What is hidden under our pontoons? Abundance and distribution of filter feeders (bivalves and tunicates) in the port area revealed. Artificial intelligence: an interesting analysis tool?

Frontiers in Marine Science
Urbanization is particularly prevalent along the coast, causing a considerable change in the ecology of the habitats found there. Ports, docks and all the structures linked to this anthropization modify the coastal environment by providing new niches ...

Ingestion of Alexandrium pacificum Cysts by a Deposit Feeder: An Option for Ecosystem‐Based Approach Benefiting Aquaculture and Coastal Communities?

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 1, March 2026.
Harmful algal blooms caused by the paralytic shellfish toxin‐producing species Alexandrium pacificum have increased in recent years in one of the most important aquaculture regions of New Zealand, the Marlborough Sounds. Reoccurring blooms have created large cysts beds in the sediments throughout the sounds. In this region, large populations of the sea

Dietary Spirulina Ameliorates Arsenic‐Induced Toxicity in Nile Tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 2, March 2026.
Arsenic contamination poses serious risks to Nile tilapia by reducing growth, feed efficiency and haemoglobin, while elevating blood glucose and muscle arsenic levels. This 56‐day feeding trial evaluated the protective role of spirulina (20 g/kg) under varying arsenic exposure.

Habitat Influence on Epigeic Spider Diversity in Silaka, Langeni and Kambi Forests, Eastern Cape, South Africa

African Journal of Ecology, Volume 64, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT In this paper, we explore spider diversity and the effects of habitat types on spider distribution in the three different types of habitats in Eastern Cape Province of South Africa. This serves as an invaluable tool for biodiversity assessment while documenting the presence of spiders taxa across different habitats in the selected study areas.

Morphological and biomechanical adaptations of larval mandibles in Trichoptera (Insecta)

Physiological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, Page 85-114, March 2026.
Mandible morphology differs between predators and grazers: predators show pointed incisors, grazers sharp edges and setae. Mechanical properties depend on cuticle tanning, not elemental reinforcement. Functional mandible types reflect feeding strategies, with predators specialized for prey capture and grazers for scraping and collecting.
