Human culture is uniquely open-ended rather than uniquely cumulative
Theories of how humans came to be so ecologically dominant increasingly centre on the
adaptive abilities of human culture and its capacity for cumulative change and high-fidelity …

Conspicuousness, phylogenetic structure, and origins of Müllerian mimicry in 4000 lycid beetles from all zoogeographic regions
Biologists have reported on the chemical defences and the phenetic similarity of net-winged
beetles (Coleoptera: Lycidae) and their co-mimics. Nevertheless, our knowledge has …
