A new leaf litter dwelling Adropion species (Tardigrada; Eutardigrada; Itaquasconinae) from the Northern Apennines (Italy) Matteo Vecchi https://t.co/JZBHcNJ6w3

Description of Macrobiotus kathyae sp. nov. (#Parachela: Macrobiotidae) and first records of tardigrades from Indiana (#USA) https://t.co/Sr6vu4a4rJ #Taxonomy

Conference season is gearing up! Are you getting ready for the **dreaded** #postersession with no clue where to start? Look no further! I had the opportunity to (re)design both some of my colleagues' + my own posters that haunted me. No more! Here to that 2⃣0⃣2⃣4⃣ glowup. (1/3)

Ecology explains anhydrobiotic performance across #tardigrades, but the shared evolutionary history matters more https://t.co/3HpPSIcmyj @SaraFirebolt @pittaro90

🚨 New paper! 🚨 @pittaro90, @DanielStec91 and others describe the ARI, a measure of #anhydrobiosis in #tardigrades, and analyze factors that affect survival in these microorganisms Check out the blog post and the paper published in @AnimalEcology https://t.co/KfxddTaFnm

The accessories came out of my paper!! The key charm of Paramacrobiotus metropolitanus embryo and the earrings of Macrobiotus shonaicus spermatozoa with shortened tails (the form for fertilizing!!). Thank you @hayato_rc !!

Male and female tardigrades are indistinguishable, so how do they tell the sexes apart? @ChartrainJusti1 shows that female tardigrades can smell both sexes, hanging out with both, but males ignore other males and are only attracted to the scents of females https://t.co/bg0AB3rySS

If you're interested in tardigrades and how they can find their mate, my first thesis chapter is FINALLY out! #tardigrade #matechoice #PhD https://t.co/xL16VivUsf

I am so excited tell you that @ChartrainJusti1's tardigrade work is out in the world in @J_Exp_Biol. 🌊🐻 She has spent over 2 years developing the protocol to make this paper a reality! Give this work some love & read about sex + chem. cues in the cutest microorganisms around!

#ProudPI 😌Two “first-from-thesis” papers published a few weeks apart. Well done Hennariikka and @ChartrainJusti1! Go team #tardigrade! @jyuscience Links in🧵:

The end is near! This **Friday at 12 p.m. Helsinki time**, to be precise. If you would like to watch my PhD defense live please feel free to slide into my DMs for the link. Poison frogs 🐸, ecology 🎍, behaviour 🔥 and surely some tears from my face! 🥲 @jyuscience @biobiiana

Yet another superpower that (some!) #tardigrade species have: survival to many repeated freeze-thaw events. Wanna know why? Check out our new OA paper: https://t.co/aajpGnw4So. Led by Dr Krzys Zawierucha and @pittaro90. @jyuscience #karhukainen

Tardigrades are tiny animals famous for being among the toughest organisms on the planet. Researchers of @uniofjyvaskyla have described a new species and reported a new incredible survival skill in another one of these mighty creatures: https://t.co/rNt3NFrgx6 #JYUnique #science

Water bear, moss piglet, tardigrade—whatever the name, they're all around us. Anywhere there's a thin film of water, there may be tardigrades. Including ones that are new to science. Introducing the fifth hakaiensis species! @RbcmHydroids @pittaro90 https://t.co/OvH3oSG5MP

Check out the last addition to the tardigrade genus Crenubiotus from Canada!!! Done together with @SaraFirebolt and @RbcmHydroids https://t.co/6874yNqV21

[#Tardigrades] Sisubiotus hakaiensis sp. nov. (Tardigrada, Macrobiotidae), a new tardigrade species from Calvert Island (British Columbia, Canada) 🔗 DOI: https://t.co/tbW6LUADvT ✒️ Matteo Vecchi (@uniofjyvaskyla), Henry Choong (@RoyalBCMuseum) & @SaraFirebolt #Tardigrada

Two new #tardigrade species with @pittaro90: Sisubiotus hakaiensis from Canada (@HakaiInstitute) and Macrobiotus naginae from Finland (our first “Tardi Potter”) #HarryPotter @jyuscience

You've heard of #dispersal via birds, mammals, and fish; new findings in @ESAEcology's #TheScientificNaturalist series adds to the list #tardigrades that disperse via #snails https://t.co/YdKljZMoGi #OpenAccess @vomitmuori @pittaro90 @SaraFirebolt @uniofjyvaskyla @jyuscience
