Mapping Priority Havens: Interactive Effects of Climate Change and Predator Dynamics on Sea Turtle Nesting Patterns

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aims Understanding broad‐scale ecological responses to global change is essential for investigating and conserving biodiversity. Sea turtles, with their ancient evolutionary history and global distribution, serve as an ideal model for understanding these ecological responses.

Speciation History Shapes Patterns of Assemblage Species Richness in Birds

Ecology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 6, June 2026.
Speciation is the ultimate source of biodiversity. However, because most species arise in spatial isolation, how speciation shapes patterns of co‐occurring species richness remains unclear. Here we examine how the legacy of speciation affects contemporary biodiversity patterns via a phylogenetic model and show that this build‐up is remarkably slow and ...

In Search of the Lost Brown Trout (Salmo trutta Complex) Using DNA of Ancient and Modern Samples From the Southern Italian Peninsula

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The current diversity and distribution of species and populations have been shaped by the major climatic oscillations during the Quaternary. The brown trout (Salmo trutta) is a striking example of the strong effect of past climate changes on the evolutionary history of species, in fact, the alternation of glacial/interglacial cycles has led to

Visual Modelling to Predict Behavioural Responses of Catsharks, Skates, and Plaice to Artificial Light for Use in Bycatch Reduction

Fisheries Management and Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 3, Page 463-478, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Light can be used to deter bycatch from fishing nets, but few studies have aimed to quantify how species view and respond to light. Here, we used visual models to predict how target (plaice Pleuronectes platessa) and bycatch (small‐spotted catshark Scyliorhinus canicular and undersized skates, Raja spp) species, captured in mixed demersal ...

The Integration of Fire Ecology and Freshwater Ecosystems in North America: Knowledge Gaps and Research Needs

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 6, June 2026.
Illustration of key knowledge gaps and pathways linking fire ecology and freshwater ecosystems. Climate change provides the overarching context, interacting with cumulative and cross‐scale effects to shape local freshwater conditions. Within this context, fire characteristics influence three primary pathways within freshwater ecosystems: species and ...

Whole‐Genome‐Sequencing Reveals Demographic History and Patterns of Parallel Adaptive Evolution in Indo‐Pacific Bottlenose Dolphins (Tursiops aduncus) Across Coastal Australian Seascapes

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 11, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding how demographic dynamics interact with environmental heterogeneity is central to explaining patterns of genomic variation in the marine realm. Indo‐Pacific bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops aduncus) occur along most of the Australian coastline, from tropical to temperate waters, encompassing pronounced differences in temperature ...

Genomic Insights Into the Evolutionary History of Berardius Beaked Whales: Speciation Driven by Resource Specialization, Gigantism and Thermal Barriers?

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 12, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding the diversity of our oceans is fundamental now more than ever as climate change and human activities put increasing pressure on marine species and ecosystems. Beaked whales (family Ziphiidae) are among the most poorly understood marine mammals, in part due to their affinity to offshore underwater canyons and prolonged diving ...

Citizen science reveals host‐switching in louse flies and keds (Diptera: Hippoboscidae) during a period of anthropogenic change

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 305-322, June 2026.
A study of louse flies in the United Kingdom, Isle of Man, and Ireland found 212 different interactions between Hippoboscidae and their hosts, of which 70 were previously unrecorded. No louse flies were found on aquatic species of birds. Host‐switching to gulls (Laridae) has occurred during a period in which these species have started relying on ...

International principles and standards for the practice of ecological restoration. Third edition

Restoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue S2, June 2026.
Abstract Introduction Growth in understanding of ecological restoration necessitates updated guidance for effective, equitable, and outcome‐oriented restoration across terrestrial, inland water, and coastal and marine ecosystems. The third edition of the Society for Ecological Restoration (SER) International Principles and Standards for the Practice of
