New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 2, June 2026.Monitoring population trends are essential for the conservation of threatened species, and establishing best‐practice methods improves the efficiency, accuracy and long‐term value of data collected. For the nationally endangered Prodontria lewisii (Cromwell chafer beetle), monitoring has typically included soil core sampling for larvae, and pitfall ...

The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 5, Page 1422-1432, May 2026.Abstract Bats possess the remarkable ability to fly, and with this, distinctive wing bone properties. We investigated the structural, mechanical, and compositional properties of the humerus, radius, metacarpals, and proximal and middle phalanges of Carollia perspicillata, an approximately 15 g fruit‐eating bat native to the Neotropics.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.Food puzzles significantly increased food engagement time in captive golden‐headed lion tamarins (Leontopithecus chrysomelas), with individuals spending three times longer foraging compared to standard food bowls. Grooming and activity levels showed no short‐term changes, though patterns varied across enclosures. These findings highlight puzzle feeders

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.Across four years of surveys in an arid Great Basin ecosystem, community flowering phenology showed strong seasonal, interannual, and trait‐based variation, with most differences occurring in spring and little variation in fall. Flowering patterns broadly corresponded with interannual climate variability, consistent with the importance of moisture ...

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 4, Page 854-870, April 2026.Abstract Ecosystem services are rapidly degrading under anthropogenic pressure. Therefore, it is increasingly important to understand how ecosystem services flow, particularly at local scales, where people directly rely on nature for their livelihoods and well‐being. Many ecosystem services are underpinned by ecological (e.g.
