Forecasting the Risk of Reinvasion by the Giant African Snail in Ogasawara, Japan
Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 3, May 2026.This study used SDMs constructed in multiple regions to predict the suitable habitats of Achatina fulica on Chichijima in the Ogasawara Islands. The model constructed on another island with a wide distribution range showed the highest predictive accuracy.

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 2, April/June 2026.A food‐choice experiment illustrating that monosex decapods can serve as efficient biological control agents against parasite‐transmitting snails in aquaculture systems. We presented prawns and crayfish to four pest snail species with varying shell characteristics and quantified their predation preferences and traits. We show that the force required to

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.Biofloc technology and periphyton‐based systems enhance the sustainable production of giant freshwater prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii). A PRISMA‐guided review (2005 – 2024) shows that BFT improves survival (75 – 78 %) and feed efficiency, while periphyton supports natural productivity in grow‐out.

Zooarchaeological Analysis of an Atoll Assemblage From Central Micronesia
Archaeology in Oceania, Volume 61, Issue 1, Page 177-198, April 2026.ABSTRACT There has been a dearth of archaeological research on atolls in the central‐eastern Caroline Islands of Micronesia. This has limited our understanding of pre‐contact subsistence and settlement strategies in these more marginal and remote environments, particularly in regards to zooarchaeological data.
