From Mud to Meat: Comparative Metabarcoding Reveals Two Different Evolutionary Paths to Carnivory in a Group of Meiofaunal Annelids

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 22, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Evolutionary transitions to carnivory represent profound shifts in feeding mode that are often accompanied by widespread changes in organismal function, behaviour and ecology. Such transitions have evolved numerous times among animals, and predator–prey interactions have been major drivers of animal evolution.

FUGITIVE KINSHIPS: Imperial Legacies, Wayward Acts, and Queer Bonds among Filipino Migrants in Japan

open access: yesCultural Anthropology, Volume 40, Issue 4, Page 647-671, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Like countless other immigrants in the Global North, many Filipinos in Japan have relied on kinship ties to citizens—descent and marriage—to become lawful residents. The hinging of mobility on family ties, however, has yielded a messy by‐product: fugitive kinships—bonds formed outside the narrow juridical definitions of family, typically ...

Eyestalk ligation experiments on the fairy shrimp Streptocephalus dichotomus [PDF]

open access: yes, 1982
The endocrine system of lower crustaceans such as anostracan also shows a similarity with that of decapod crustaceans, especially in the possession of a stalked eye in which is present the X-organ sinus gland complex (Lake, 1969). In the fairy shrimp

Null models for understanding fairy shrimp habitats

open access: yes, 2021
The Chilean fairy shrimp species are represented by the Branchinecta genus, which are poorly described, and mainly occur in shallow ephemeral pools in the Atacama Desert of northern Chile and the Southern Chilean Patagonian plains. The aim of the present

Daphnia metacommunity dynamics : the roles of inbreeding, parasitism, competition, and dispersal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The habitats of many species are not continuous but fragmented, either naturally or increasingly due to human land use. Communities of species inhabiting fragmented habitat patches are connected by dispersal and form a metacommunity, a spatial overlay of

Bridging the Scotia Arc: Climate‐Driven Shifts in Connectivity of the Freshwater Crustacean Branchinecta gaini in Sub‐Antarctic and Antarctic Ecosystems

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 31, Issue 7, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim To integrate the historical and contemporary connectivity of Branchinecta gaini (B. gaini), in order to better predict future distribution changes within its fragmented, dynamic and isolated habitat range. Location The study covers 20 locations of freshwater ecosystems across B.

Mapping the Structure and Evolution of Fish Bio‐ and Ecoacoustics; From Single Species Studies to Biodiversity Monitoring

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, Volume 26, Issue 4, Page 577-586, July 2025.
ABSTRACT This review examines the progression of fish bioacoustics and ecoacoustics, with a focus on the growing application of Passive Acoustic Monitoring (PAM) as a non‐invasive tool for assessing fish biodiversity. As environmental conservation goals intensify globally, particularly with initiatives such as Biodiversity Net Gain, the need for ...
