Shedding light on the parasite communities and diet of the deep‐sea shark Deania profundorum (Smith & Radcliffe, 1912) (Squaliform: Centrophoridae) from the Avilés Canyon (southern Bay of Biscay)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Deep‐sea elasmobranchs are less resilient to the increasing scale of anthropogenic impacts such as fisheries, owing to their life‐history traits. The necessity for proper management measures is hampered by the scant knowledge on these taxa and their biology. Here we provide the first comprehensive insight into the parasite infracommunities and

Effects of restoration on macrophyte and macroinvertebrate ecological status and biodiversity in lowland streams in Denmark

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Habitat restoration is applied to promote ecological recovery in degraded freshwater systems. However, it remains unclear whether stream restoration measures enhance Water Framework Directive (WFD) ecological status and biodiversity.

Return of the ants: investigating temporal and spatial patterns of ant colonization in unsealed schoolyards

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Urban soil unsealing, the removal of impervious surface layers, is increasingly promoted as a habitat restoration strategy to enhance ecosystem resilience in cities. Yet, its potential to support soil biodiversity from the onset remains underexplored.

Restoration age, distance from reference ecosystems, and host plant feeding guilds shape the diversity of frugivorous butterflies in ecological restoration areas in the Atlantic Forest

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction The fragmentation of the Atlantic Forest has caused severe biodiversity loss. In Paraná State, more than 96% of the original vegetation, predominantly semideciduous seasonal forest, has been degraded. Ecological restoration is a key strategy to reverse this scenario, aiming to recover environmental conditions equivalent to the ...

Living in the Mycelial World

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract This manuscript documents a systematic ethnomycological analysis of ethnographic archives. Focusing on texts describing human–fungi interactions, I conduct a global, cross‐cultural review of mushroom use, covering 193 societies worldwide. The study reveals diverse mushroom‐related cultural practices, emphasizing the significance of fungi ...
