The #FreeToRead #EditorsChoice article for the issue investigated the effect of receptor tyrosine kinase family member #CAD96CA on hormone signalling and #ontogeny of #silkworm.
Why not give it a read?

#arthropod #moulting - our synthesis contrasts knowledge based on reported observations with reasonably plausible assumptions given current taxonomic sampling, & exposes weak assumptions or major gaps that need addressing. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....
#換羽 中の #バリケン くん、動画もあった。
翼から出てる筆みたいなモノを自分でかじっていって新しい羽を出すんですって。
(動画内では全くやらないけど)
後半、通りかかったメスに気づいて呼びかけている。

A male Domestic Muscovy duck (Cairina moschata) in moultig season, viewed from above. In the middle of his wings, four thick feather sheaths are visible. New feathers are emerging from the tips of the shafts. At a city park in Japan, October 2015.
An enlarged view of feather sheaths.
#バリケン (カモのなかま) の #換羽 の様子。 太い羽鞘の先端から新しい羽が出てきているのが見える。
大きい羽だと迫力があって、初めて見たときちょっと怖かった。
一列に生えかわっていっているようにみえるけど、実際どうなのかしら？

What a surprise! New buddies have "given birth" 🍾. Yay once again.
#porcellionidespruinosus #oreocrumble #isopods with a few of their #mancae. The others are hiding somewhere. There are lots of em. *Screams internally* one of them seems to have started #moulting.

Nice update of the @moultdb database, with iNaturalist observations integrated with genomic data and scientific observations from extant and fossil species!

This lil spood just finished moulting! (That’s when they shed their old exoskeleton to grow!) It’s like a glow-up in the spider world ✨
They’re resting now while their new body hardens - totally normal and super cool to witness! #moulting #molting #jumpingspider
Adult (Scruffy) Blue Tit now going into its post breeding feather moult, a bit early for it, it could of lost its nest early. #garden #birds #moulting #nature #wildlife #UKBirds #BritishBirds #CheshireUK
Cool to see their private moments. Lucky to have spotted it in action.

2/3: …Several of the seals have a brownish coat colour because they haven’t yet completed their annual moult which usually begins in early spring. As the old worn and discoloured coat hair begins to rub or wear off, the silvery grey and black spotted new coat is revealed…. #moulting #moultingseason
Summer seems to be getting nearer every day☀️
With patience and care, we give Midnight and Noir a helping hand with removing their winter fluff. A great way to improve heat regulation and hygiene while strengthening the human-animal bond.

Spiky plant frond dominates the middle of the photo, the bone-white former exoskeleton holding on at the upper right, the yellow-brown freshly moulted grasshopper holding on at the lower left. 9:16 vertical photo with black background due to flashes, macro lens settings, and nothing reflective close enough to the subjects.

Shouldn’t have bothered vacuuming earlier. I’ve already picked up several clumps of kitty fur in the intervening half hour. #moulting
