Responses of Oligochaeta and Chironomidae to restoration of connectivity in a river–floodplain stretch of the Upper Danube River

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction In the Upper Danube River, a key goal of river–floodplain restoration is to enhance hydrological connectivity and reduce aquatic habitat isolation and terrestrialization. To evaluate restoration effectiveness, it is crucial to understand the functional responses of freshwater biodiversity and the role of connectivity and ...

Meta‐analysis on effects of Bt‐maize on nontarget invertebrates – Data transportability across continents

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 1, Page 365-376, January 2026.
Maize varieties producing insecticidal proteins from Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) have become an important component of integrated pest management worldwide. For regulatory approval of such plants, risks to the environment need to be assessed. To make such assessments less expensive and time‐consuming, conclusions drawn from data collected in one region

Human Impact on Microinvertebrate Diversity and Distributions: Questioning the Resilience of Tardigrades

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 34, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Tardigrades, commonly known as some of the toughest organisms on Earth, like many other microscopic invertebrates, are often overlooked in biodiversity monitoring. Our study aimed to elucidate the impact of environmental disturbance caused by anthropogenic activity on tardigrade diversity and distributions.

Biological surveys reveal unexpectedly high faunal diversity at Nankai Trough methane seeps

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract Cold seeps are chemosynthesis‐based ecosystems powered by microbial primary production that support diverse and specialized faunal assemblages in the deep sea. Despite Nankai Trough in Japan being a geologically active margin hosting numerous seeps, much of the faunal diversity remains undocumented.

Regional Variation in Insularity Effects on Acorn Herbivory in European Oaks Challenges Predictions of Lower Herbivory on Islands

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 11, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Ecological theory predicts lower herbivory on islands. However, most island‐mainland comparisons have focused on vegetative tissues, while reproductive structures remain understudied despite their direct influence on plant fitness and recruitment.

Faunistic Studies in Entomology

open access: yesAnnals of the Entomological Society of America, 1912
I desire to call attention in this note to the desirability of more extensive and especially more distinctly correlated studies upon the insect fauna of the country and especially with reference to the localities represented by the members of this society.
