Species Determination Within the Felidae Family Using mtDNA Minibarcoding

open access: yesAnimal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Wildlife forensic analysis frequently deals with highly degraded DNA samples, including those from tanned hides, processed products of traditional Chinese medicine, and specimens stored in preservation fluids. These samples present significant challenges for traditional DNA barcoding due to the difficulty of amplifying sufficiently long DNA ...

Mito‐Nuclear Discordance and Species Boundaries in the Freshwater Fish Genus Cyprinion Revealed by Genome‐Wide SNPs

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
The cyprinid genus Cyprinion exhibits complex and contentious species boundaries across western Asia due to extensive morphological overlap and shallow mitochondrial divergence. Using integrated COI and genome‐wide SNP analyses, we identified distinct genomic clusters among several taxa despite shared mitochondrial haplotypes, revealing signatures of ...

Simulated Range Expansion Suggests Rapid Change in Biotic Resistance to a Range‐Shifting Competitor

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
We constructed populations of Lemna minor genotypes sourced from localities near and beyond the range edge of a potential range‐shifting competitor, Spirodela polyrhiza. Following 14 weeks of exposure to low densities of S. polyrhiza, we observed subtle but significant rapid evolution and phenotypic plasticity of functional traits in L.

Shared foraging behaviors between hyenas and hominins in the Middle Paleolithic Levant: New evidence from Geula Cave, Israel

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 6, Page 896-914, August 2026.
ABSTRACT While competition with large carnivores is likely to have shaped Middle Paleolithic hominins' subsistence behavior, palimpsested human and carnivore accumulations render the signal challenging to isolate. This study presents a detailed zooarchaeological and taphonomic analysis of a non‐anthropogenic faunal assemblage from a MIS 5 (~130–80 ka ...

Museomic phylogenomics of Orthosiinae (Apocynaceae) integrating targeted sequencing and morphology

open access: yesTAXON, Volume 75, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Museum collections offer valuable resources for phylogenetic research, especially in taxonomically challenging groups. Here, we present a phylogenetic study of the South American Apocynaceae subtribe Orthosiinae, based on sequencing 835 nuclear genes and chloroplast genomes from ~120 species using a family‐specific probe set and multiple ...

A revision of the genus Armeria (Plumbaginaceae) in peninsular Italy and Sicily through an integrative taxonomic approach

open access: yesTAXON, Volume 75, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract The genus Armeria in peninsular Italy has been affected by taxonomic ambiguity for more than a century due to high morphological variability. We present a comprehensive revision of peninsular Italian and Sicilian Armeria species, using an integrated taxonomic approach that combines molecular phylogeny, plant and seed morphometrics, and ...
