The Growing Pain of Animal Welfare Weaponization: Get the Ghost Out of the Machine

Zoo Biology, Volume 45, Issue 1, Page 5-15, January/February 2026.
ABSTRACT Managing for positive animal welfare is recognized as a fundamental zoo and aquarium practice. Indeed, many zoo and aquarium associations now have expectations that their members demonstrate achievement of some level of positive welfare for their charges.

Evolutionary constraints in host shifts: Limited adaptation of Plutella xylostella to cardenolide‐defended Erysimum cheiranthoides

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 501-516, February 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Coevolutionary arms races between plants and insects, in which gains of novel plant defences select for counteradaptations in herbivores, are key drivers of biodiversity.

Identifying Key Biodiversity Areas Based on Distinct Genetic Diversity

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) are sites that contribute significantly to the global persistence of biodiversity. Distinct genetic diversity has been introduced as one of the metrics to estimate whether a site holds a threshold proportion of a species' global genetic diversity during the KBA identification process.

Highly localised morphological diversity in the mayfly Cloeon tasmaniae Tillyard (Ephemeroptera; Baetidae), and a new synonomy with C. paradieniense Suter

Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Ambiguity over the features that differentiate two nominal species of baetid mayflies, Cloeon paradieniense Suter and C. tasmaniae Tillyard, in southeast Australia led to a detailed analysis of the morphology and meristics of specimens from Victoria, South Australia and, in particular, Tasmania, where both species have been reported.

Oviposition and larval establishment of three ‘generalist’ noctuids on Capsicum annuum

Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Understanding the oviposition and foraging behaviour of pestiferous lepidopterans on their economically important food plants guides the development of effective pest management tactics. Here, we examined the oviposition behaviour and larval establishment of three noctuid species on a single crop—capsicum (Capsicum annuum).
