Cover: The green dock beetle Gastrophysa viridula (photo: Thomas Endlein) and SEMs of its tarsal pads showing the varied types of adhesive setae (image: James Bullock). Each leg of the beetle supports three adhesive pads with hair types varying both between pads and between sexes, giving each a different function, as investigated by J. M. R. Bullock and W. Federle (pp. 1876-1888). Using these pads in different ways, the leaf beetles demonstrate impressive adhesive abilities, attaching with up to 40 times their body mass and allowing them to climb up and down both smooth and rough surfaces.Close Modal - PDF Icon PDF LinkTable of contents

Towards understanding the neural origins of hibernation
Madeleine Junkins, Sviatoslav Bagriantsev and Elena Gracheva review the role of the nervous system in hibernation, arguing that it actively promotes and supports the hibernation process rather than simply enduring it.
