Environmental DNA succeeds in detecting a low‐density population of endangered harlequin frogs

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 10, October 2026.
This work evaluates the use of environmental DNA (eDNA) to detect the Critically Endangered Jambato Harlequin Frog (Atelopus ignescens)—an iconic species once thought extinct and now known only from a single locality in the Ecuadorian Andes. Our study demonstrates the effectiveness of eDNA in detecting the Jambato in a low‐density amphibian population,

Crossroads of the Life of Vittorio Alfieri

Journal for Eighteenth-Century Studies, Volume 49, Issue 3, Page 375-392, September 2026.
Abstract This article examines Vittorio Alfieri's Life as a deliberately constructed narrative of cultural, linguistic, and political self‐fashioning within eighteenth‐century European intellectual networks. Rather than treating the autobiography as a transparent record of experience, the article argues that Alfieri retrospectively reorganizes his ...

When Resources Become Limited: Trophic Niches Shift From Generalism to Specialization in Dung Beetles (Coleoptera: Scarabaeinae)

Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Resource availability and predictability can shape trophic organization in ecological communities. In livestock pastures, cattle dung represents a highly abundant and predictable trophic subsidy for dung beetles, potentially promoting generalist foraging strategies. Here, we test how cattle exclusion affects trophic organization in dung beetle

Fluid Toxicities: Violent Affective Ecologies in Cartagena, Colombia

Antipode, Volume 58, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Water is at the centre of climate change emergency concerns in coastal cities. It constitutes here a fluid entry point to investigating the socio‐ecological politics of toxicities for residents dwelling with and against contaminated waters in Cartagena, Colombia's urban extensions.

Antipredatory Strategies of Anurans: An Updated Conceptual Review

Ethology, Volume 132, Issue 9, Page 662-708, September 2026.
To unravel the evolutionary dynamics of predator–prey interactions, we propose an updated, three‐tiered classification of anuran antipredatory strategies. By mapping non‐behavioral, individual, and group defenses across five functional phases, this integrative framework introduces the concept of synergetic coupling.

Peep, Squeal and Claim: Complex Territorial Call Emission Across Social Contexts in a Neotropical Torrent Frog

Ethology, Volume 132, Issue 8, Page 565-577, August 2026.
Males of Hylodes perere emit territorial calls ranging from simple to complex combinations of peep (A) and squeal (B) notes, often accompanied by visual signals. Because note A resembles advertisement call notes whereas note B resembles fighting calls, variations in territorial calls may represent a behavioral continuum conveying different levels of ...
