Benthos of the Bijagós

, 2022
The Bijagós Archipelago hosts large populations of migratory shorebird species, which spend the non-breeding period of their annual cycle in this area. For this reason, it as caught the interest of ecologists and ornithologists studying these birds. Benthic macroinvertebrates, despite being a major factor in hosting such large concentrations of their ...

Depleted Dissolved Oxygen Concentrations Impair the Embryonic and Early Larval Development of Eastern Hellbenders (Cryptobranchus alleganiensis)

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, Volume 345, Issue 2, Page 112-126, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Depletion of dissolved oxygen (DO; hypoxia) and its influence on sensitive fauna and vulnerable life stages is an emerging concern in lotic freshwater ecosystems. A species particularly vulnerable to hypoxia is the Eastern Hellbender—a large‐bodied, fully aquatic salamander which relies on cutaneous respiration and has evolved to thrive in ...

Larval Development of the New Zealand Deep Water Scampi, Metanephrops challengeri (Balss, 1914) (Decapoda: Nephropidae)

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 1, March 2026.
The New Zealand scampi, Metanephrops challengeri, is a lobster species which has an extensive distribution on much of the continental shelf and slopes around the country in depths between 140 and 640 m. This species is important ecologically, and forms the basis of a valuable commercial fishery.

Non-indigenous macroinvertebrate species in Lithuanian fresh waters, Part 1: Distributions, dispersal and future

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2012
Biological invasions are of increasing global concern. They impact on biodiversity and may result in high economic loss. This demands improvement in knowledge of the dynamics of species dispersal with the goal of preventing future ...

Dietary resilience of coral reef fishes to habitat degradation

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 3, Page 397-417, March 2026.
Metabarcoding of gut contents shows that two common benthic‐feeding reef fishes with different feeding stratgies—a butterflyfish (Chaetodon capistratus) and a hamlet (Hypoplectrus puella)—shift diets on degraded reefs. These shifts mirror contrasting patterns in body condition: butterflyfish showed strong individual variation, whereas condition was ...

Behavioral Evidence of Predator–Predator Commensalism: Cobia Track and Feed on Prey Disturbed by Southern Stingrays

Ethology, Volume 132, Issue 3, Page 225-234, March 2026.
We documented a novel predator–predator commensal foraging interaction between cobia (Rachycentron canadum) and a southern stingray (Hypanus americanus) in a shallow coastal habitat of Biscayne Bay, Florida. Using drone‐based observations, we recorded a 7‐min sequence in which a cobia closely tracked the stingray's movements and fed on prey disturbed ...

Century‐Scale Changes in the Feeding Patterns of Demersal Fish Species in the Western North Sea

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 2, Page 99-115, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding the extent and magnitude of change in marine food webs requires historical data that predates modern monitoring efforts. Such information can provide invaluable insights into the longer‐term impacts of altered trophic interactions, yet it is rarely incorporated into marine policy frameworks.

Assessment of Bottom Trawl Impacts on the Status of Seabed Communities in European Seas

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 2, Page 285-299, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Bottom trawling affects seabed habitats, but its large‐scale impacts remain poorly quantified. Assessment of trawling impacts is essential to support monitoring and achieving sustainability objectives under international conventions, sustainable development goals, and seafood certification programs.

Long‐Term Changes in Dominant Fisheries Species and Their Relationship With Surface Oceanic Conditions in the Waters Around the Korean Peninsula From 1980 to 2019

Fisheries Oceanography, Volume 35, Issue 2, Page 267-284, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The waters surrounding Korea are an economically–ecologically important region due to their high fishery productivity and role as seasonal migratory routes for the spawning and growth of commercially valuable species. We evaluated temporal changes in dominant fisheries species in encompassing large marine ecosystem (LME) areas 47, 48, and 50 ...
