Sirex noctilio, known as the European woodwasp, [1] European horntail woodwasp, [2] or sirex woodwasp, [note 1] is a species of horntail, native to Europe, Asia, and northern Africa. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] Adults vary in length from 9 to 36 mm ( 3 ⁄ 8 to 1 + 3 ⁄ 8 in).
Species distribution modelling (SDM), also known as environmental (or ecological) niche modelling (ENM), habitat modelling, predictive habitat distribution modelling, and range mapping [1] uses ecological models to predict the distribution of a species across geographic space and time using environmental data. The environmental data are most ...
Ceratophyllum demersum, commonly known as hornwort (a common name shared with the unrelated Anthocerotophyta), rigid hornwort, [2] coontail, or coon's tail, [3] is a species of flowering plant in the genus Ceratophyllum.
System information modelling (SIM) is the process of modelling complex connected systems. System information models are digital representations of connected systems, such as electrical instrumentation and control, power, and communication systems. The objects modelled in a SIM have a 1:1 relationship with the objects in the physical system.
Megarhyssa male adults reach body lengths going from 2.3 to 3.8 cm (0.9 to 1.6 inches), while female adults can measure from 3.5 to 7.5 cm (1.5 to 3 inches). [3] Both sexes can be distinguished because females have an extremely slender, and long organ to lay eggs called the ovipositor.
Polarized light pollution is perhaps the most compelling and well-documented cue triggering ecological traps. [10] Orientation to polarized sources of light is the most important mechanism that guides at least 300 species of dragonflies, mayflies, caddisflies, tabanid flies, diving beetles, water bugs, and other aquatic insects in their search for the water bodies they require for suitable ...
