Not Cryptogenic: Molecular and Historical Evidence Supports Introduction of Asparagopsis taxiformis (Rhodophyta) Into the Galápagos Islands

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Identifying the origins of widespread species is crucial for conservation in isolated biodiversity hotspots, where ‘cryptogenic’ status often hinders effective biosecurity. We investigated the genetic identity and introduction history of the red macroalga Asparagopsis taxiformis in the Galápagos Islands to resolve its cryptogenic status ...

Global Patterns, Drivers and Conservation Gaps of Freshwater Crabs: From Species Richness to Phylogenetic Diversity

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Freshwater crabs are ecologically vital benthic macroinvertebrates that sustain freshwater ecosystem functions, yet their limited dispersal and fragmented habitats make them vulnerable to human disturbance. Current conservation assessments for freshwater crabs remain incomplete, as most studies focus on species richness while neglecting ...

Antipredatory Strategies of Anurans: An Updated Conceptual Review

open access: yesEthology, Volume 132, Issue 9, Page 662-708, September 2026.
To unravel the evolutionary dynamics of predator–prey interactions, we propose an updated, three‐tiered classification of anuran antipredatory strategies. By mapping non‐behavioral, individual, and group defenses across five functional phases, this integrative framework introduces the concept of synergetic coupling.

Are Species Distribution Models That Use Climate Variables Suitable to Forecast the Changing Distribution of Freshwater Organisms?

open access: yesFreshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Species distribution models can be used to identify locations with environmental conditions suitable for populations in the past, present and future. However, climate variables commonly applied in species distribution models may be unsuitable for freshwater species because their explanatory power is difficult to assess.

Aquatic Insect Thermal Responses Vary by Physiological Rate and Diet

open access: yesFreshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Temperature is an important control on metabolic rate and organismal contribution to ecosystem processes. Many studies have measured aquatic insect thermal performance, but fewer have simultaneously measured thermal responses for multiple physiological rates and examined how these responses are modulated by diet.
