Taxon, Arboreality, Sex, and Season—Factors Influencing Gastrointestinal Parasite Occurrence in Zoo‐Housed Non‐Human Primates

Zoo Biology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The emergence of anthelminthic resistance is a well‐documented phenomenon in livestock and companion animals. Given the scarcity of new antiparasitic drugs, the implementation of effective, holistic anthelminthic control strategies is critical to preserving the efficacy of existing treatments.

First Non‐Invasive Monitoring of Fecal Steroids in Greater Caribbean Manatees (Trichechus manatus manatus)

Zoo Biology, EarlyView.
This study established the first fecal hormonal reference values (P4/E2) for the Greater Caribbean manatee. Using non‐invasive ELISA, the authors found no significant differences between mature and immature females, highlighting that long‐term monitoring and ultrasounds are essential to fully understand their complex reproductive cycles.

Demographic buffering in natural populations: A multi‐level perspective

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
We introduce a multi‐level framework that unites stochastic elasticities with nonlinear selection to test demographic buffering. Applying it across mammals reveals a key insight: ecological robustness to variability often decouples from evolutionary constraint, reshaping how we understand resilience under environmental stochasticity.

From the predator to the prey: a case study of the vulnerability of Harmonia axyridis to aggressive competitors

Insect Science, EarlyView.
The level of aggressiveness of an individual is a factor that shapes intraguild predation (IGP) interactions. In Nabis americoferus, high aggressiveness leads to an increase in attack rate and IGP against Harmonia axyridis. Moreover, the absence of extraguild prey seems to exacerbate IGP. In docile N.

Gut Microbiota of Gray Snub‐Nosed Monkeys: Adaptation to Seasonal Variations Through Energy Compensation and Thermogenesis

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Based on metagenome‐assembled genomes (MAGs), the gut microbiota of the gray snub‐nosed monkeys recovered 1229 non‐redundant MAGs. The gut microbiota showed an enhanced capacity to produce energy substrates with increased conversion activity of these substrates during winter.

Temporary Digital Enclaves: Temporary Linguistic Online Gambling Workers and a Collaborative Digital Community in the Philippines

Population, Space and Place, Volume 32, Issue 5, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Urban enclave scholarship has focused on ethnic enclaves as territorial formations produced by long‐term settlements and low‐wage migrant workers. This article critiques these presumptions by examining how Taiwanese temporary migrant workers in the online gambling industry in Metro Manila, the Philippines, produce a digital enclave organized ...

Defining AV2‐1 as a novel pharmacological probe to target human and rodent TRPV2

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 13, Page 3538-3557, July 2026.
Abstract Background and Purpose Transient receptor potential vanilloid 2 (TRPV2) is a non‐selective cation channel implicated in immune cell functions. However, progress in understanding TRPV2 has been limited by a lack of potent and selective pharmacological tools, particularly those targeting the human variant. We aimed to identify and characterise a

Sources of Variation in Fecal Haptoglobin in a Population of Wild Capuchin Monkeys (Cebus imitator)

American Journal of Primatology, Volume 88, Issue 6, June 2026.
Fecal haptoglobin values show significant seasonal variation in wild capuchin monkeys. Values are highest, and most variable in the early‐mid dry season, when fruit is typically scarce and water sources are standing pools, which can accumulate pathogens.

The flexible, the stereotyped and the in‐between: putting together the combinatory tool use origins hypothesis

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1235-1254, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Tool use research has long made the distinction between tool using that is considered learned and flexible, and that which appears to be instinctive and stereotyped. However, animals with an inherited tool use specialisation can exhibit flexibility, while tool use that is spontaneously innovated can be limited in its expression and facilitated
