First Report on the Diet of the Angolan Flying Squid (Todarodes angolensis) in New Zealand Waters

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 3, September 2026.
The Angolan flying squid (Todarodes angolensis) is a southerly distributed, large‐bodied ommastrephid preyed upon by many large marine vertebrates such as the southern elephant seal and deep‐sea squalid sharks. Here, we report its diet in New Zealand waters for the first time, identifying prey items from the stomach contents of 58 adults using ...

The potential effect of megafaunal extinctions on modern conservation of horse chestnut Aesculus hippocastanum

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1563-1566, September 2026.
Many plant species worldwide are struggling to regenerate due to the ongoing effects of climate change. These effects appear to be further exacerbated by the loss of keystone megafauna, which were important seed dispersers. By identifying the traits commonly seen in seeds spread by modern elephants, it is possible to predict which species likely ...

Refusing the Feeling Rules: Arts‐Based Autoethnography as Emotional Resistance in Language Teacher Education

open access: yesTESOL Journal, Volume 17, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This study employs arts‐based autoethnography to examine the emotional labor of Wenxi, a raciolinguicized TESOL educator who navigates systemic inequities in a predominantly white post‐secondary education program in the United States. Drawing on digital artworks and narrative reflections created through an arts‐based workshop, the study ...

Political Animals: To Live & Die in More‐Than‐Human Worlds

open access: yesAmerican Anthropologist, Volume 128, Issue 3, Page 660-667, September 2026.
ABSTRACT What does it mean to live—and therefore die—in a more‐than‐human world? This review essay explores that question through reflections on teaching Political Animals: Species, Class, Race, and Gender, an undergraduate course that introduces students to scholarship on human‐nonhuman relations.

Two Paralogues as They Like It: Conserved and Divergent Evolution of Vertebrate Gcm Genes

open access: yesEvolution &Development, Volume 28, Issue 3, September 2026.
Comparative overview of Gcm1 and Gcm2 paralogues across vertebrates. Gcm2 is conserved in pharyngeal‐derived organs across gnathostomes, whereas Gcm1 shows lineage‐specific diversification from an ancestral pharyngeal context, including secondary loss in teleosts, distinct expression in bichir gills and skin, and broader expression in mammals ...

Killer Whales (Orcinus orca) in the Indo‐Pacific: A Review of Their Distribution, Population Structure, and Ecology

open access: yesMammal Review, Volume 56, Issue 3, September 2026.
This review synthesises knowledge on killer whales across the Indo‐Pacific through the integration of published studies and collaboration. It shows that variation in killer whale occurrence, diet, and fisheries interactions is shaped by environmental heterogeneity and uneven research effort and highlights knowledge gaps with implications for ...

The complex interaction between mammalian herbivores, climate, soil and fire has shaped the evolution and distribution of plant spinescence across biogeographical realms

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 6, Page 3640-3655, September 2026.
Evolution of spinescence in mimosoid legumes. Summary The evolutionary arms race between plants and herbivores led to numerous plant adaptations, including spinescence. However, the balance between herbivory and abiotic conditions in the evolution of spinescence remains unclear. We integrated phylogenetic, geographic, and trait data for 2686 species of
