ABSTRACT Fungal pathogens pose a growing threat to vertebrate biodiversity. In snakes, Ophidiomyces ophidiicola (Oo) has garnered particular concern, although its impact in Europe remains poorly understood. We conducted a season‐long, standardized survey of dice snakes (Natrix tessellata) along the northern shore of Lake Como (Italy) to quantify Oo and

Selective plane illumination (SPI) is combined with SERS spectral imaging to reduce background, improve image contrast, and enable improved spectroscopy from molecules on the surface of nanoparticles. This approach provides improved imaging and spectroscopy from nanoparticles in complex environments, such as biological cells.

Perspectives on wildlife agency mange management in black bears and other carnivores
Wildlife professionals across 17 states shared insights on sarcoptic mange management in black bears and other carnivores. Findings reveal shared priorities for dispatching severely affected individuals, support for public reporting, and a desire for coordinated messaging, improved stakeholder engagement, and centralized data systems to strengthen long‐
