Planktonic larval stages—an adaptation to lower predation rates in the pelagic environment?

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 70, Issue 11, Page 3417-3430, November 2025.
Abstract A majority of marine benthic macroinvertebrate and fish species have planktonic larval stages that disperse in the water column from days to months. However, the adaptive significance of pelagic larvae, and whether predation is higher in the pelagic or the benthic environment, is still debated, partly due to a lack of studies assessing larval ...

Exploring interdisciplinary aspects for conservation management: The case of land hermit crab wildlife trade in Taiwan

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 7, Issue 8, Page 2051-2064, August 2025.
Abstract Most conservation policies and management primarily focus on vertebrate animals. However, considering the high demand for invertebrate species in the exotic pet markets, it is crucial to give them great consideration. This research explores Coenobita purpureus, a land hermit crab newly recorded in Taiwan in 2017.

A New Varunid Subfamily (Decapoda, Brachyura, Grapsoidea, Varunidae) for Crabs From European and West African Waters, With the Description of Two New Genera and Two New Species

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2025.
Morphological and DNA sequencing studies of Varunidae specimens, previously considered to belong to the genus Asthenognathus, from eastern Atlantic waters have allowed the description of two new genera and two new species. From a molecular point of view, it is shown that they belong to a new subfamily, distinct from Asthenognathinae and that there are ...
