Are freshwater turtles macro-epibionts indicators of water quality of the streams where the turtles live? [PDF]

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências
Organisms that live above others can give information not only about the relation between them but also about the environment they inhabit. In that sense, this work studies the relationship between epibionts living on freshwater turtles and the impact ...

Non‐Fungi Diversity Present in Soil and Snow Impacted by Anthropogenic Activity in King George Island, Maritime Antarctica Using Metabarcoding Approach

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 73, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
ABSTRACT The Antarctic Peninsula shows a fast‐rising temperature trend, increasing the risk of colonization by non‐native species, such as the invasive Poa annua. The “cryptic diversity” of largely unknown microscopic propagules in soil and snow poses a significant threat, as traditional morphological surveys are inadequate.

Using Photographs in Fishers’ Ecological Knowledge Research: A Review and Field Study on Small‐Scale Fishers’ Knowledge of Coastal Habitats in the Central Mediterranean Sea

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Fishers interact daily with coastal environments, which generate a deep understanding of habitat characteristics, species associations and ecological change. Fishers’ ecological knowledge (FEK) is therefore a critical source of insight for marine science, offering observations that uniquely complement scientific data and, when incorporated ...

Nutrient enrichment stimulates herbivory and alters epibiont assemblages at the edge but not inside subtidal macroalgal forests [PDF]

, 2020
Nutrient enrichment is a major threat to subtidal macroalgal forests. Several studies have shown that nutrient inputs can enhance the ability of opportunistic algal species to acquire space freed by disturbance, at the expense of architecturally complex ...

Occurrence of phoresy between Ancistrus multispinis (Actinopterygii: Siluriformes) and Ichthyocladius sp. (Diptera: Chironomidae) in Atlantic forest streams, Southeastern Brazil

Zoologia (Curitiba), 2018
Phoretic relationships often bring large advantages to epibionts. By attaching themselves to mobile hosts, epibionts are able to: expand their ranges without spending energy, reduce their risk of being predated, and increase their probability of finding ...

Temporal Shifts in Subtidal Rocky Benthic Communities Associated With the Invasion of Rugulopteryx okamurae in a Port Environment

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The invasive brown alga Rugulopteryx okamurae, native to the northwestern Pacific, has rapidly expanded along the European Atlantic coast, reaching the Basque Coast in 2023, and was likely already present in 2022. Using annual data from a monitoring survey conducted between 2010 and 2025, this study assesses the spatio‐temporal variability of ...

Environmental and local habitat variables as predictors of trophic interactions in subtidal rocky reefs along the SE Pacific coast

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 8, August 2026.
Temperature generally drives latitudinal patterns in the strength of trophic interactions, including consumption rates. However, local community and other environmental conditions might also affect consumption, disrupting latitudinal gradients, which results in complex large‐scale patterns.
