Beyond species diversity: Functional responses of cave arthropods to microclimatic stability and structural complexity

Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 4, Page 715-728, August 2026.
Species richness declined along cave microclimatic gradient, while diversity increased with habitat heterogeneity, highlighting distinct roles of abiotic conditions and structural complexity in shaping arthropod communities. Functional traits shifted along the microclimatic gradient, with larger‐bodied and more eye‐regressed arthropods dominating under

Nest boxes as microhabitats supporting diverse arthropod communities

Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 4, Page 832-837, August 2026.
Diverse Micro‐Habitats: Nest boxes supported 3634 arthropods from 82 families, highlighting their significant conservation value as artificial micro‐habitats for diverse invertebrate communities beyond their primary use for birds. Occupancy Boosts Diversity: Occupied nests exhibited significantly higher arthropod richness, abundance and Shannon ...

Histopathology of Nitrate Toxicity on Hepatopancreas of the Terrestrial Isopod, Porcellio laevis [PDF]

Assiut University Journal of Multidisciplinary Scientific Research, 2016
The intensive addition of nitrogenous fertilizers to soil leads to the accumulation of soil nitrate that in turn affects soil fauna. The hepatopancreas is the major metabolic organ in crustaceans.

She Doesn't Whisper: Female‐Prominent Stridulation Shaped by Morphology in a Buthid Scorpion and Insights on Its Function

Ethology, Volume 132, Issue 8, Page 533-543, August 2026.
Sexual dimorphism and stress‐induced stridulatory responses in Jaguajir rochae (Borelli, 1910). Females exhibited greater absolute pectinal size and higher sound pressure levels, whereas males showed higher pectinal allometric ratios relative to body size, lower sound frequencies, and shorter delta times.

The complete mitochondrial genome of the common sea slater, Ligia oceanica (Crustacea, Isopoda) bears a novel gene order and unusual control region features

BMC Genomics, 2006
Background Sequence data and other characters from mitochondrial genomes (gene translocations, secondary structure of RNA molecules) are useful in phylogenetic studies among metazoan animals from population to phylum level.

Temperate Forest Floors: Ecosystem Hubs in Transition?

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 8, August 2026.
The forest floor (FF) is a key component of carbon, nutrient, and water cycling and represents the most biologically active part of forest soils. Despite its importance, its response to environmental change and forest management remains insufficiently studied.

Along the Benthic to Holoplanktonic Continuum: Seafloor Affinity Increases Distance‐Decay Rates Among Abyssal Communities

Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Marine species ranges are often large, contributing to relatively high community similarity over space, with decreased ranges expected among taxa that have lower dispersal and/or higher substrate requirements. We tested for a weakening of biogeographic structuring among dispersing abyssal taxa along the benthic to holoplanktonic habitat ...
