

The hitherto unknown female of Apocolotois smirnovi (Romanoff, 1885) is described based on two specimens from Tbilisi, Georgia. To date, only males of this rare Transcaucasian species were known. The results of DNA barcoding are presented, larva and pupa of A.

Anatomical variations of the insular gyri: A morphological study and proposal of unified classification.

The locations of gyral landmarks vary among individuals. This can be crucial during local landmark-based mapping of the human cortex, so the aim of the present study was to establish criteria for classifying the morphological variability of the human insula. The study was conducted on 50 isolated, randomly-selected adult cadaveric hemispheres, fixed in 10% formalin, and preserved in 70% ethanol (24 right and 26 left hemispheres).

Ellenberg's indicator values support prediction of suitable habitat for pre-diapause larvae of endangered butterfly Euphydryas aurinia.

In spite of the great popularity of Ellenberg's Indicator Values (EIVs) in plant ecology, animal ecologists seldom use EIVs to address ecological questions. In this study we used EIVs to test their potential usefulness for the prediction of suitable habitat for pre-diapause larvae of the endangered butterfly species Euphydryas aurinia. Nine transects crossing grasslands in SW Poland with abundant populations of E.
