denim: An R package for deterministic compartmental models with flexible dwell‐time distributions

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 4, Page 1060-1068, April 2026.
Abstract Compartmental models are widely used for dynamical systems where states are discrete, such as in infectious disease epidemiology with the so‐called Susceptible‐Infectious‐Recovered (SIR) framework. For mathematical simplicity, rates of transition between compartments are generally assumed to be independent of the dwell time (or secondary ...

Cost‐Effectiveness of Applying Fluoride Varnish to Preschoolers in a Brazilian Scenario: An Economic Modelling Study

open access: yesCommunity Dentistry and Oral Epidemiology, Volume 54, Issue 2, Page 191-202, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background International economic evaluations have not found convincing evidence that the application of fluoride varnish (FV) in preschool children is a cost‐effective anti‐caries measure, and there is a lack of economic evaluations of FV in the Brazilian context.

Hobbyist preferences for pet freshwater turtles

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract The burgeoning pet trade is a primary threat to wild freshwater turtles worldwide. Although the risks from commercial exploitation of turtles have been discussed widely, there is little empirical research on preferences for pet turtles from a hobbyists’ perspective.

Distance of movement in three threatened butterfly species

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 2, Page 250-260, April 2026.
Multi‐year mark–recapture analysis using net displacement and Cormack–Jolly–Seber models shows similar daily detectability (0.17–0.22) among species, supporting robust interspecific comparisons. Dispersal kernels differ: lognormal best for Euphydryas aurinia and Parnassius apollo, exponential for Phengaris arion; P.

Herbarium Specimens Provide Evidence for the Early Introduction of Erysiphe quercicola Into the United States and Document New Hosts

open access: yesForest Pathology, Volume 56, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The powdery mildew fungus Erysiphe quercicola (Erysiphaceae) has a complex taxonomic history that has long complicated assessments of its geographic distribution and host associations. Although knowledge of the global host range of this species has expanded substantially over the past two decades, sequencing‐confirmed records from North ...
