Mapping molluscan endocrinology: a systematic and critical appraisal

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 2, Page 970-1002, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Historically, a vertebrate‐centric paradigm has framed our interpretation of molluscan endocrinology, with considerable research focusing on vertebrate‐type steroid hormones (e.g. oestrogens, testosterone). However, contradictory evidence on the occurrence of vertebrate‐type steroid hormones in molluscan tissues, and a lack of the specific ...

Seasonal Metacommunity Processes of Benthic Invertebrates in the Vjosa/Aoos River

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
The Vjosa River network harbors Europe's last free flowing metacommunity. Here, environmental and spatial constraints together with biotic interactions shape a dynamically changing metacommunity, but the importance of these ecological drivers changes over time and across space. We argue that understanding the complex and dynamic metacommunity processes

Snail intermediate host occurrence recorded by citizen scientists in rural Uganda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo

GigaByte
Snail-borne parasitic diseases, such as schistosomiasis and fascioliasis, pose significant public health and economic challenges worldwide. Schistosomiasis affects over 250 million people globally, with most cases in sub-Saharan Africa, while ...

Genomics of Caddisfly (Insecta: Trichoptera) Species Associated With Terrestrial Habitats

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
Species of Limnephilidae (tube case making caddisflies (Trichoptera)) occur across a wide range of habitats, from cold headwater streams to stagnant pools to even terrestrial environments. We present high‐quality genome assemblies and annotations from two species that are associated with terrestrial environments: Enoicyla pusilla (Burmeister, 1839) and

Environmental and geomorphological drivers of frog diversity on islands worldwide

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 4, April 2026.
Island biogeography models primarily rely on island physical features and isolation to explain their biodiversity patterns. While newer models have incorporated functional traits to understand plant distribution, few empirical studies have tried to disentangle geometric constraints from niche‐based processes to predict multiple diversity facets of ...

Prioritising research on endocrine disruption in the marine environment: a global perspective

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 2, Page 848-868, April 2026.
ABSTRACT A healthy ocean is a crucial life support system that regulates the global climate, is a source of oxygen and supports major economic activities. A vast and understudied biodiversity from micro‐ to macro‐organisms is integral to ocean health.

Molecular Diversity of the Genus Plagiorchis Lühe, 1899 in Snail Hosts of Central Europe with Evidence of New Lineages

Diversity
Cercariae of Plagiorchis spp. are frequently reported in European freshwater snails, but their true diversity is difficult to estimate due to subtle differences in morphology.

The threat of native molluscs by the New Zealand mud – snail (Potamopyrgus antipodarum (gray) = Угроза для местных моллюсков со стороны новозеландского слизня [PDF]

, 2002
Potamopyrgus antipodarum has been introduced to brackish and fresh waters of Europe probably in the first half of XIXth century, when the regular clipper lines have connected from 1840 the British Isles with New Zealand.
