		Debate The taxonomist - an endangered race. A practical proposal for its survival Heike Wägele, Annette Klussmann-Kolb, Michael Kuhlmann, Gerhard Haszprunar, David Lindberg, André Koch, J Wolfgang Wägele Frontiers in Zoology 2011, 8:25 (26 October 2011) Abstract \| Full text \| PDF \| PubMed
		Research Maternal effects mediated by egg quality in the Yellow-legged Gull Larus michahellis in relation to laying order and embryo sex Diego Rubolini, Maria Romano, Kristen J Navara, Filiz Karadas, Roberto Ambrosini, Manuela Caprioli, Nicola Saino Frontiers in Zoology 2011, 8:24 (19 October 2011) Abstract \| Full text \| PDF \| PubMed \| Cited on BioMed Central
		Research Sex-inducing effect of a hydrophilic fraction on reproductive switching in the planarian Dugesia ryukyuensis (Seriata, Tricladida) Kazuya Kobayashi, Motonori Hoshi Frontiers in Zoology 2011, 8:23 (17 October 2011) Abstract \| Full text \| PDF \| PubMed \| Editor’s summary When asexual worms are fed homogenised sexual worms, they switch to sexual reproduction. This change is triggered by the synergistic effects of chemical compounds within the sexual worms which induce sex.

		Research Hybridization in East African swarm-raiding army ants Daniel JC Kronauer, Marcell K Peters, Caspar Schöning, Jacobus J Boomsma Frontiers in Zoology 2011, 8:20 (22 August 2011) Abstract \| Full text \| PDF \| PubMed
		Research Structural aspects of leg-to-gonopod metamorphosis in male helminthomorph millipedes (Diplopoda) Leandro Drago, Giuseppe Fusco, Elena Garollo, Alessandro Minelli Frontiers in Zoology 2011, 8:19 (22 August 2011) Abstract \| Full text \| PDF \| PubMed \| Editor’s summary Adult male millipedes modify their anterior legs into sexual appendages for sperm transfer during copulation, involving a huge rearrangement of their internal anatomy and the displacement of their ventral nerve cord and digestive tract.
