Retracing the Response of Rangifer to Postglacial Climate Change in Arctic Islands

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
Our study examines the role of sea ice and glacial retreat in shaping the biogeography of Rangifer tarandus across Arctic islands since the last glacial period. Using mitochondrial DNA analysis and approximate Bayesian computation (ABC) modelling, we found that Arctic island dispersal occurred during the Holocene, with sea ice cover likely influencing ...

A Dangerous Prey Fish? Brachyspira‐Rich Gastrointestinal Microbiota in Pompano Dolphinfish From Neritic and Deep Waters of the South China Sea

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
This study reveals an unexpectedly simplified, Brachyspira‐dominated gastrointestinal microbiota in pompano dolphinfish from both neritic and deep‐sea habitats of the South China Sea. Environmental DNA and functional analyses suggest these fish may acquire potential pathogens in anthropogenically influenced coastal waters and transport them offshore ...

Post‐Release Survival and Behavioral Recovery of a Rehabilitated Short‐Finned Pilot Whale (Globicephala macrorhynchus) in the South China Sea Revealed Through Satellite Tracking

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
This study presents the first empirical evidence of successful rehabilitation and post‐release monitoring of a short‐finned pilot whale in the South China Sea—a region where such data are critically lacking despite frequent stranding events. Using satellite telemetry and a dedicated resighting expedition, we documented the 52‐day movement, diving ...

Beach Buffet: First Observations of White‐Backed Vultures Gyps africanus Feeding on a Cape Fur Seal Arctocephalus pusillus on the Skeleton Coast

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
Vultures are specialized scavengers that provide critical ecosystem services by clearing carcasses, though their activity in African coastal environments has previously been limited to only two documented species (i.e., the Lappet‐faced and the Hooded Vultures).

A Multi‐Taxa Approach to Estuarine Biomonitoring: Assessing Vertebrate Biodiversity and Ecological Continuity Using Environmental DNA Metabarcoding in the Rance River (Brittany, France)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
We applied eDNA metabarcoding to assess vertebrate diversity in the Rance Estuary, France, across five stations spanning marine to freshwater environments, including areas upstream and downstream of a tidal power plant dam. A total of 124 vertebrate MOTUs were detected, with community composition reflecting the estuarine gradient and species turnover ...
