Larval Feeding Habits of Five Firefly Species Across Aquatic, Semi-Aquatic, and Terrestrial Lineages

Insects
While adult fireflies are terrestrial, their larvae inhabit various habitat types, and a lack of comprehensive research on the feeding habits of these larvae across different habitats has greatly impeded the development of artificial diets.

Evaluating Spatial Compliance of Protected Areas by Recreational Fishers and Resulting Ecological Responses of Temperate Rocky Reefs

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Protected areas (PA) are widely used to mitigate overfishing, but their conservation value depends on their size, age, take/no‐take regulations, compliance and enforcement. We evaluated fisher compliance of PAs within Barkley Sound, Canada, using recreational fishing effort location data from aerial surveys (2021–2023).

Ontogenetic Trophic Differentiation in the Amur Softshell Turtle (Pelodiscus maackii) From a Temperate Large‐River System

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
We investigated ontogenetic variation in diet composition of the Amur softshell turtle (Pelodiscus maackii) from a temperate large‐river system using stomach content analyses of field‐collected individuals. Dietary composition differed markedly across body‐size classes, indicating pronounced ontogenetic trophic differentiation and shifts in resource ...

Genetic Structure and Signs of Local Adaptation in Icelandic Brown Trout Populations

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
We present here an assessment of the genetic structure of Icelandic brown trout across 40 locations, revealing 16 distinct genetic clusters shaped by postglacial isolation and local adaptation. Our research highlights that landlocked headwater populations exhibit significantly reduced genetic diversity compared to anadromous groups and identifies ...

Pesticide‐Free Rice Paddies Promote Diverse and Distinct Aquatic Invertebrate Communities in Cool‐Temperate Agroecosystems

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
Freshwater wetlands are disappearing across agricultural landscapes, prompting interest in pesticide‐free rice paddies as multifunctional habitats. Across 2 years, rice paddies supported higher local macroinvertebrate density and richness than nearby natural wetlands, although wetlands maintained greater regional diversity and more heterogeneous ...

Phenotypic Integration Facilitates Plasticity Through Reorganization of Traits Under Multiple Stress: Evidence From Asexual Water Flea Genotypes

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
This study demonstrates that phenotypic integration, the coordinated covariation among traits, is itself a plastic and context‐dependent property in clonal Daphnia. Contrary to the classic constraint model, we found that stronger integration can facilitate greater plasticity, particularly under low‐food conditions, with differential plasticity between ...

Anthropogenic Disturbance Shapes Native–Alien Community Patterns Across Urban–Rural Gradients in a Neglected Invertebrate Model System

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
Urbanisation and habitat disturbance are well‐known to promote the spread of opportunistic and alien species, but their effect on alien land snails has seldom been investigated. This research aimed to test whether alien snails presence and abundance can be influenced by proximity to roads, water sources and human structures, as well as the site size ...

Artificial light at night and an invasive snail synergistically enhance the invasion of a nonnative macrophyte

Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Herbivory shapes plant invasion outcomes, yet its role in aquatic plant invasions under artificial light at night (ALAN) remains poorly understood. We conducted three experiments using an invasive macrophyte Myriophyllum aquaticum, a native macrophyte community comprising Vallisneria natans, Hydrilla verticillata, Myriophyllum spicatum, as ...
