Fletcheria gen. nov. (Ralfsiales, Phaeophyceae): A new crustose brown algal genus clarifying evolutionary relationships of Ralfsia pacifica

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract The genus Ralfsia was historically broadly circumscribed but has recently undergone significant taxonomic revision. Based on molecular data, a restricted Ralfsia sensu stricto was delineated that had many species reassigned to new genera and families.

Tracking Sodium Inside the Plant: Hydraulic Adjustments to Deal With Salinity

Journal of Agronomy and Crop Science, Volume 212, Issue 6, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Sorghum is a crop that has become more relevant in recent years due to its uses and properties (biofuel, gluten‐free flour) as well as its versatility to grow in unfavourable environmental conditions. Salinity is one of the main abiotic stresses affecting crop production and yield worldwide.

First Record of Triplet Embryos in Sea Turtles: Evidence of Natural Polyembryony in a Wild Green Turtle (Chelonia mydas) Nest From Guanahacabibes, Cuba

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
A rare case of polyembryonic triplets in a wild green turtle (Chelonia mydas) nest demonstrates how multiple embryos can develop within a single egg under natural conditions. Morphological and embryological evidence, including independent yolk vasculature and marked asymmetry among embryos, support a monozygotic origin and highlight developmental ...

Evaluating the protection status and exposure to warming of Caribbean reefs with high functional potential

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 5, October 2026.
Abstract Over the past decades, climate change has emerged as a major threat to global biodiversity, negatively affecting the integrity and functioning of ecosystems and the benefits they provide to people. To mitigate these impacts, it is essential to identify climate refugia that support the persistence of the structure and function of reef ...

Functional-biogeography of the reef fishes of the islands of the Gulf of California: Integrating functional divergence into marine conservation

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2018
The Gulf of California (GC) is a semi-closed sea in the Tropical Eastern Pacific and is recognised as a highly diverse marine ecosystem. Despite this status, this region is still poorly studied in comparison to other marine hotspots.

Continental‐wide prioritization of protected areas to address global and habitat‐specific goals for avian biodiversity conservation

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 5, October 2026.
Abstract The United Nations and European Union have set ambitious conservation goals to halt and reverse declines in biodiversity by protecting 30% of land and sea areas by 2030. Effective conservation planning requires evidence‐based spatial prioritization to maximize the coverage of species within designated protected areas.

A biodiverse housing market in hermit crabs: proposal for a new biodiversity index

Cuadernos de investigación UNED, 2012
Cuantificar la variación de la biodiversidad es un objetivo importante de la biología. Sin embargo, debido a que tales inventarios, en especial para la biodiversidad marina, son costosos, difíciles y consumen mucho tiempo, hay un gran valor en ...

Identifying hotspots of faunal data deficiency to direct urgent research and monitoring

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 5, October 2026.
Abstract Data deficiency is a substantial challenge for extinction risk assessments because incomplete data means we cannot accurately identify priority protected areas for conservation. Here, we use the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) distributions of amphibians, sharks and rays, fish, mammals, birds, and reptiles to identify ...
