Extending sampling approaches for great crested newt (Triturus cristatus) eDNA monitoring

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 6, Issue 4, October–December 2025.
Environmental DNA (eDNA) monitoring has been used for great crested newt (Triturus cristatus) survey in the UK since the publication of a Defra‐funded trial in 2014 and approval of a regulated protocol. Our study provides evidence that changes to this protocol, including use of filtration for eDNA capture and permitting eDNA surveys in July and August,

Origin and colonization history of the white-clawed crayfish, Austropotamobius pallipes, in Ireland [PDF]

Heredity, 2003
The presence of the white-clawed crayfish Austropotamobius pallipes complex in Ireland is suspected to be a result of human translocations. Two hypotheses have been formulated about the origin of the crayfish: from British populations or from western French populations.

Design and Validation of a Single‐Species Environmental DNA qPCR Assay for the Detection of the Invasive Chinese Mitten Crab Eriocheir sinensis

Environmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 5, September–October 2025.
The Chinese mitten crab (Eriocheir sinensis) is considered amongst the most damaging invasive species globally; however, the UK distribution of the species is not well known, with current management protocols reliant on reports of individual sightings. In this study, the first probe‐based, species‐specific qPCR assay was developed for the detection of ...

Revealing hidden sources of uncertainty in biodiversity trend assessments

Ecography, Volume 2025, Issue 5, May 2025.
Idiosyncratic decisions during the biodiversity trend assessment process may limit reproducibility, whilst ‘hidden' uncertainty due to collection bias, taxonomic incompleteness, and variable taxonomic resolution may limit the reliability of reported trends.
