Environmental DNA metabarcoding reveals biodiversity recovery in tropical forest restoration across multiple landscapes

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Forest ecosystems have been degraded globally and restoration efforts aim to reverse loss of biodiversity and ecosystem function decline including carbon storage from the atmosphere. Assessments of restoration success predominantly emphasize increasing carbon stocks rather than species recovery.

Fuzzy relationships among plant dispersal mechanisms, syndromes, and animal vectors

Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Knowledge of which animal clades and dispersal mechanisms contribute to seed dispersal is critical for understanding the ecology and evolution of plant communities. However, a broad understanding is limited by a focus on single clades and mechanisms. Here, we analyzed a Europe‐wide multi‐clade seed dispersal dataset with interactions among 447

Species‐Specific qPCR Assays for Detecting Blue, Fin, and Sei Whales (Balaenoptera spp.) From Offshore Environmental DNA Samples

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 4, July‐August 2026.
Species‐specific eDNA qPCR assays were developed and validated for blue, fin, and sei whales and were tested alongside visual surveys in the northwest Atlantic. Results show strong concordance for fin whales, demonstrating eDNA's value for enhancing offshore monitoring of at‐risk large whales.

Re-evaluating hypertragulid diversity in the John Day basin, Oregon, USA [PDF]

Acta Palaeontologica Polonica
Despite their relative abundance, members of the family Hypertragulidae (Artiodactyla, Mammalia) have proved a conundrum regarding species diversity in the Turtle Cove Member (Oligocene) of the John Day Formation, located in central and eastern Oregon ...

SPROUTS_DB: An Implemented Database of Contaminants for Extracellular Vesicle Proteomics Studies

PROTEOMICS, Volume 26, Issue 7, Page 69-83, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Current proteomics techniques allow rapid identification and quantification of proteins within any given biological source. However, LC–MS/MS proteomics is vulnerable to laboratory and sample‐associated contaminants. Therefore, accurate identification and annotation of such contaminants is crucial for development of reliable databases ...

The genus Coryphodon in Europe: contribution of new exceptional material from Le Quesnoy (northern France, early Eocene, MP7)

Papers in Palaeontology, Volume 12, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
Abstract Pantodonts are an extinct group of herbivorous eutherian mammals. They comprise 8 families and 23 genera, ranging from the early Paleocene to the late Eocene, including Bemalambda, Barylambda, Titanoides, or Pantolambda. In Europe, only one genus is known, Coryphodon, represented by three species: C. eocaenus, C. anthracoideus and C.

Spatial and Seasonal Variation in Avian Dietary Strategies

Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Diet is a fundamental aspect of vertebrate life history, shaping survival, recruitment, and fitness. While spatial variation in avian dietary characteristics has been studied, seasonal dynamics at species and assemblage levels remain largely unexplored, hindering our understanding of biodiversity patterns and processes.

The raphe nuclear organization and serotonergic system in the bat (Artibeus planirostris)

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 249, Issue 1, Page 207-221, July 2026.
Schematic representation of the methodological workflow used to characterize the serotonergic (5‐HT) system in the bat Artibeus planirostris. Serotonin (5‐HT) immunohistochemistry was performed on brainstem sections to identify and map the distribution of serotonergic neurons within the raphe nuclei.
