Chromosome-Scale Genomes of the Flightless Caterpillar Hunter Beetles Calosoma tepidum and Calosoma wilkesii From British Columbia (Coleoptera: Carabidae).

The giant ground beetle genus Calosoma (Coleoptera, Carabidae) comprises ca. 120 species distributed worldwide. About half of the species in this genus are flightless due to a process of wing reduction likely resulting from the colonization of remote habitats such as oceanic islands, highlands, and deserts.

Physiotherapy in acute geriatrics wards: What (de)motivates patients? A qualitative study based on self-determination theory.

Background: While the benefits of physiotherapy for hospitalized older patients (HOPs) are well established, these patients are often considered demotivated by healthcare team members (HTMs), which is perceived as a hindrance to their rehabilitation. The quantitative data currently available on the lack of involvement of HOPs are mainly measures of mobility. Motivation as such has, to our knowledge, never been measured.
