Long‐Term Temporal Change of Small Mammal Composition and Abundance in the Food Intake of the Western Barn Owl (Tyto alba), Comparing Two Different Lowland Mesoregions

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
The object of this study is to evaluate and compare the changes of the small mammal assemblages between two lowland mesoregions in Hungary based on Western Barn Owl pellet analysis. Prey composition, diversity, and community dynamics differed markedly between the two lowland regions, indicating that local landscape characteristics and weather ...

Reference‐Guided Chromosome‐Scale Genome Assembly With Insights on Population Genomics of the Atlantic Goliath Grouper (Epinephelus itajara), Islas del Rosario, Colombia

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
We present a high‐quality chromosome‐level genome assembly and population genomic analysis of the critically endangered Goliath grouper (Epinephelus itajara) using PacBio HiFi and Illumina sequencing technologies. The 1.12 Gb genome assembly showed high contiguity and identified 22,692 protein‐coding genes, while comparative analyses revealed conserved

Climatic niche divergence and high‐elevation adaptation promoted rapid diversification of Pimoa spiders in Pan‐Himalaya

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 9, September 2026.
The Pan‐Himalayan region harbors exceptional biodiversity, yet the origins and underlying mechanisms driving this remarkable diversity remain poorly understood, especially among species‐rich invertebrates. Pimoa spiders exhibit an intercontinental disjunct distribution across three major mountain regions: the Rockies, the Alps, and the Pan‐Himalaya ...

A DNA sequence variation dataset across the understudied Andean poison frog genus Andinobates

Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The poison frog family Dendrobatidae has radiated into over 300 species throughout the past 30 million years, occupying the majority of neotropical forest habitats. Species in this group have diversified widely in multiple aspects of their biology such as predator avoidance and parental care strategies, reproductive ecology, chemical ecology ...

Through Time and Across Traits: Evaluating Explanations of Human Evolution

Evolutionary Anthropology: Issues, News, and Reviews, Volume 35, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT We argue that current explanatory practice misses two situations that can arise in any lineage, not only ours. The first is dynamic: traits continue changing in one direction when a lineage's own niche construction keeps enlarging the problem it faces.
