It’s not the head, it’s the butt! Meet a completely unknown organism: a blow fly (Calliphoridae) that evolved social integration in termite nests using a false termite head in the posterior part of the body. @CurrentBiology www.cell.com/current-biol...

Check out our new paper, "Isotope geolocation and population genomics in Vanessa cardui: Short- and long-distance migrants are genetically undifferentiated," out in PNAS Nexus! doi.org/10.1093/pnas...

Super stoked to share our latest research on the migratory patterns of painted lady butterflies across the Sahara! 🦋🏜️ www.cell.com/iscience/ful...
