Zoologica Scripta, Volume 55, Issue 5, Page 718-727, September 2026.ABSTRACT Subfamily Leuciscinae, the largest freshwater fish group of the western Palearctic region, has been widely studied, including the phylogenetic relationships between its species and genera. However, until now, one genus completely escaped attention in this regard. Even though several works hypothesised about its evolutionary relationships based

Early Pliocene Varanus (Squamata, Varanidae) remains from Megalo Emvolon, Thessaloniki, Greece
The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 8, Page 2100-2123, August 2026.The article describes new cranial and postcranial varanid material from Megalo Emvolon Lower Pliocene vertebrate fossil site near Thessaloniki. The fossils, likely representing a single individual, are referred to Varanus cf. marathonensis. Abstract This study describes new fossil varanid material from a recently discovered fossil spot (MVL site) at ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.Talipariti (Malvaceae) comprises two lineages with contrasting geographic ranges across Malesia: a pantropical sea hibiscus group and a Papuan group restricted to New Guinea and adjacent islands. Using phylogenomics, divergence‐time estimation, and quantitative biogeographical modelling applied to herbarium‐derived genomic data, we demonstrate that the

Spatial‐Scale Evolutionary Bias Sheds Light on the Latitudinal Diversity Gradient
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.Using Escherichia coli as a model species, our experimental findings reveal that populations in high‐fitness‐gain geographic regions undergo rapid expansion, competitively excluding populations from low‐fitness‐gain regions. This results in adaptive evolution that is biased toward areas with higher fitness potential.

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 8, August 2026.Erosion across the landscape is described at first order by a limited number (nine) of homogenous geomorphological and lithological domains. Using a dense set of basin wide denudation rates, it is possible to retrieve the contribution of each litho‐morpho‐domains as a function of their respective surface.

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 3, August 2026.The 1931 Hawke's Bay earthquake (∼MS 7.8) stands as one of New Zealand's most devastating, causing widespread liquefaction and damage across the city of Napier. However, Napier remains underrepresented in liquefaction hazard studies as compared to other regions in the country.
