Pilliga Ghosts: The Novel Fungi of the Rivers, Creeks, Lakes, and Dams of the Narrabri Region, Australia

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
Freshwater systems of the semi‐arid Narrabri region, Australia, are hotspots of novel fungal and eukaryote diversity, dominated by zoosporic fungi and unclassified lineages. ITS‑based DNA and water chemistry analyses across various water bodies revealed strong seasonal patterns, a scarcity of aquatic hyphomycetes that may reflect environmental ...

Bottom Grinding Increases the Phototrophic Bacteria While Reduces Bacterial Community Stability in Sea Cucumber Cultural Ponds

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
Effects of bottom grinding (BG) on bacterial communities in sea cucumber ponds were investigated. BG enhanced Cyanobacteria but reduced Proteobacteria in water bacterial communities. A more complex but unstable bacterial community was observed in ponds after BG. BG improved the migration and stochastic assembly of bacterial communities. ABSTRACT Bottom

A Chronicle of Disrupted Flows—Bordering of the Amphibious Bengal Delta

open access: yesArea, Volume 58, Issue 2, June 2026.
Short Abstract The Sundarbans is often framed as a climate crisis hotspot, a perspective that risks naturalising a historically produced condition. This paper argues that present vulnerabilities are rooted in colonial interventions that disrupted a dynamic, amphibious landscape shaped by seasonal floods, tides and human–nonhuman interdependencies ...

Multiple global‐change drivers and cascading effects in Mediterranean ecosystems: Lessons from an iconic national park

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 6, June 2026.
Mediterranean ecosystems face complex, multi‐trophic impacts from global‐change drivers, yet responses are often studied in isolation. Using the Doñana Protected Area as a case study, we illustrate how anthropogenic pressures on key species like cork oaks and rabbits, as well as increases in species like wild boar and invasive crayfish, lead to ...

Whole Genome Analyses of the Endangered Northern Abalone (Haliotis kamtschatkana) Reveal Population Differentiation and a Genomic Signature of a Dramatic Population Decline

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Despite widespread declines of many wildlife species, the effects of population decline on the genome and the recovery potential of affected species are still poorly understood, especially beyond a few charismatic species. The Northern abalone (or Pinto abalone; Haliotis kamtschatkana) is a marine gastropod mollusk of social, cultural and ...

Farmed Escapees Threaten MHC Diversity in Wild Atlantic Salmon

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Wild Atlantic salmon populations in Norway and elsewhere are experiencing long‐term declines driven by reduced marine survival, climate change, impacts from aquaculture, introduction of alien species, and environmental degradation. Understanding how immune diversity is affected by these declines, and thus the ability of Atlantic salmon to ...

Unlocking the Past to Protect the Future: Forensic DNA and Historical Specimens Reveal the Origins of Smuggled Yellow‐Headed Parrots

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Wildlife trafficking poses a major threat to biodiversity, particularly for species like parrots that are targeted in the pet trade. The Yellow‐headed Parrot (Amazona oratrix), an endangered species native to Mexico and Central America, is frequently poached from unknown geographic locations, hindering the identification of smuggling sources ...

Evaluating and Advancing the Use of Shore‐Based Observers for Scientific Sampling and Catch Verification in High‐Volume Fisheries

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 3, Page 612-629, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Shore‐based observers are increasingly being used in place of at‐sea observers to monitor and sample commercial fisheries catch. However, few evaluations assess whether these programs meet their stated goals or how to optimize them, and industry data are rarely tested for accuracy despite serving as the foundation for catch accounting.
