Context‐Dependent Movement Responses of Large Carabids to Forest Gap Cuttings

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
This study investigates the effects of forest management on the movement of ground beetles within an oak‐hornbeam forest in northern Hungary. We compared a closed‐canopy control stand with various small‐scale canopy gaps. To track movement and habitat use within these treatments, two carabid species, Carabus ullrichii and C.

Population Status, Ecology and Conservation Challenges of Cattle Egrets (Bubulcus ibis), Especially in the Southern Africa Subregion: A Systematic Review and Evidence Synthesis

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
The Cattle Egret (Bubulcus ibis) occupies a wide range of natural and human‐modified habitats, yet research effort across its range is highly uneven. Our systematic review of 173 studies synthesises patterns in population trends, habitat use, breeding ecology, threats and ecosystem services, revealing strong geographic and thematic biases in available ...

Gut Microbiota Differences in Wild Asian Elephants From Pu'er, China

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
This study compared the gut microbiota of two wild Asian elephant populations in Jiangcheng (JC) and Liushun (LS), Yunnan, China. Significant differences in microbial structure, diversity, and function were found. Across samples, 24 phyla, 48 classes, 98 orders, 164 families, 288 genera, and 351 species were annotated.

Estimating Dispersal Kernels for Stream Periphyton Using Drifting Lake Algae

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
Summary of methods and procedures organized by aim and specific objectives. Drifting lake algae used as a proxy for periphyton dispersal. ABSTRACT Dispersal patterns are a key component of many ecological and evolutionary processes, yet they remain understudied in microbial species due to technical challenges.

Soil Contamination Around the Copper Smelter and the Use of Soil Microarthropods as Bioindicators

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 15, Page 11384-11403, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Soil contamination from smelter emissions, including heavy metals (HM), rare earth elements (REEs), and sulfur, poses a significant threat to soil ecosystems. In the immediate vicinity of the Głogów Copper Smelter, HM concentrations were several times higher than in more distant forest stands.
