Physiology and Survival of Intertidal Calcifiers in Two Contrasting Upwelling Systems

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
This study evaluates the physiological responses and survival of two intertidal mollusk species, Chiton granosus and Scurria zebrina, across contrasting upwelling environments. We found that metabolic rates and survival differ between populations exposed to seasonal versus semi‐permanent upwelling.

The Vulnerability of New Zealand Forage Plants to Incursions by New Pests, Pathogens and Weeds, and the Case for Greater Protection

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 1, February 2026.
We outline the diversity of pests, weeds and plant pathogens absent from New Zealand that threaten forage production, examine their potential import pathways, and outline the challenges of managing them should they arrive. The number and diversity of threats and pathways indicates ongoing incursions are inevitable.

Invertebrate Biodiversity Associated With a Unique Bryozoan Biogenic Reef Complex (Western Port, Victoria, Australia)

Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT A unique biogenic bryozoan reef has been recently discovered in Western Port (a temperate embayment), Victoria, Australia. This reef is significant owing to its contiguous, regular, linear rows of densely stacked bryozoan colonies with large vertical relief. We aimed to (1) document the biodiversity of the macroinvertebrate epifauna associated

Cryptofauna Associated With the Epilithic Algal Matrix on Subtropical Brazilian Reefs

Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The epilithic algal matrix (EAM) plays a significant role in the benthic cover of reefs worldwide. In Brazil, the EAM accounts for a substantial proportion of the benthos, and its associated fauna contributes to the majority of the reef's metazoan biodiversity and is an important link into the trophic chain, connecting the production performed

Limited Dispersal Drives Strong Genetic Structure in the Commercially Harvested Gastropod Buccinum undatum in the Western North Atlantic

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Direct‐developing species lack the pelagic larval phase which facilitates connectivity in most marine species. Consequently, they tend to exhibit spatially restricted dispersal and increased population structure. When subject to harvesting, this biological constraint increases their vulnerability to localized depletion, as local aggregations ...
