"Common among moths is a mate-finding system in which females emit a pheromone, which induces males to fly upwind along the pheromone plume. Following the chemical identification of the pheromone of the domesticated silk moth in 1959, the number of moth species with identified p…

The contributors to Reactiving Elements explore how studying elements--as the foundations of the physical and social world--provide a way to imagine alternatives to worldwide environmental destruction.
"The contributors to Reactivating Elements examine chemicals as they mix with soil, air, water, and fire to shape Earth's troubled ecologies today. They invoke the elements with all their ambivalences as chemical categories, material substances, social forms, forces and energies…

Species that expand their geographical ranges provide unique opportunities to test fundamental questions in ecology and evolution. Monarch butterflies (Danaus plexippus) are best-known from their ancestral North American range but have greatly expanded their range over recent ev…
