Surface complexity and gastropod exclusion drive colonization of an intertidal eco‐engineered structure

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 7, July 2026.
Habitat complexity and grazing by invertebrate molluscs shaped community structure and ecosystem functioning on eco‐engineered substrates through distinct mechanisms. Increasing structural complexity increased invertebrate species richness with limited effects on macroalgae and carbon flux, while grazer exclusion had strong effects on macroalgal ...

Global Expansion of Ponto‐Caspian Aquatic Invaders: Drivers, Trends and Taxonomic Biases in a Changing World

Freshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Biological invasions pose major threats to ecosystems, with aquatic habitats particularly vulnerable due to high connectivity and biodiversity. The Ponto‐Caspian region is widely recognised as a major source of highly invasive non‐native aquatic species, yet a global synthesis of their spatial, taxonomic and temporal invasion patterns has been

Mitochondrial Genomes of Klossia Species: The First Complete Extrachromosomal Sequence Data From Parasites in the Monoxenous Apicomplexan Family Adeleidae Mesnil, 1903 (Apicomplexa: Adeleorina)

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 73, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
ABSTRACT Complete mitochondrial genomes were sequenced and annotated from three Klossia species (Apicomplexa; Adeleorina) infecting snails in North America and Europe. Mitochondrial genomes of K. helicina (type species—NC_058857.1; 6728 bp), K. razorbacki (NC_058856.1; 6775 bp), and K.

Diet of juvenile skipjack herring Alosa chrysochloris: Ontogenetic shifts, predator–prey size ratios and mouth gape allometry

Journal of Fish Biology, Volume 109, Issue 1, Page 384-399, July 2026.
Abstract The skipjack herring Alosa chrysochloris inhabits Gulf of Mexico drainages, primarily the Mississippi River Basin, and estuarine environments in the Gulf of Mexico. The trophic ecology of the skipjack herring is poorly understood, therefore we quantified the length, mouth gape and gut contents of juvenile skipjack herring from the Mississippi ...

Ecosystem recovery in restored saltmarshes detected through invertebrate communities

Restoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 5, July 2026.
Abstract Introduction Saltmarsh ecosystems support rich biodiversity and provide key ecosystem services. Invertebrate communities underpin essential processes such as nutrient cycling and decomposition. However, saltmarshes have been widely degraded by land use change.
