Individual bumblebee foraging repertoires: Implications for disease persistence

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 11, Page 3435-3447, November 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Generalist species may be comprised of individual specialists. Individual specialization can impact disease transmission at shared resources by shaping contact patterns. Mathematical models of pollinator diseases that spread via flowers have shown that R0 can be greatly

How wildlife respond to tropical cyclones: short‐term tactics and long‐term impacts

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 2081-2102, October 2026.
ABSTRACT From butterflies to lizards and from sharks to seabirds, wildlife exhibit tactics to survive the impacts of tropical cyclones, also known as hurricanes, cyclones, or typhoons depending on where they occur. Some species seek refuge during the storm by moving, some remain in place and ride it out, and others move longer distances, avoiding the ...

The effects of dune plant roots on loggerhead turtle (Caretta caretta) nest success

Ecology and Evolution
Sand dunes are supported by the extensive root systems of dune plants that anchor the dune and protect it from erosion. While all plants that grow on the dunes support their structure, invasive plants can outcompete the native and non‐native dune plants ...

Pyramidal carapace deformity in a loggerhead sea turtle (Caretta caretta) in Tunisia

Open Veterinary Journal
Background: Shell abnormalities in loggerhead sea turtles (Caretta caretta) remain insufficiently documented, although they may provide important clues about developmental disorders and environmental pressures impacting this species.

First Record of Triplet Embryos in Sea Turtles: Evidence of Natural Polyembryony in a Wild Green Turtle (Chelonia mydas) Nest From Guanahacabibes, Cuba

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
A rare case of polyembryonic triplets in a wild green turtle (Chelonia mydas) nest demonstrates how multiple embryos can develop within a single egg under natural conditions. Morphological and embryological evidence, including independent yolk vasculature and marked asymmetry among embryos, support a monozygotic origin and highlight developmental ...

Genetic Identity and Diversity of Loggerhead Sea Turtles in the Central Mediterranean Sea

Genes
Background: The conservation of loggerhead sea turtles (Caretta caretta) in the central Mediterranean benefits from an in-depth understanding of its population genetic structure and diversity. Methods: This study, therefore, investigates C. caretta in Maltese waters by genetically analysing 63 specimens collected through strandings and in-water ...
