CRAYFISH EPIBIONTS BRANCHIOBDELLA SP. AND HYSTRICOSOMA CHAPPUISI (ANNELIDA: CLITELLATA) IN GREECE
Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2007 Specimens of the three known Greek crayfish species, Astacus astacus (Linnaeus, 1758), Astacus leptodactylus Eschscholtz, 1823 and Austropotamobius torrentium (Schrank, 1803), were collected from seven localities in Greece and were examined for the ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.We present a novel method for extracting eDNA from whole bird nests and a LNA blocking oligonucleotide designed to reduce metabarcoding reads from nest building sparrows. Metabarcoding of 22 nests from a montane sagebrush steppe ecosystem detected 126 species, primarily insects, including putative diet items, ectoparasites, and confirmed nest predators.

iMetaMed, Volume 1, Issue 1, September 2025.A diverse reagent‐associated virome, including parvoviruses, misleads zoonotic surveillance. By leveraging large language models (ChatGPT‐4o), we construct a virus discovery data framework (PVDDC) and ParvoDB to access and correct host misattributions, thereby enhancing the accuracy of metagenomic surveillance for emerging zoonotic diseases.

Using fecal DNA metabarcoding to investigate the animal diet of black rails, yellow rails, and soras
Wildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 49, Issue 3, September 2025.We used fecal DNA metabarcoding to investigate the diet of yellow rails, Eastern black rails, and sora during the non‐breeding season. Arthropods, particularly ants, were prevalent in their diets, suggesting possible interactions with invasive red imported fire ants.

A new underwater camera trap for freshwater wildlife monitoring
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, Page 1625-1635, August 2025.Abstract Amphibians are among the most threatened groups of vertebrates worldwide and spend a significant part of their lifecycle in freshwater ecosystems. As for many freshwater organisms, monitoring their populations is limited by the lack of robust and standard methods applicable across large spatial scales.

The groundwater oligochaetes (Annelida, Clitellata) of Slovenia
Subterranean Biology, 2011 Historical data on the biodiversity of oligochaetes inhabiting ground waters of Slovenia depicted a fauna of 25 species, 19 of which are stygobiotic. Over about the last 35 years, faunistic surveys carried out in Slovenian ground waters has enabled us to
