A first checklist of the Iranian Chrysididae is proposed. The list includes 184 species in 20 genera. Seventy species and genera Spinolia Dahlbom, 1854, Spintharina Semenov, 1892, Trichrysis Lichtenstein, 1876 are newly recorded from Iran. New combination is proposed for Chrysura laconiae (Arens, 2001), comb. nov. (from Chrysis) and Chrysurapyrogaster turca (Linsenmaier, 1997), comb. nov. (from Chrysis). New synonymy is proposed for Chrysura barbatula (Linsenmaier, 1968) = Chrysura barbatica Bohart, 1991, syn. nov. The status of Chrysis transcaspica Mocsáry, 1889 is resurrected. Historical data with the comments of current taxonomic position and the specific validity of some species are given.

Bats are recognized as natural reservoirs for an array of diverse viruses, particularly coronaviruses, which have been linked to major human diseases like SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV. These viruses are believed to have originated in bats, highlighting their role in virus ecology and evolution. Our study focuses on the molecular characterization of bat-derived coronaviruses (CoVs) in Canada.

Ticks are crucial vectors for various pathogens associated with human and animal diseases, including viruses. Nevertheless, significant knowledge gaps prevail in our understanding of tick-borne viruses (TBVs). We here examined existing studies on TBVs, uncovering 870 documented virus species across 28 orders, 55 families, and 66 genera.

Agricultural pests present a significant challenge to humanity, often managed through synthetic chemicals that, when misused, can cause irreversible harm to both the environment and human health. This study focuses on endemic plants from the Yucatán Peninsula in Mexico, particularly from the state of Campeche, to identify their historical uses and propose an updated list of species with pesticide potential in the region. We systematically reviewed specimens from the Center for Sustainable Development and Wildlife Management (CEDESU) herbarium and local databases.

The positive relationship between species richness and area is a fundamental principle in ecology. However, this pattern deviates on small islands, where species richness either changes independently of area or increases at a slower rate-a phenomenon known as the Small-Island Effect (SIE). While the SIE has been well documented in natural ecosystem, its presence in highly fragmented and disturbed urban ecosystem remains unexplored, posing challenges for urban vegetation conservation.
