Les coûts économiques des invasions biologiques en Afrique: une menace croissante mais négligée ?

open access: yes, 2021
International audienceBiological invasions can dramatically impact natural ecosystems and human societies. However, although knowledge of the economic impacts of biological invasions provides crucial insights for efficient management and policy, reliable

Enriching historical biologging datasets on seabirds using deep neural networks: A transformer‐based approach to infer energy expenditure proxy from GPS and environmental data

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent advances in biologging have led to the widespread use of accelerometers, which generate high‐resolution movement data essential for understanding animal behaviour. Derived from tri‐axial accelerometry, Overall Dynamic Body Acceleration (ODBA) serves as a proxy for energy expenditure that is less invasive and more cost‐effective than ...

A new pest recorded in Italy: The South African citrus thrips, Scirtothrips aurantii (Thysanoptera: Thripidae)

open access: yesEPPO Bulletin, EarlyView.
Abstract The South African citrus thrips, Scirtothrips aurantii Faure, 1929, has been recorded in Italy for the first time. This species was recently reported in Spain and Portugal. Its presence has been confirmed in the major citrus‐growing area of Catania province (Sicily), infesting citrus trees. S. aurantii is currently included in the EPPO A1 List

First record of Serangium montazerii (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae): A new exotic predator of Aleurocanthus spiniferus (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) in Greece

open access: yesEPPO Bulletin, EarlyView.
Abstract The biodiversity of Greek agroecosystems is constantly changing, with the influx of new species reshaping food webs. The present study contributes to the documentation of Greek fauna by reporting, for the first time, the occurrence of the Asian predatory ladybird Serangium montazerii Fürsch (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae). The species was detected

Aquatic macrophytes as nature‐based solutions: Challenges and opportunities across inland and coastal waters

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 4, July 2026.
Abstract Macrophytes are foundation species whose use as nature‐based solution (NbS) in aquatic ecosystems can help reduce climate change impacts while mitigating biodiversity loss. The discrepancy in research and application of macrophytes as NbS across inland and marine coastal ecosystems is an opportunity to expand the concept and learn from ...

Exploring Progesterone Levels and Scaled Mass Index as Predictors of Pregnancy in Free‐Ranging Belugas

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Monitoring pregnancy rates can provide vital information regarding a population's viability and trajectory. This study combined drone‐based photogrammetry with biopsy darting to determine if the Scaled Mass Index (SMI) estimated from aerial images can be used to identify pregnant, free‐ranging St.

Warming summers limit reindeer grazing, weakening herbivory pressure in the mountain tundra

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2026, Issue 6, June 2026.
Climate change is predicted to alter species interactions by exposing ecosystems to increasingly frequent and intense warm spells. In the mountain tundra, grazing by large herbivores, particularly reindeer, can limit shrub expansion and preserve Arctic plant diversity.

Individual specialization and temporal changes in Antarctic fur seal trophic ecology from a multi‐tracer approach

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Substantial individual variation in diet and foraging strategies can exist within populations. These differences can enhance individual foraging efficiency, reduce intraspecific competition, and provide fitness advantages that increase the resilience of a population.

When invasions go unnoticed: Public perception of the freshwater jellyfish Craspedacusta sowerbii in Europe

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 1957-1973, June 2026.
Abstract Biological invasions are a major driver of biodiversity loss, yet inconspicuous or “cryptic” species often escape detection and public awareness, limiting management responses. We investigated the freshwater jellyfish Craspedacusta sowerbii, likely native to China and now present on six continents, through a 22‐month multilingual online survey
