Diet Switching and Interspecific Competition in Sympatric Steppe Ungulates Under Seasonal Resource Variability

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding the mechanisms of competition and coexistence among sympatric species is crucial for deepening our understanding of interspecific interactions and informing the conservation of rare and endangered wildlife. In this study, we utilized DNA macro‐barcoding technology to analyze the seasonal dietary habits of Kiang (Equus kiang) and ...

Soil Fauna Alter the Relationship Between Plant Litter Diversity and Microbial Communities in Mixed Litter Decomposition

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
This study reveals a complex interplay among litter diversity, soil fauna, and microbial communities in subtropical forests. Soil fauna not only significantly affect microbial biomass and community composition, but also mitigate the negative effects of plant diversity on bacterial communities and reverse the associations between specific microbes and ...

Differentiation of Ecological Niches in Trophic Specialists From a Disturbed Lacustrine Ecosystem: Insights from the Sympatric Lake Tana Labeobarbs (Cyprinidae)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
Lake Tana harbors the world's most complex adaptive radiation of cyprinids in the world. Although trophic specialization has been proven to drive this diversification, the diet of endemics has been studied using only traditional stomach content analysis.

Freshwater Snails at the Biodiversity–Climate–Health Nexus: A Call to Recognize Neglected Models for Eco‐Evolutionary and One Health Research

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
Freshwater snails occupy a unique position at the intersection of biodiversity, climate, and health. I argue that their ecological plasticity, reproductive diversity, and role as parasite hosts make them powerful yet overlooked model systems for integrating eco‐evolutionary dynamics with One Health challenges.
