Contrasting Climate‐Associated Shifts in Male and Female Body Size Reduce Sexual Size Dimorphism in the Sagebrush Lizard (Sceloporus graciosus)

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 3, September 2026.
Body size changed differently between male and female sagebrush lizards over time, with females increasing more than males. Lizards also showed greater increases in body size in populations that experienced warmer and wetter climatic shifts. ABSTRACT Changes in body size are among the most frequently documented biological responses to recent climate ...

Diversidad y distribución de acridios (Orthoptera: Acridoidea) en pastizales del sur de la región pampeana, Argentina Diversity and distribution of grasshoppers (Orthoptera: Acridoidea) in grasslands of the Southern Pampas region, Argentina

open access: yesRevista de Biología Tropical, 2013
Los acridios son componentes nativos de los pastizales, dichos sistemas han sido modificados debido a la intensificación de las actividades agrícola-ganaderas y por lo tanto se considera importante estudiar las comunidades de acridios asociadas.

Climate Change and Herbivores: Forty Years in a Bunchgrass Prairie

open access: yesAnimals
Wild herbivore responses to anthropogenic climate change are often projected to be habitat and geographic range shifts as warmer conditions reduce the quantity and nutritional quality of forage plants, which makes species presence/absence a focus.

Effects of off‐highway vehicle activity on Arizona wildlife: a systematic literature review

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 7, September 2026.
The published literature indicates that off‐highway vehicles (OHVs) predominantly negatively affect native Arizona amphibians, mammals, and reptiles, while effects of OHVs on native Arizona birds are mostly unknown or neutral. Abstract Off‐highway vehicle (OHV) recreation has dramatically increased in Arizona, USA, prompting concerns about potential ...

The value of regeneration

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 9, Page 3003-3014, September 2026.
Abstract Millions of hectares of rangelands have been subject to degeneration through overgrazing, agricultural expansion, urbanisation and afforestation. Countering this, regeneration is a natural process whereby rangeland ecosystems revive themselves.

LaZeTrack: An open‐source object detection algorithm to detect and track 2‐day‐old zebrafish motor touch responses

open access: yesQuantitative Biology, Volume 14, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Zebrafish are a model organism used for the study of vertebrate development, disease, and drug discovery. Two‐day old zebrafish exhibit burst swimming behavior that can be elicited by a light touch to the tail. Motor touch responses are frequently video‐recorded and later analyzed by hand.

Edible Insect Allergens: An Emerging Food Safety Challenge

open access: yesSustainable Food Proteins, Volume 4, Issue 3, September 2026.
Allergic responses to edible insects arise via two main pathways: cross‐reactivity with homologous arthropod allergens and primary sensitization to edible insect proteins, both leading to IgE‐mediated immune activation. ABSTRACT Edible insects are increasingly promoted as sustainable protein sources; however, their allergenic potential remains a ...
