Repeated Observations Suggesting Kleptoparasitism by a Common Bottlenose Dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) on the Great Barrier Reef

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
This study documents the first detailed case of kleptoparasitism in cetaceans, with observations of a Common Bottlenose Dolphin repeatedly pursuing Bigeye Trevally to induce the fish to regurgitate their prey, which is then consumed by the dolphin.

Estimates of Critical Upper Maxima (CTmax) of Kelp Species Are Strongly Influenced by Biogeography and Thermal History

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
Experimentally derived critical thermal maxima (CTmax) are widely used to estimate species' thermal tolerance and increasingly to predict vulnerability to chronic warming. However, evidence shows how CTmax is dynamic and can be strongly influenced by multiple environmental and methodological factors, potentially limiting its application as a fixed ...

Insights Into the Structural Features, Codon Usage Patterns, and Phylogenetic Analysis in Neoniphon argenteus (Teleostei: Holocentriformes) Based on Complete Mitochondrial Genome

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
This study provides important foundational information for further research on the mitochondrial genomes of Holocentridae. ABSTRACT Neoniphon argenteus, a widely distributed nocturnal coral reef fish in the family Holocentridae, plays an important role in maintaining coral reef ecosystem health, yet its phylogenetic position remains poorly resolved.

Reference‐Guided Chromosome‐Scale Genome Assembly With Insights on Population Genomics of the Atlantic Goliath Grouper (Epinephelus itajara), Islas del Rosario, Colombia

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
We present a high‐quality chromosome‐level genome assembly and population genomic analysis of the critically endangered Goliath grouper (Epinephelus itajara) using PacBio HiFi and Illumina sequencing technologies. The 1.12 Gb genome assembly showed high contiguity and identified 22,692 protein‐coding genes, while comparative analyses revealed conserved

Community‐level egg and larval trait interactions with the Amazon River plume determine its role as a dispersal barrier

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2026, Issue 9, September 2026.
The Amazon River plume (ARP) functions as a dynamic and porous biogeographic barrier whose permeability to larval dispersal depends on the interplay between species' biological traits and oceanographic processes. Using biophysical modeling combined with a dual analytical framework, namely a multivariate regression tree (MRT) and a generalized additive ...

Oyster reef habitat characteristics and nekton communities vary with restoration method in a large‐scale project

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Restoration in coastal ecosystems is revitalizing populations of foundation species that provide valuable habitat to support biodiversity and ecosystem services. The goals of oyster reef restoration include increasing oyster populations and oyster reef ecosystem services such as provision of habitat for commercially and ecologically valuable ...
