Anthropogenic infilling of a Bermudian sinkhole and its impact on sedimentation and benthic foraminifera in the adjacent anchialine cave environment

open access: yesInternational Journal of Speleology, 2017
In the mid-20th century, an inland brackish pond from Bermuda, known as Eve’s Pond, was filled with marine sediment from an adjacent coastal lagoon. At this time, an eyewitness reported “…sediment billowing out of the Green Bay Cave for days…”, which is ...

Stygobitic crustaceans in an anchialine cave with an archeological heritage at Vodeni Rat (Island of Sveti Klement, Hvar, Croatia)

open access: yesInternational Journal of Speleology, 2021
A group of four amphoras found in the anchialine cave of Vodeni Rat in the Croatian island of Sveti Klement, on a rocky ledge at 24 m water depth, indicates that a freshwater source was exploited at the bottom of this karstic pit by islanders and/or ...

Stony Corals and Their Associated Fauna Residing in Marine Lakes under Extreme Environmental Conditions

open access: yesDiversity
Tropical marine lakes are small land-locked marine waterbodies occurring in karstic coastal areas. During biodiversity surveys in 12 marine lakes in Raja Ampat, Southwest Papua province, Indonesia, we recorded at least 37 species belonging to 29 genera ...

Diversification and evolution of Hawaiian Megalagrion damselflies (Pinapinao, Odonata: Coenagrionidae) Ka Ho‘omāhuahua a me ke Kumu Ho‘omohala o nā Pinapinao Megalagrion o Hawai‘i (Odonata: Coenagrionidae)

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, January‐March 2026.
The ancestor of today's pinapinao, Hawaiian Megalagrion damselflies, diverged from Ischnurinae around 51 MA and likely evolved for over 20 MA before colonizing the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands. An ancestor of Megalagrion colonized the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands and diversified into ecological niches with four new breeding habitats and two new gill ...

Far From Roads, Challenges Arise: Unravelling Knowledge Gaps in the Occurrence of Cave‐Restricted Species on the African Continent

open access: yesAfrican Journal of Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 8, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Understanding patterns of biodiversity distribution is fundamental for ecology, biogeography, and conservation. However, persistent challenges arise from the inaccessibility of many regions and habitats. Subterranean environments, in particular, host highly distinctive and specialised faunal assemblages, yet their investigation is hindered by ...

A Comprehensive Occurrence Dataset for European Ostracoda Inhabiting Groundwater and Groundwater‐Dependent Ecosystems

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 34, Issue 6, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Motivation Groundwater ecosystems sustain a unique and globally important biodiversity but remain understudied due to sampling and exploration challenges, as well as a shortage of taxonomic experts. Groundwater ostracods, like other groundwater taxa, exhibit a high degree of endemism, rarity and subterranean specialisation, positioning them as

EGCop: An Expert‐Curated Occurrence Dataset of European Groundwater‐Dwelling Copepods (Crustacea: Copepoda)

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 34, Issue 1, January 2025.
ABSTRACT Motivation Subterranean biodiversity is increasingly threatened by multiple intertwined anthropogenic impacts, including habitat loss, pollution, overexploitation of resources, biological invasions and climate change. Worryingly, subterranean biodiversity is still poorly represented in conservation agendas, also due to persisting gaps in our ...

Co‐benefits between biodiversity and hydrological ecosystem services allow an efficient conservation planning proposal for the Riviera Maya, Mexico

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 6, Issue 12, December 2024.
The results confirm: (1) Biodiversity and HES priority sites have different spatial patterns, sharing only 24% of priority sites, (2) HES priority sites achieve a high percentage (95%) of biodiversity conservation targets, showing that they can potentially be used for biodiversity representation, and (3) integrating HES and biodiversity into one model ...
