Dental Microwear Texture Analysis on Radular Teeth
Advanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 13, Issue 19, 6 October 2026.3D microwear textures reveal how gastropod radular teeth respond to controlled abrasive contact. Distinct surface signatures distinguish regular abrasion from fracture‐dominated material removal, showing how mineralized coatings, fibrous cores, and substrate properties jointly shape wear and failure in a biological scraping interface.

Flight of the dragons: a global review of migration in Odonata
Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 2134-2157, October 2026.ABSTRACT Insects are the most abundant and ecologically important animal migrants. Yet, we know relatively little about the patterns and processes underlying insect migration. Dragonflies (Anisoptera) and damselflies (Zygoptera) comprise the ancient insect order Odonata, whose ancestors were the first organisms to fly on Earth.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.This study investigated the evolutionary history and population structure of the genus Neaphaenops, using CO1 gene sequencing from 62 cave populations. The phylogenetic analysis revealed two distinct mega‐populations—northern and southern—separated by the Barren River, leading to the conclusion that the four proposed subspecies are invalid. The results

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.We report the first discovery of wild double‐flowered populations of the alpine dwarf shrub Rhododendron nivale on the eastern Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau. Two geographically isolated populations (> 800 km apart) show nearly identical stamen petaloidy and floral modifications in similar harsh high‐altitude habitats, suggesting possible parallel evolution ...
