Deforestation in the tropics is a major threat to forest‐specialist animals, many of which are already threatened with extinction. We assessed how forest fragmentation and its associated edge‐effects impact animal biodiversity in Northwest Madagascar using soundscape analysis and acoustic indices.

Distribution, scale, and drivers of mass mortality events in Europe's freshwater bivalves
Abstract Mass mortality events (MMEs) are decimating populations and compromising key ecosystem functions around the globe. One taxon particularly vulnerable to MMEs is freshwater bivalve mollusks. This group has important ecosystem engineering capacities and includes highly threatened and highly invasive taxa.

Yellow crazy ants (Anoplolepis gracilipes; YCA) are widespread invaders of islands across the Pacific and Indian Oceans. We investigated the ecological preferences and impacts of this species on a Polynesian atoll. We show that even at low abundances, this species can have important impacts on the fauna, including seabirds, and require management ...

Integrating ecological feedbacks across scales and levels of organization
In ecosystems, species interact in various ways with other species, and with their local environment. In addition, ecosystems are coupled in space by diverse types of flows. From these links connecting different ecological entities can emerge circular pathways of indirect effects: feedback loops.

Spring–Summer spatial dynamics of Palomena prasina (L.) and potential IPM strategies. ABSTRACT Palomena prasina (L.) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae), the green shield bug (GSB), is an important hazelnut pest in Southern Europe. Currently, its control focuses on insecticide spraying during the crop season. We hypothesized that, as for other pentatomid species,

LA PROTECTION JURIDIQUE INTERNATIONALE DE LA BIODIVERSITE MARINE
Il s’agit d’un article sur le droit international de l’environnement relatif à la protection des ressources biologiques des océans. Il a été conçu pour traiter de l’importance des impacts environnementaux lors de l’utilisation de la biodiversité marine comme matière première de la production industrielle, en analysant les instruments juridiques ...

Anticipating cosmetic emulsion stability using a novel multi‐analytical approach
A novel combination of granulometry, turbidimetry and rheology enables early detection of cosmetic emulsion instability—reducing assessment time from 30 to 8 days. This rapid method distinguishes stable from unstable emulsions under identical conditions, offering a powerful tool for formulation screening and industrial quality control.

Abstract Among the few species of Microcambeva reported as occurring in more than one hydrographic basin, M. ribeirae has been previously listed from both the Ribeira de Iguape and the Guaraqueçaba basins. However, morphological and molecular analyses revealed that the specimens from Guaraqueçaba represent a new species, which is described in this ...

Abstract The current challenge of defining growth forms in the non‐geniculate coralline red algae was addressed. Since the 19th century, those who have worked on this large and globally distributed group of algae have tried to summarize and systematically describe their growth forms. This effort resulted in a plethora of terms, which could sometimes be

The material has no significant difference in captures (non‐shiny cotton‐polyester screens vs. the shiny polyethylene screens), but the vertical screen attracted significantly more G. tachinoides for each type of material. Full white horizontal screen was significantly lower than the reference WATT.
