Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.Konza Prairie Biological Station, located within one of the largest remaining areas of native tallgrass prairie, is unique in that grazing and prescribed burn treatments, as well as surface water permanence, vary spatially. We found that aquatic macroinvertebrate communities vary with streamflow permanence, but not grazing presence or prescribed burns ...

Journal of Morphology, Volume 287, Issue 3, March 2026.1. The skull features a broad, dorsoventrally flattened frontal region articulating with an elongated upper jaw that is complemented by the mandible's downward bend along its proximal half. 2. The low mechanical advantage in the mandible is attributed to the reduced and shallow insertion areas of the adductor muscles, which are positioned close to the ...

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 1, March 2026.Seagrass habitats are widely recognised as key nursery areas for juvenile fish, yet their specific role in supporting growth and condition remains incompletely understood. This study investigates the diet, growth and condition of juvenile (0+) snapper (Chrysophrys auratus) across multiple habitats in the Hauraki Gulf and northeastern New Zealand, with ...

Mass Die‐Off Events in Swarming Hyperiid Amphipods: Potential Drivers
Ecology and EvolutionBeach mass stranding events of marine organisms, widely documented worldwide, are triggered by a range of biotic and abiotic environmental factors, often unexplained. Such occurrences among pelagic crustaceans are less frequent, yet not uncommon. Here we

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 1, March 2026.Freshwater eels of the Anguilla genus are experiencing global decline, largely driven by human activity. In Aotearoa‐New Zealand, tuna (both shortfin and longfin eels) are similarly affected, with habitat fragmentation and modification key drivers of their decline.

Ecology and EvolutionSubterranean and surface habitats are in stark contrast in several environmental factors. Therefore, adaptation to the subterranean environment typically impedes the (re)colonisation of surface habitats.

SEX RECOGNITION AMONG AMPHIPODS
The Biological Bulletin, 1903 How do males of the amphipod crustacea distinguish the females ? It is well known that the males of the Gammaridea have the curious habit of carrying the females under their body for a considerable time. This act of transportation has probably no further significance in relation to the fertilization of the eggs than to secure the proximity of the two ...

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 1, March 2026.Rotifers perform key functions in aquatic food webs and respond to environmental changes, thus providing sensitive indicators of water quality. However, rotifers are small, highly diverse, and difficult to identify for those lacking expertise. Monogononta are the largest taxonomic class of rotifers with over 1500 species described globally, and around ...

Translocating Intact Assemblages to Degraded Sites to Accelerate Ecological Recovery
New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 1, March 2026.Estuarine ecosystems are threatened by anthropogenic pressures such as climate change, coastal development, and increased nutrient and sediment inputs. These pressures are deteriorating ecological health and threatening the functioning and services that estuarine ecosystems provide.
