TL;DR: Collecting biological specimens for scientific studies came under scrutiny when B. A. Minteer and colleagues suggested that this practice plays a significant role in species extinctions.
Systematics of Paraleucopis Malloch with proposal of Paraleucopidae, a new family of acalyptrate Diptera.
TL;DR: The sister group and superfamilial assignment of the Paraleucopidae cannot be established based on current knowledge although the family has affinities to some families of the Asteioinea sensu J.F. McAlpine.

TL;DR: An overview of potential uses of DNA barcoding relevant in the age of ecoinformatics is presented, including applications in community ecology, species invasion, macroevolution, trait evolution, food webs and trophic interactions, metacommunities, and spatial ecology.
A new species of Neossos Malloch (Diptera: Heleomyzidae) from the Yukon Territory, Canada, and a revised key to the Nearctic species.
Anna M. Solecki,Terry A. Wheeler +1 more
TL;DR: The type specimens were collected by sweeping in subarctic tundra and a mesic meadow in the Yukon Territory, Canada, which represents a significant northward extension of the known Nearctic range of the genus Neossos.
