Marine Parasite Biogeography Mirrors Host Patterns Across Latitude, Area, and Diversity

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 2, June 2026.
Parasites are integral components of biodiversity, yet they remain poorly represented in large‐scale biogeographic theory. In this study, we test whether marine parasites follow three macroecological patterns established for free‐living taxa, namely that parasite species richness: (1) scales positively with area (both host body size and geographic area)

Sequence and structural alignments reveal insights into ANKLE2 evolution and function

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract ANKLE2 is an enigmatic protein with emerging roles in cell division, development, and virus replication. While ANKLE2 orthologs are present in all animals, its domain composition has evolved over time. ANKLE2's two namesake domains, the ankyrin repeat and LEM domains (named for LAP2, Emerin, and MAN1), have clear and defined roles; however ...

Description of a New Species of Eusynstyela (Ascidiacea: Stolidobranchia) from Okinawa, Japan with Molecular Insight into Its Phylogenetic Position

Species Diversity
The colonial styelid genus Eusynstyela Michaelsen, 1904 comprises 12 species. Seven colonies of Eusynstyela were collected via SCUBA diving from three coastal sites in Okinawa, Japan, between 2018 and 2023.

Internalized Evolutionary Inertia on Body Plan Evolution

Evolution &Development, Volume 28, Issue 2, June 2026.
Animal development appears to intrinsically bias phenotypic evolution, though the exact mechanism is unclear. This review discusses potential mechanisms by which animal embryogenesis limits phenotypic diversification and considers whether inherent evolutionary inertia could allow us to predict future evolutionary paths.

Native and Non‐Native Populations Respond Unevenly to River Barrier Removals

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 6, June 2026.
While barrier removals restore river connectivity and promote recovery of native populations, they may also facilitate non‐native species, creating a ‘connectivity conundrum’. Using a systematic review and meta‐analysis, we show that both native and non‐native populations can benefit from barrier removal, with outcomes being context‐dependent ...
