Testing Pitfall Trap Modifications and Trail Cameras for Monitoring the Endangered Cromwell Chafer Beetle (Prodontria Lewisii Broun)

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 2, June 2026.
Monitoring population trends are essential for the conservation of threatened species, and establishing best‐practice methods improves the efficiency, accuracy and long‐term value of data collected. For the nationally endangered Prodontria lewisii (Cromwell chafer beetle), monitoring has typically included soil core sampling for larvae, and pitfall ...

Taxonomic Species and Conservation: A Coleopterists’ View

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 2, June 2026.
A taxonomic species, the formal name applied to a segment of an evolving lineage, is a scientific representation named by a taxonomist. There is a dearth of taxonomists, which continues to decline, leading to the oft‐mentioned bottleneck in the formal naming of undescribed species and their revision.

Titanium Implant Abutments With Polydopamine‐Mesoporous Cerium Dioxide Coatings for Enhanced Antibacterial, Anti‐Inflammatory, and Soft Tissue Integration Properties

open access: yesRare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The poor soft tissue integration around titanium implants creates a microgap that serves as a pathway for pathogen invasion, resulting in infection, inflammation, and the progression of peri‐implantitis. As the implant’s transmucosal component, the abutment determines the degree of peri‐implant soft tissue attachment.

Development and Assessment of Fluorescent‐Dyed, Preserved Invasive Grass Carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) Eggs as Surrogates for Live Eggs in Transport and Dispersal Control Experiments

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 5, Page 976-988, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Invasive species such as grass carp ( Ctenopharyngodon idella ) pose substantial ecological threats to North American freshwater ecosystems. Understanding their early life stage behavior is critical for management efforts. From spawning to hatching, invasive carp eggs must remain suspended in the water column while drifting downstream for the ...

Ecological Impacts of Chemical Fumigants on Nematode Community Composition

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
Chemical fumigants impact nematode diversity, community composition and nematode‐based indices. ABSTRACT Soil fumigation is widely used to control targeted plant‐parasitic nematodes in agricultural systems, but how they affect nematode communities and nematode‐based indices (NBIs) has remained underexplored.

Scalable Flow Reactors for Stable Biofilm Formation and Continuous Whole‐Cell Catalysis

open access: yesSmall, Volume 22, Issue 31, 2 June 2026.
Flow‐induced deposition enables the controlled formation of stable and long‐lived E. coli biofilms in modular, scalable microfluidic reactors. Hydrodynamic design principles, mechanistic insight into biofilm architecture and long‐term whole‐cell biocatalysis together establish a versatile platform for continuous microbial processing and the engineering
