Methodology of the biological risk classification of animal pathogens in Belgium [PDF]

, 2010
The biological hazards posed by micro-organisms have lead to their categorisation into risk groups and the elaboration of classification lists. Current classification systems rely on criteria defined by the World Health Organization, which cover the ...

Citizen science reveals host‐switching in louse flies and keds (Diptera: Hippoboscidae) during a period of anthropogenic change

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
A study of louse flies in the United Kingdom, Isle of Man, and Ireland found 212 different interactions between Hippoboscidae and their hosts, of which 70 were previously unrecorded. No louse flies were found on aquatic species of birds. Host‐switching to gulls (Laridae) has occurred during a period in which these species have started relying on ...

Shorebird responses to fine‐scale water level fluctuations and macrofauna biomass in a newly constructed freshwater wetland

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Restoration of marine and freshwater wetlands for shorebirds is essential for the recovery of their declining populations. An ongoing approach is to restore shorebird habitats by large‐scale engineering, expecting the return of birds once suitable abiotic conditions are (re)established.

Comparing Sediment and Water eDNA Metabarcoding for Monitoring Aquatic Biodiversity in a Plateau Lake

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 1, January–February 2026.
Using multi‐locus eDNA metabarcoding of sediment and water samples collected from a plateau lake, this study systematically compared taxonomic diversity and community composition between the two sample types across the tree of life from archaea to mammals.
