(Archasia auriculata treehoppers)
Large treehopper facing you, tiny pink eyes, and a large leaf-like pronotum towering over long-ways Side view of the creature, showing how the pronotum resembles a small round leaf - the same texture as the oak leaves it's resting on, down to the tiny yellow "freckles"

I'm not sure which creature I want to shape a giant wooden version of next, but this magnificent Archasia auriculata treehopper is under serious consideration. I would love to have this creature bringing me happiness in physical form in my house. 💚

Silly tree hopper with a giant "helmet" shaped like half of a green heart, with little pink eyes peering at the bottom

I love them so much. They're like if a 💚 underwent mitosis and each half sprouted legs and went their separate ways. I should sketch this. Or someone should sketch this

Archasia auriculata treehopper - a new one to me!

Let's start with Organic Chemistry category.

Top traditional journals in this field are JOC (not in the list) and Org. Lett. (#4).

For #1, we get Carbohydrate Polymers. The reason for its sky-high IF? Papermills. Read more about it on FBS:

Mom I am famous!!: Someone named Edward Mason seems to be a fond observer of my sleuthing work. He even uploaded a preprint to ResearchGate to come up with some grant conspiracy. That's a first for me...

Hi folks! This is my first post on BlueSky and I am excited to start sharing some of my findings on research articles of questionable quality here. I am a microbial ecologist myself, but the papers I flag here and on pubpeer (user Archasia Belfragei) are not constrained to my own field of research.

Dr. Archasia Belfragei, you’re a straight-up, rigorous scholar. Thanks for all you’ve done for research integrity. God bless you.

A bright green and black and yellow striped leafhopper, Tylozygus geometricus, on a wooden surface. The leafhopper is streamlined, almost bullet shaped, and has black and yellow lines that cross it's face and the back of the pronotum (the area behind the head) the wings are green with tiny black lines that run front to back with a patch of black right at the back. The front of a gray green treehopper, Archasia pallida, resting on a light blue painted wood surface. The hopper is a light grayish green with a dark brown line along the crest that runs along the middle. The wings are transparent. A photo of a brown bullet-shaped leafhopper the Glassy-winged Sharpshooter, Homalodisca vitripennis. The front part of the hopper is brown with many tiny yellow spots, the hopper's large eyes are yellow with a black stripe through the upper part, thehopper's wings are transparent and held closely against the yellow and black spotted abdomen. A bright green treehopper, Ophiderma evelyna, resting on white cloth. The head and top part of the hopper is bright green, it's wings are transparent, showing the hopper's brown abdomen beneath.

Hi there, Dr. Archasia belfragei. I've got a question. How did you come across this research paper? Did you just pick it randomly, or was there some kind of a way to find it?

wow, Elsevier's made some solid progress. Kudos to Dr. Archasia Belfragei for their work. There are tons more of these fake celebrity scientists out there. Hope Dr. Belfragei uncovers even more of these phonies.

Thanks to Dr. Archasia belfragei for the work. Citation fraud is a seriously big deal in scientific integrity. But these problematic papers rarely get retracted—way less than those with image issues.

It seems another @elsevierconnect.bsky.social journal has been taken over by #papermill frauds & most likely #corrupt editors! Work by @academic-integrity.bsky.social and read all about it in @forbetterscience.bsky.social 👇 When will this madness stop?
