Cumulative Early‐Life Adversities Predict Short‐ and Long‐Term Survival in a Critically Endangered Lemur (Propithecus verreauxi)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Infant survival of wild Verreaux's sifakas was impacted by different cumulative indices of early adversities. Of the single factors, maternal loss, large group size and the absence of an older sibling decreased the odds of survival across the lifespan. Adversities early in life have persistent negative long‐term effects on survival.

Species Extirpation and Colonization Reveal Mixed Homogenization and Differentiation Across Terrestrial Taxa After One of the World's Largest Tailings Dam Failures

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Fundão tailings‐dam failure (2015)—study area and impact gradient. Regional maps locate the Rio Doce Basin in southeastern Brazil and the Fundão dam (red cross), with the black rectangle marking the extent of the main map. The main map follows the downstream tailings pathway along the river corridor (plume highlight).

Evidence of a Potential Nursery Area for the Great Hammerhead Shark, Sphyrna mokarran, in the Largest Coral Reef System of the Southwestern Atlantic

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
We present evidence suggesting that the Abrolhos Bank functions as key habitat for early life stages of Sphyrna mokarran. Kernel density estimation revealed spatially structured aggregations, with neonates and young‐of‐the‐year concentrated in shallow reef‐associated areas. Temporal variation in catch per unit effort (CPUE) indicated recruitment pulses

In A Class of Their Own: Multiclass Random Forests Reveal Distinct Habitat Needs of Fledglings Relative to Adults in Two Grassland Birds

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Adults and juveniles across taxa often have unique habitat needs as a result of differing selective pressures during these periods, and such differences may inform the conservation and management of species. Here, we apply a novel multiclass analytic approach to compare the habitat use of nesting adults and fledglings in two declining grassland bird ...

Climate and Edaphic Factors Partly Explain Leaf Litterfall Rates of Species From Tropical Semi‐Deciduous Ecosystems

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Semi‐deciduous ecosystems have short leaf‐shedding periods, making carbon cycling and litterfall patterns difficult to study. This study compiled data from 31 global sites and used regression models to examine how climate and soil factors influence leaf litterfall rates.
