  1. Scientists uncover #beetle transport system for newly identified towering nematodes phys.org/news/2026-05-scientis paper: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10

    "In 2025, #Konstanz scientists looked very closely at rotting fruit in local orchards, and observed what no one had before–hundreds of #worms twisting skyward into self-assembled living towers... #nematodes may be trying to hitchhike on #animals to reach new habitats... Now, they identified the carriers of the original worm towers: two sap-feeding #beetles"

  22. #Roundworms discovered in Great Salt Lake are new to science phys.org/news/2025-12-roundwor

    "#Nematodes are ubiquitous on Earth... Yet none had been positively detected in #GreatSaltLake until 2022, when expeditions by kayak and bike led by Julie Jung recovered nematodes in the lake's microbialites, the lithified mounds covering parts of the lakebed... nematodes became just the 3rd metazoan taxon known to inhabit the lake's highly saline waters, the other #animals being brine #shrimp and brine #flies"

  26. The sticky battle between microscopic #worms and predatory fungi comes with a genetic trade-off phys.org/news/2025-09-sticky-m

    "predatory #fungi use specialized traps—adhesive nets—to capture their nematode prey... the nematode gene nhr-66 controls the production of cuticular #collagens that enable #PredatoryFungi to adhere and capture the #nematodes... While reduced collagen expression helps worms evade fungal traps, it also weakens their protective cuticle, highlighting an evolutionary trade-off"
