Citizen science reveals host‐switching in louse flies and keds (Diptera: Hippoboscidae) during a period of anthropogenic change

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 305-322, June 2026.
A study of louse flies in the United Kingdom, Isle of Man, and Ireland found 212 different interactions between Hippoboscidae and their hosts, of which 70 were previously unrecorded. No louse flies were found on aquatic species of birds. Host‐switching to gulls (Laridae) has occurred during a period in which these species have started relying on ...

A national assessment of waterbird hunting in coastal wetlands of Suriname, South America

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.
We examined waterbird harvest levels in Suriname using hunter survey data from 2006 and 2016. The analysis showed a significant decline in the average harvest per hunter over the decade, except for blue‐winged teal and migratory shorebirds. However, the sustainability of current harvest levels remains uncertain, underscoring the need for a national ...

X‐ray computed tomography study of terrestrial analog cores in preparation for Mars sample return

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 3, Page 405-426, March 2026.
Abstract Mars Sample Return (MSR) is expected to transform planetary science by providing unprecedented access to pristine Martian material. Initial characterization in the sample receiving facility (SRF) will rely on nondestructive techniques such as X‐ray computed tomography (XCT) to document the condition, distribution, and internal features of ...

A theoretical model of flock formation to understand trade‐offs between cooperation and competition

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Migratory birds often form flocks during spring migration and compete for territories once they arrive at breeding sites. Understanding the emergence and structure of these flocks has important implications for avian ecology and conservation, as flocking can influence migration success, resource distribution, and population resilience. In this
