Cryptobenthic reef fishes may not be safe from invasive lionfish (Pterois spp. Oken, 1817)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Lionfish (Pterois spp.) are hypothesized to negatively influence cryptobenthic reef fish assemblages through predation. We evaluated these potential effects on Caribbean reefs in Costa Rica and tropical reefs in Brazil. Brazil provided a reference condition for cryptobenthic assemblages prior to lionfish invasion, while the Costa Rica sites ...

Comprehensive revision of Mallomonas sect. Peroneides stat. nov. (Chrysophyceae) integrating morphology and multigene phylogeny

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Mallomonas is among the most diverse genera of Chrysophyceae, yet many of its lineages remain taxonomically unresolved due to limited molecular sampling. Mallomonas series Peronoides, historically limited to four species, has posed persistent taxonomic difficulties, most notably the long‐standing and problematic reliance on a rare ...

Subsistence hunting shapes the spatial variation of jaguar densities in community‐managed forests

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, EarlyView.
Jaguars and people can coexist in community‐managed forests, but distance matters. In Guatemala's Maya Biosphere Reserve, jaguar numbers increased markedly in areas harder to reach on foot, yet jaguars were still found near communities, showing that responsibly managed forests can support jaguar populations while allowing people to maintain traditional
