Exploring Ant-Mollusk Interactions: Insights From Southern Spain. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
This study reports new data about ant‐mollusk interactions from accidental field observations, a quantitative analysis of the snail shells found in 16 Messor ant nest cleanings, and a qualitative analysis of 51 additional nests of different species. ABSTRACT Ants occupy a great variety of habitats, perform essential ecological roles, and interact with ...

Does bigger mean sicker? A systematic review and meta‐analysis of the intraspecific relationship between host body size and parasite infection across vertebrate taxa

Oikos, EarlyView.
Elucidating the determinants of parasite infection levels of individuals within a population is a basic but important step for understanding the roles of parasites in natural systems. Among intraspecific studies on vertebrate hosts and metazoan parasites, host body size (length/mass) is probably the most frequently reported factor determining parasite ...

A review of the historic and present ecological role of aquatic and shoreline wood, from forest to deep sea

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1091-1119, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

The impacts of biological invasions

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1255-1310, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Urbanization Shapes Dietary Composition and Snout Morphology of Salamanders

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 10, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Urbanization rapidly alters landscapes, generating habitat mosaics characterized by increased impervious surface, reduced soil moisture and diminished vegetation cover. These recurring urban environmental features are expected to reduce community diversity, favouring urban‐tolerant species, thereby promoting urban biotic homogenization ...

A revision of Praearcturus gigas: a giant scorpion from the Lower Devonian (Lochkovian) of Britain

Palaeontology, Volume 69, Issue 3, 2026.
Abstract Praearcturus gigas Woodward is a large arthropod of disputed affinity from the fluvial St Maughans Formation (Lower Devonian, Lochkovian) of the Old Red Sandstone of England and Wales. Originally described as an isopod in the nineteenth century, and subsequently compared to various arthropod groups, it was re‐described with limited ...
