Gall responses to drying habitats: Insights from the community of galling herbivores associated with the superhost Caryocar brasiliense Cambess. (Caryocaraceae)

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Drying processes in the Brazilian palm swamps or Veredas, impact the gall community in adjacent vegetation by reducing the abundance of more sensitive galls, while more resilient galls acclimate to increased dryness by developing thicker protective tissues. Abstract Galls are new plant organs formed in response to the stimuli of gall‐inducing organisms,

Biodiversity and its restoration in limestone quarries: a review

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Limestone quarries impact natural areas, and they are spreading in relation to human population growth. Little is known about the impact of limestone quarries and their restoration on biodiversity. Objectives This review aims to provide an overview of how biodiversity is assessed in limestone quarries, how it impacts biodiversity,

Trait‐based recovery of insect functional diversity following pine removal in a shrubland biodiversity hotspot

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction A primary goal of habitat restoration is the return of both taxonomic and functional diversity to support ecosystem resilience and functioning. This study assessed how insect functional biodiversity (focusing on beetles [Coleoptera] and ants [Formicidae]) responds to invasive pine (Pinus spp.) removal, in a Mediterranean‐type ...

Living in the Mycelial World

Topics 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 ...

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

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.
