Knowledge gaps and areas for synthesis in experimental studies of context‐dependent predation risk
Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 9, September 2026.Abstract A growing number of experimental studies address whether the anti‐predator trait responses of prey are associated with costs to prey fitness (non‐consumptive effects) or to the fitness of other species (trait‐mediated indirect effects). Because ecologists remain keen to determine when these risk effects matter, there is a need to know how much

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 3, September 2026.Ecological theory has been shaped disproportionately by studies conducted in young, disturbance‐prone, relatively fertile landscapes (YODFELs), mostly in the Global North. Yet, many megadiverse regions in the Global South are dominated by old, climatically buffered, infertile landscapes (OCBILs), resulting in fundamentally different patterns that ...

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 9, September 2026.Abstract Disulfide‐rich miniproteins constitute compact and highly stable scaffolds of growing interest for molecular and structural engineering. Schistosomins are ~80‐residue proteins conserved across gastropods that form a long‐standing orphan family whose structure and biological roles have remained unknown.

Descriptions of strigea cercariae from the Gauteng and North West Provinces, South Africa
Onderstepoort Journal of Veterinary Research, 2012 Freshwater snails are known to serve as first intermediate hosts for various parasitic diseases such as schistosomosis, amphistomosis and fasciolosis. Two freshwater snail species, Lymnaea natalensis, Krauss 1848 and Bulinus tropicus, Krauss 1848 were ...

Invasive goldfish trigger a regime shift in experimental lake ecosystems of varying trophic state
Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 9, Page 1616-1628, September 2026.The pet trade distributes exotic animals around the globe that enrich human lives. However, some pets become pests when released into the wild. This study provides experimental evidence that goldfish will negatively affect native freshwater organisms and ecosystems.
