Brazil's Invisible Invaders: Are Craspedacusta Jellyfish a Ticking Ecological Bomb?

Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The invasive freshwater jellyfish Craspedacusta sowerbii, likely of Asian origin, is globally distributed, yet its invasion history in South America remains poorly understood. Following a mass mortality event of tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) during a jellyfish bloom in Paraná, Brazil, in March 2022, we conducted morphological and molecular ...

Richness and composition of gall-inducing arthropods at Coiba National Park, Panama

Revista de Biología Tropical, 2007
Interest in studying galls and their arthropods inducers has been growing rapidly in the last two decades. However, the Neotropical region is probably the least studied region for gall-inducing arthropods. A study of the richness and composition of gall-inducing arthropods was carried out at Coiba National Park in the Republic of Panama.

Revisiting the taxonomy and nomenclature of Phyla, a small genus of Verbenaceae

Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2025, Issue 12, December 2025.
Phyla is unique within Verbenaceae due to the presence of malpighiaceous hairs. Its taxonomy has long been marked by difficulties in defining species boundaries. The most recent revision of the genus recognized five species and three varieties. In this study, however, we recognize only two species and no varieties: P.

Evolving Strain Partitioning Driven by Multiple Plate Interaction—Paleotectonic Reconstruction of Northwestern South America During the Cenozoic

Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract In Northwestern South America (NWSA) geodetic observations point to a consistent northeastward displacement of blocks, while the geological record shows a predominant shortening in NW‐SE direction. Such clear evidence of strain partitioning has been extensively studied in the context of two convergent plates, but not in complex tectonic area ...

Larval Adaptation to Salinity Shock in Cane Toads (Rhinella marina) From Coastal French Guiana

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
Many habitats not only differ in mean conditions but also in the degree to which these conditions fluctuate through time. Here, we show that native range cane toad tadpoles are adapted to local fluctuations in salinity, rather than to average salinity.

Modelling Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis Presence and Intensity Using High Spatial and Temporal Resolution Weather Data

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 31, Issue 7, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Species distribution models (SDMs) are an important tool for conservation efforts, and when constructed using high‐quality predictor and response data could be useful for identifying portions of a species' range that could serve as refugia from risks that are influenced by environmental conditions, such as pathogens.
