The Reproductive Season of the Highland Stoneroller, Campostoma spadiceum, Evidenced by Museum Specimens [PDF]
The Highland Stoneroller (Campostoma spadiceum) was described as a distinct species in 2010. Since then, the only study specific to this species is a survey of distribution, and nothing is known about reproduction.

ABSTRACT Applying environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding to samples from waterholes and their surroundings offers a promising approach for monitoring terrestrial vertebrates in semi‐arid and arid ecosystems, such as the southern African savannas. However, minimal guidance exists on key sampling design parameters for terrestrial ecosystems, which can ...

SPECIATION IN NORTH AMERICAN BLACK BASSES, MICROPTERUS (ACTINOPTERYGII: CENTRARCHIDAE) [PDF]
The Pleistocene Epoch has been frequently cited as a period of intense speciation for a significant portion of temperate continental biotas. To critically assess the role of Pleistocene glaciations on the evolution of the freshwater fish clade Micropterus, we use a phylogenetic analysis of complete gene sequences from two mitochondrial genes ...

Participatory citizen science data complements agency‐collected data for species inventories
Citizen science data from iNaturalist and eBird can make meaningful contributions in complementing state agency‐derived species inventories of state parks in Florida. Agency data and citizen science data overlap in the species they document and each provides novel species in different parks.

Innervation Drives Postembryonic Expansion of the Zebrafish Anterior Lateral Line System
A dramatic expansion of the anterior lateral line system occurs during zebrafish ontogeny, largely driven by the addition of superficial neuromasts. Here, we describe a new hybrid‐origin mechanism of neuromast addition and uncover a larval‐stage developmental switch to an innervation‐dependent phase of expansion.
