In the Bag: Leaf Litter‐Filled Artificial Cover Objects Reveal Urban Habitat Associations for Predatory Invertebrates (Onychophora: Peripitoides novaezealandiae and Araneae: Uliodon spp.)

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 3, September 2026.
Velvet worms and vagrant spiders are two predatory invertebrate taxa that can occupy urban forests, but understanding their habitat associations in these environments has been hampered by a lack of effective monitoring methods. We assessed how forest age and type affected the numbers of velvet worms and vagrant spiders detected within leaf litter ...

From Cohesion to Norms: How Animal Groups Come, Stay, and Function Together

open access: yesEthology, Volume 132, Issue 9, Page 604-622, September 2026.
The present review underscores two salient points: In the context of evolutionary transitions to pair‐ and group living, it is imperative to acknowledge the distinction between selective forces that act during the origin of these social systems and those that act during their subsequent maintenance.

Antipredatory Strategies of Anurans: An Updated Conceptual Review

open access: yesEthology, Volume 132, Issue 9, Page 662-708, September 2026.
To unravel the evolutionary dynamics of predator–prey interactions, we propose an updated, three‐tiered classification of anuran antipredatory strategies. By mapping non‐behavioral, individual, and group defenses across five functional phases, this integrative framework introduces the concept of synergetic coupling.

Impacts of Ocean Acidification on Reproduction and Early Life Development in Marine Teleost Fish—A Synthesis

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 5, Page 1176-1192, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Ocean acidification (OA) remains a major and underexplored threat to marine fishes, particularly regarding reproductive physiology and early life stages (ELS). Although research over the past 15 years has documented diverse OA effects, substantial knowledge gaps persist.
