Biogeography of Parasitic Nematode Communities in the Galápagos Giant Tortoise: Implications for Conservation Management.

PLoS ONE, 2015
The Galápagos giant tortoise is an icon of the unique, endemic biodiversity of Galápagos, but little is known of its parasitic fauna. We assessed the diversity of parasitic nematode communities and their spatial distributions within four wild tortoise ...

Flight of the dragons: a global review of migration in Odonata

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 2134-2157, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Insects are the most abundant and ecologically important animal migrants. Yet, we know relatively little about the patterns and processes underlying insect migration. Dragonflies (Anisoptera) and damselflies (Zygoptera) comprise the ancient insect order Odonata, whose ancestors were the first organisms to fly on Earth.

Counting cases, conserving species: addressing highly pathogenic avian influenza in wildlife

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 2190-2213, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) has become a critical threat to wildlife, shifting from a seasonal epizootic to a persistent, year‐round panzootic with global consequences. Here, we summarise the origin, evolutionary mechanisms, and expanding host range of the current H5N1 virus (clade 2.3.4.4b) and assess its impact on wildlife. Over

Prevention of Venous Thromboembolism in Patients With Pancreatic Cancer: A Nationwide Survey

Cancer Medicine, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Pancreatic cancer is associated with a high risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE), with approximately one in five patients developing VTE. Randomized controlled trials have demonstrated that primary thromboprophylaxis is effective and safe in ambulatory patients with pancreatic cancer treated with chemotherapy.

Long‐Term Ocular Outcomes of Dupilumab in Atopic Dermatitis: Results From the BioDay Registry

Clinical and Translational Allergy, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Dupilumab‐associated ocular surface disease (DAOSD) is the most reported side effect in dupilumab‐treated atopic dermatitis (AD) patients. We investigated the effect of long‐term dupilumab treatment on ocular surface disease (OSD), conjunctival goblet cells (GCs), and tear fluid dupilumab levels and proteins.

Preliminary insights of the genetic diversity and invasion pathways of Cedrela odorata in the Galapagos Islands, Ecuador

Ecology and Evolution
Cedrela odorata is considered the second most invasive tree species of the Galapagos Islands. Although it is listed in CITES Appendix II and there are population losses in mainland Ecuador, in Galapagos it is paradoxically a species of concern due to its

Migration and the Environment in the Galapagos: An analysis of economic and policy incentives driving migration, potential impacts from migration control, and potential policies to reduce migration pressure [PDF]

From 1974 through 1997 the Galapagos experienced very rapid population growth, around six per cent per year. Sustained at this level, the population would continue to double every 12 years.

Surface and Tropospheric Climatic Trends in the Galápagos Archipelago Based on the Galápagos Archipelago Refined Analysis Dataset

International Journal of Climatology, Volume 46, Issue 12, October 2026.
The Galápagos Archipelago's near‐surface climate is primarily influenced by interannual El Niño‐Southern Oscillation variability, with no statistical evidence for long‐term trends in air temperature, humidity, or precipitation. While tropospheric warming and increased atmospheric stability are observed, these trends are largely decoupled from near ...
