Defying Expectations: Extended Lifespan and Age‐Related Telomere Dynamics in the Tropical Bat Species, Molossus molossus

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
We investigated age‐related telomere dynamics in the tropical bat Molossus molossus using a long‐term mark‐recapture study of 492 individuals from Panama. We documented a female surviving to at least 13 years, more than doubling the previously reported maximum lifespan, while finding no consistent evidence of age‐related telomere shortening.

Estimating Submesoscale‐Driven Particulate Organic Carbon Flux From Remote Sensing at a Dynamic Upwelling Front

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Submesoscale (1–10 km) vertical velocities at fronts enhance the exchange of particulate organic carbon (POC) and heat between the surface ocean and depth. While POC and temperature can be readily assessed in situ, direct quantification of flux remains uncertain due to the observational challenges of measuring submesoscale vertical velocities ...

The predatory behavior of ants: an impressive panoply of morphological adaptations

open access: yesInsect Science, Volume 33, Issue 4, Page 1256-1284, August 2026.
This review focuses on predation in ants, showing the wide diversity of cases from solitary foraging to group hunting tactics, as well as the evolution of mandible shape frequently adapted to capture specific prey. Although most ants are generalist feeders, finding their sugary substances directly on plants or indirectly via sap‐sucking insects, some ...

Apiotrichum‐Centered Fungal Interaction Network Disturbance Correlates With Increased Arterial Stiffness

open access: yesAging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 8, August 2026.
Apiotrichum‐centered gut fungal network disturbance correlates with increased arterial stiffness. Five driver genera including Apiotrichum, Mycothermus, Flavocillium, Hyaloscypha, and Microscypha regulate the interaction shift. Thirty‐nine metabolites comprising organic acids, fatty acyls, and sucrose target vasoconstriction regulators CYP11B2, ROCK2 ...
