Sample purification and characterization of the α‐ and β‐crustacyanin pigments from the American lobster for crystallographic and cryo‐EM studies

Acta Crystallographica Section F, Volume 82, Issue 2, Page 49-56, February 2026.
The striking blue colour of the American lobster is caused by proteins that interact with the red pigment astaxanthin, causing its colour change. We have purified and characterized the pigments from the American lobster for crystallographic and cryo‐EM studies.The striking blue hue of live Homarus americanus, known as the American lobster, arises from ...

Interspecific variation in leaf phenology and its relationship with plant traits in a seasonal tropical forest

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 433-450, February 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Leaf phenology plays an important role in plant life‐history strategies and in determining ecosystem‐level fluxes of carbon and water. In seasonal tropical forests, leaf phenology is highly variable among tree species, but limited quantitative data have hindered our ...

New records and new species of Miracinae (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) from Australia and Papua New Guinea, with a key to world Mirax species

Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract The genera of Miracinae, currently in something of a state of flux, are discussed with respect to their morphological and molecular attributes. Centistidea Rohwer, 1914 is treated provisionally as a valid genus, distinct from Mirax Haliday, 1833, based partly on propodeal morphology, though this is acknowledged to be an unstable character ...

Improved taxonomic and gene sampling advance the knowledge of deep relationships within Macrodasyida (Gastrotricha)

Cladistics, Volume 42, Issue 1, Page 25-45, February 2026.
Abstract Advances in Macrodasyida (Gastrotricha) phylogenetics, fuelled by new species discoveries and molecular data, are reshaping taxonomic classifications. Molecular analyses suggest polyphyly in Cephalodasyidae and Macrodasyidae, yet insufficient sampling continues to obscure precise relationships.

A Novel Crustavirus as a Candidate Aetiology of Tail Fan Necrosis in New Zealand Red Rock Lobsters, Jasus edwardsii

Journal of Fish Diseases, Volume 49, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Tail fan necrosis (TFN) is a shell disease affecting spiny lobsters' outer integument, with significant implications for the health and commercial viability of red rock lobsters (Jasus edwardsii) in New Zealand. Despite its impact, the potential role of a microbial agent in TFN remains poorly understood.

Incidental Detection of Microfilariae in Saguinus bicolor and Saguinus midas From Central Amazon

Journal of Medical Primatology, Volume 55, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Callitrichid primates Saguinus bicolor and Saguinus midas from urban accidents in peri‐urban forests from Central Amazon were necropsied. Analysis of thoracic and peritoneal fluid showed that 56.5% (13/23) of S. bicolor individuals and 13.3% (4/30) of S.
