The impacts of biological invasions

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1255-1310, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Beyond mammals: the evolution of chewing and other forms of oropharyngeal food processing in vertebrates

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1406-1462, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Oropharyngeal food processing exhibits a remarkable diversity among vertebrates, reflecting the evolution of specialised ‘processing centres’ associated with the mandibular, hyoid, and branchial arches. Although studies have detailed various food‐processing strategies and mechanisms across vertebrates, a coherent and comprehensive terminology ...

Freshwater fish and crayfish communities of the Carbunup and Buayanyup Rivers: conservation significance and management considerations

, 2009
This study is the first to examine the fish and freshwater crayfish of the Carbunup and Buayanyup Rivers, south-western Australia. It aimed to determine the distribution of the fishes and freshwater crayfishes, their conservation significance and ...

Status of freshwater crayfish (Astacus leptodactylus) in Iran

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2011
Iranian native crayfish includes one crayfish species, Astacus leptodactylus, with two subspecies, A. l. leptodactylus (lives in freshwater) and A. l. eichwaldi (lives in the Caspian Sea with 12 ppt salinity).

Invasive signal crayfish and native noble crayfish show trophic niche shrinkage in sympatry [PDF]

NeoBiota
Studying the coexistence of native species and invasive species with similar functional traits, habitat usage, and feeding habits is crucial for understanding the dynamics of invasion and ecological changes in the invaded ecosystem.

Geological processes shaping freshwater biodiversity: a synthesis of global evidence

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1568-1581, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Recent genomic data highlight the key roles of geological processes in shaping the diversification and biogeography of freshwater lineages. Specifically, physical processes such as tectonic uplift, erosion, glaciation, lake formation, and sea‐level fluctuation contribute extensively to the evolution of biotic diversity within and among ...

Investigating Sex‐Biased Dispersal in a Vulnerable Marine Invertebrate, the European Spiny Lobster (Palinurus elephas)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
Does dispersal differ between the sexes? Our findings underscore the power of genomic markers to study sex‐biased dispersal, elucidate sex determination systems, and facilitate sex assignment, with important implications for species conservation and management. ABSTRACT Does dispersal differ between the sexes?

A Trial of Natural Habitat Enclosure Traps as a Sampling Tool for Juvenile Crayfish [Elektronisk resurs]

, 2013
Recruitment is a vital factor in the assessment, management and population dynamics of decapods. Since the juvenile stages of crayfish often prefer heterogeneous habitats, sampling with quantitative and reproducible methods have so far been challenging ...
