Goby gummies: A customizable and edible assay to quantify predation in aquatic ecosystems

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Predation is a critical ecosystem process that shapes the structure and functioning of biological communities. However, due to its intermittent nature, fast pace and general unpredictability, predation is difficult to observe and quantify. Therefore, we commonly rely on indirect metrics or proxies of predation, which reflect the outcome of ...

Phylogenetically‐Informed Crayfish Conservation in the Face of Climate Change

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
Crayfish are a vital part of freshwater ecosystems, yet one third of assessed species are threatened with extinction, and almost 90% are highly sensitive to climate change. In this study, we produced a phylogenetically‐informed species prioritisation for crayfish conservation and explored the impacts of projected climate change scenarios on crayfish ...

Frequency and Severity of Allergic Reactions to Non‐Mandatory Labelled Allergenic Foods—Data From Two Large European Cohorts

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
In two large European cohorts, 589 reactions to non‐mandatory labelled plant‐based foods were identified with sunflower seed, pine nut, pea and lentil as the most frequent triggers. Reaction severity was not different between mandatory and non‐mandatory labelled allergenic foods. Their frequency and rising trends (e.g., fenugreek, pumpkin seed) support

First Zoeal Stage of the Snapping Shrimp Alpheus Fabricius, 1798 (Caridea: Alpheidae): New Description of Alpheus bouvieri A. Milne‐Edwards, 1878 and Literature Review

open access: yesActa Zoologica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Based on adult morphological characters, the more than 300 species of Alpheus were divided into seven informal species groups, but some groups are not supported by molecular data. The aim here was to describe the zoea I of Alpheus bouvieri, and to do a review of the larval descriptions available in the literature, analysing whether the ...

Crushing and Cutting: Shape Variation and Morphological Integration Between the Claws of Two Swimming Crab Species (Brachyura: Portunidae)

open access: yesActa Zoologica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigated shape variations and morphological integration between the components of crusher and cutter claws in two species of swimming crabs, Callinectes danae and Callinectes ornatus. The propodi and dactyli of the claws were analysed in males and females of both species, using geometric morphometric techniques to identify ...
