A Novel Vertebrate Prey Item of the Bicycle Dragon (Ctenophorus cristatus), with a Systematic Review of Ctenophorus Dragon (Lacertilia: Agamidae) Diets

open access: yesAustral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 6, June 2026.
A bicycle dragon (Ctenophorus cristatus) consumes a Jan's banded snake (Simoselaps bertholdi) near the Gawler Ranges National Park in South Australia. This observation is unusual because vertebrate prey make up a vanishingly small portion of the Ctenophorus dragon diet.

Arboreal Duels in a Shared Niche: Direct Observations of Vinesnake (Thelotornis mossambicanus) Predation on Chameleons (Chamaeleo dilepis) Reveal Complex Foraging Dynamics

open access: yesAfrican Journal of Ecology, Volume 64, Issue 4, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Predator–prey interactions in three‐dimensional arboreal habitats are among the most complex and least observed ecological processes in terrestrial ecosystems. Here we report two predation events of the Eastern Vinesnake (Thelotornis mossambicanus) on the Flap‐necked Chameleon (Chamaeleo dilepis) in sand‐forest habitat of the Zambezi Delta ...

Religio‐Governmental Infrastructures: Islam, Infrastructure, and Populist Mobilization in Turkey

open access: yesAmerican Anthropologist, Volume 128, Issue 2, Page 272-283, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Turkish mosques are staffed by state‐appointed imams and callers to prayer whose practices are regulated through a complex bureaucratic network operating on an internet‐based data‐management and communication infrastructure. A centralized mosque loudspeaker network enables the broadcast of calls to prayer and other Islamic recitations across ...

Maternal Dyslipidaemia Aggravates Offspring Metabolic Dysfunction–Associated Steatotic Liver Disease

open access: yesBasic &Clinical Pharmacology &Toxicology, Volume 138, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Paediatric metabolic dysfunction–associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and steatohepatitis (MASH) display a distinct and severe histopathology. Maternal metabolic status may program offspring susceptibility to MASLD. This study investigated if maternal dyslipidaemia and low vitamin C (VitC) status influence offspring MASLD using a ...

Temperature and Resource Supply Drive Continental Variation in Size Structure of Freshwater Food Webs

open access: yesEcology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 6, June 2026.
Biological communities exhibit a consistent negative scaling between body size and abundance, yet how this relationship responds to warming remains unclear. Using ~670,000 individual body‐size measurements from stream food webs, we show that temperature effects on size structure depend strongly on resource supply, with warming leading to less negative ...

Impact of Female Mating Status on Male Courtship Behaviour in a Sexually Cannibalistic New Zealand Fishing Spider

open access: yesEthology, Volume 132, Issue 6, Page 373-384, June 2026.
Scoring of male courtship behaviour in Dolomedes minor revealed no effect of female mating status on courtship duration or sequence structure, but males delayed the initiation of courtship when encountering previously mated females. ABSTRACT The evolution of male courtship rituals has traditionally been attributed to female mate selection, but may also

Factors Influencing the Stocking of Juvenile Pikeperch (Sander lucioperca)

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 3, Page 425-437, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Predator species of fish play crucial roles in ecosystem balance through top‐down control, a mechanism frequently exploited in biomanipulation to stock predator species. Juvenile pikeperch (Sander lucioperca) were stocked (n = 52,887) in spring 2023 and 2024 and autumn 2023 to compare stocking efficiency between Recirculation Aquaculture ...
