The Case of the Missing Green Iguana Predators: Reviews of Ecological Literature Should Go Beyond Google Scholar

open access: yesThe Bulletin of the Ecological Society of America, Volume 107, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Knowing about species interactions is essential for ecological research, conservation efforts, resource management, and maintaining healthy ecosystems, but many of these, such as reports of predation, may not always be published in easily located resources—if they are published at all.

Chrysoperla externa (Neuroptera: Chrysopidae) as a Potential Biological Control Agent of Raoiella indica (Acari: Tenuipalpidae)

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 4, Page 335-342, April 2026.
First and third instar Chrysoperla externa showed efficient predatory capacity at low R. indica density, but second instar C. externa exhibits a density‐dependent predatory ability. The lacewing C. externa shows promise as a biocontrol agent for R. indica in coconut because it consumed 8362 R. indica females across all its larval instars.

A Scoping Review of Human–Jaguar (Panthera onca) Conflict in Latin America 拉丁美洲人与美洲豹 (Panthera onca) 冲突的范围综述 Revisión de Alcance del Conflicto Humano‐Jaguar (Panthera onca) en América Latina

open access: yesIntegrative Conservation, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 16-32, March 2026.
A review of 192 articles published between 1985 and 2023 revealed that human–jaguar conflict literature has focused on the human dimensions of conflict, jaguar killings, attacks on domestic animals and humans, and management. Several research gaps remain including: policy enforcement, interdisciplinary research, relevant geographic locations and ...

Predation on Northern Silky Anteater (Cyclopes dorsalis) by Tiger Rat Snake (Spilotes pullatus) in a Rainforest Fragment in Costa Rica

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 58, Issue 2, March 2026.
We report the first predation event of a northern silky anteater by a tiger rat snake. This predation underscores how little is known about the nocturnal anteater and its predators. As the snake is commensal with humans, anthropogenic habitat alterations might have exposed the anteater to a novel predation pressure.

Trait‐mediated effects driven by an invasive herbivore alter functionally diverse plant–frugivore interactions

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 1, Page 216-228, January 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Fruit traits play a fundamental role in mediating plant‐frugivore interactions, shaping seed dispersal dynamics. Given the complexity of multi‐species interactions, these traits and, consequently, plant‐frugivore interactions can be indirectly influenced by third‐party ...

It is cool to be clear: Transparency induces a thermal cost in clearwing butterflies

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 9, Page 2452-2464, September 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract In butterflies, wing transparency raises the question of potential costs for vital functions, such as thermoregulation. The thermal melanism hypothesis posits that darker colorations enable higher absorption of solar radiation, leading to the prediction that such ...
