Biblio.com - Used & Rare Books from Independent Booksellers Project Gutenberg Australia Diogenes λύχνον μεθ' ἡμέραν ἅψας, “ἄνθρωπον,” φησί, “ζητῶ.” Diogenes Laertius, Vita philosophorum, 6.41 Diogenes is a desktop/laptop application for searching and browsing the legacy databases of texts in Latin and ancient Greek that were once published on CD-ROM by the TLG and the PHI.

Catalogue of Life - 2011 Annual Checklist :: Search all names Ants Filmed Performing Bizarre 'Funeral Ritual' for Fallen Bumblebee | Mysterious Universe This week, a video of a bizarre scene in the insect world vent viral, prompting a larger conversation about the animal kingdom and how we interpret it. The video appears to show a group of ants performing some sort of funeral ritual for a dead bumblebee – or at least that’s how many viewers interpreted it. Is this evidence of some sort of interspecies cultural rite, or merely a coincidental grouping of objects? The video does portray an admittedly odd spectacle. A dead bumblebee sits in the center of a pile of pink flower petals as ants appear to be dragging more petals to add to the pile. Must have been some bee. Of course, there are many ways of interpreting this animal “funeral,” many of which don’t involve overlaying our human perspective onto what may merely be a random occurrence. Does this video show something truly remarkable? Sure beats the funerals most animals get. Remember: all that stands between your dog and your face is a bowl of food.

Le sexe engendre les sexes Dans la plupart des forêts du monde, peuplant les vieilles souches, vit le champion du sexe toutes catégories : Schizophyllum commune, un petit champignon blanc. En effet, chez cette espèce il n’existe pas deux mais… 23 000 sexes différents ! Cette profusion des sexes a un avantage : elle multiplie le nombre de partenaires possibles. Ce champignon peut se reproduire avec 22 999 types sexuels sur les 23 000 disponibles, alors que le système mâle-femelle n’offre qu’une catégorie de partenaires possibles. Malgré cet énorme avantage, les espèces à deux sexes restent largement majoritaires sur Terre. George Constable, mathématicien à l’université de Bath, au Royaume-Uni, et Hannah Kokko, biologiste de l’université de Zurich, en Suisse, ont développé un modèle mathématique de génétique des populations visant à mieux comprendre les contraintes qui limitent, au sein de la biodiversité, la profusion des sexes.
