An Assessment of the Fish Maw Trade in Singapore and Malaysia Reveals Threatened Species and Highlights the Need for a More Complete Assessment of the Conservation Status of the World's Fishes

Conservation Letters, Volume 18, Issue 3, May/June 2025.
ABSTRACT Fish maw, the dried swim bladder of teleost fish, is consumed throughout much of East and Southeast Asia. The serving of maw is seen as an indicator of wealth, prestige, and status in Chinese culture. While Hong Kong and mainland China are considered major fish maw importers, its trade in these countries remains largely understudied. This lack

Comparison of Morphological and DNA‐Based Identification Methods to Assess Earthworm (Clitellata: Lumbricidae) Diversity at 25 Permanent Soil Monitoring Sites in Germany

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 4, April 2025.
The present contribution should contribute to solving the problem of the time‐consuming and expensive identification of soil invertebrates in the standardised survey of soil organisms. Earthworms and soil were sampled at 25 sites; the animals were identified morphologically and by community DNA (comDNA) and environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding, and ...
