First Record of Triops cancriformis (Branchiopoda: Notostraca) in Qatar: Its Origin and Range Expansion Inferred From Genetics, Morphology, and Reproduction [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.First record of Triops cancriformis is reported in Qatar using genetic, morphological, and reproductive data. The closest relative of this population is found in Germany. Dispersal of propagules is believed to be via avian seasonal migration. ABSTRACT The presence of Triops cancriformis has not been broadly reported outside Europe or North Africa ...

Impact on Plankton Communities Following Abandonment of Rice Cultivation and Biotope Creation [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.This study clarified changes in plankton communities during the first year of fallow in long‐term cultivated paddy fields in Kyoto. These fields were in a fallow state, with no planting, cultivation, or fertilization occurring. When water was introduced at the same time of year as during active use and the fields were converted into biotopes, diversity

Environmental RNA‐Based Metatranscriptomics as a Novel Biomonitoring Tool: A Case Study of Glyphosate‐Based Herbicide Effects on Freshwater Eukaryotic Communities [PDF]
Molecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 22, November 2025.ABSTRACT Traditional morphology‐ and molecular‐based biodiversity surveys provide essential information on species composition and diversity, but they rarely provide information about the physiological states of organisms, which are key indicators of ecosystem health.

Hidden-break diversity in pancrustacean rRNA profiles [PDF]
PeerJBackground In the 28S rRNA molecule of many invertebrates, a hidden break splits this large subunit into two noncovalently associated fragments (28Sa and 28Sb), masking 28S in electrophoretic profiles and biasing the standard measurements of RNA quality ...

Complete mitochondrial genomes of three fairy shrimps from snowmelt pools in Japan [PDF]
BMC Zoology, 2022 Background Fairy shrimps belong to order Anostraca, class Branchiopoda, subphylum Crustacea, and phylum Arthropoda. Three fairy shrimp species (Eubranchipus uchidai, E. asanumai, and E. hatanakai) that inhabit snowmelt pools are currently known in Japan.

Scaling of Extinction Time With Habitat Size in Experimental Populations [PDF]
Ecology Letters, Volume 28, Issue 7, July 2025.Theory predicts that extinction time scales with carrying capacity as either an exponential or power law. Extinction time in 35 laboratory populations was more consistent with a power law than exponential scaling. These have important implications to avoid underestimating extinction risk in natural and managed populations.

Fairy shrimp (Branchiopoda: Anostraca) of Chile camarón duende (Branchiopoda: Anostraca) en Chile [PDF]
Journal of Crustacean Biology, 2012 Portions of Chile were surveyed for Anostraca. Including the two species of Anemia previously reported from Chile, we found 5 new localities and range extensions for 5 species of Branchinecta. Previous studies on Chilean Anostraca have focused on Artemia,
