Joint Angular Excursions and Angular Range Utilization During Stance‐Phase Locomotion in Terrestrial Mammals: A Comparative Morphofunctional Data Set

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, Volume 345, Issue 4, Page 361-376, May 2026.
This study quantifies stance‐phase joint angular excursions and angular utilization (AUI%) during walking in 182 terrestrial mammal species. Across mammals, total limb excursion during stance (TAE) decreases with increasing body mass, whereas AUI% remains broadly conserved, indicating similar proportional use of summed joint excursions to generate net ...

Amphibian Intestine Allometry

open access: yesJournal of Morphology, Volume 287, Issue 5, May 2026.
Total intestine length scales hyper‐allometrically, that is, at an exponent > 0.33, with body mass across vertebrates, including amphibians. ABSTRACT Across four large vertebrate groups—fish, reptiles, birds and mammals— intestine length has been shown to scale hyper‐allometrically with body mass (BM), at an exponent higher than the geometric ...

Foraging plasticity and physiological adaptations enable hummingbirds to subsist on dilute nectars

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 5, Page 1475-1490, May 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Hummingbirds frequently feed on small volumes (<30 μL) of sucrose‐rich nectars. Climate change is expected to affect both the abundance and the concentrations of accumulated nectar.

Physiological synergies in tolerance to freezing and drought stress reveal greater exaptation of Quercus to seasonally cold environments compared with Lithocarpus

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 5, Page 1532-1545, May 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Diversification in the genus Quercus, which includes tropical‐temperate transitions, is hypothesized to have been enabled by rapid colonization of new niches. To evaluate the role of ecophysiological adaptation to climate, we draw on close relatives in Lithocarpus and ...

New Insights Into the Distribution of Australian Butterflies (Lepidoptera: Papilionoidea) Provided by Citizen Science

open access: yesAustral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 2, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Butterflies are one of Australia's most popular and well‐studied invertebrate groups. Much butterfly research in the country is either led or supported by amateur entomologists and citizen scientists, and yet despite this, the recent and dramatic increase in the volume of publicly accessible citizen science butterfly observations has received ...

Plastid and nuclear phylogenomics of Cyphostemma (Vitaceae) provide new insights into genome size evolution across sub‐Saharan Africa

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 5, Page 1399-1420, May 2026.
Some African Cyphostemma species evolved much larger genomes as they adapted to dry, rocky habitats. These expansions are linked to succulent traits and specialization on nutrient‐rich limestone outcrops. The findings show how climate‐driven aridification shaped plant evolution and highlight broader genome‐environment patterns across flowering plants ...

Reduced Tillage Intercropping With Thymus hyemalis Reshapes the Rare Soil Microbiome and Co‐Occurrence Networks in a Semi‐Arid Almond Orchard

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment
Environmentally friendly farming practices are gaining interest, and intercropping is a promising option to protect soil health, yet its effects on orchard microbiomes and functions remain underexplored.
