  1. The #prehistoric extinction of large #herbivorous #megafauna in Panama resulted in cascading ecological disruptions, specifically an increase in regional wildfires and a significant decline in plant species reliant on massive animals for seed dispersal.

  6. #Springtail #Orchesella #cincta is up to 4 mm long, native to #Europe/Canada and is #herbivorous/ fungi-bacteriovorous, #living e.g.in dead plant tissue. Specimen below: on #deadwood with island-like #fungalgrowth, mites, e.g. #Linopodes, and i.a. #isopods.
    G. Ernsting & J. A. Isaaks (2002) found the #dimorphic #gendersize with smaller males being due to growth inhibition by #spermatophore development.

  7. He lives in the Zoo, close to my house, sometimes I go there to sit with the birds, and watch the monkeys.

    I always feel impressed when I see him, he is huge, not always in his brightest colors, but always impressive.

  12. Feeding traces on #fossil leaves help #researchers identify factors leading to enormous #herbivore diversity phys.org/news/2023-08-fossil-f

    #FossilLeaves reveal drivers of herbivore functional diversity during the #Cenozoic pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2300

    "the diversity of #herbivorous #insects evolved over the last 60 million years primarily through the shared use of food #plants. The results are based on the analysis of feeding traces left by #arthropods on more than 45,000 fossil leaves."

  13. #Diplodocids were large #herbivorous #dinosaurs with long necks and long tails. In a previous study, it was believed that a hypothetical structure at the end of a diplodocid's tail, similar to the end of a whip, could move faster than the speed of sound (340 meters per second) and produce a #supersonic bang.
