Journal of Systematics and Evolution, Volume 63, Issue 6, Page 1501-1518, November 2025.Investigating the systematics and biogeography of Neotropical catfishes of the genus Rhamdia refined phylogenetic hypotheses, including deep paraphyly of Rhamdia laticauda, supported northward dispersal catalyzed by emergence of the Panamanian Isthmus and imply that cave colonization is widespread, convergent, and recent, with established cave‐dwelling

Ephemeral Speciation in a New Guinean Honeyeater Complex (Aves: Melidectes)
Molecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 21, November 2025.ABSTRACT Speciation is a fundamental concept in evolutionary biology, and understanding the mechanisms driving speciation remains the foremost research topic within this field. Hybridisation is often involved in speciation and can influence its rates, potentially accelerating, decelerating or even reversing the process.

Montagem e anotação do genoma mitocondrial de cinco espécies de lepidópteros utilizando dados públicos [PDF]
, 2023 Mesmo sendo organismos modelo para estudos de genética, biologia molecular, evolução, especiação, adaptação e, também, importantes agentes polinizadores que influenciam a dinâmica de toda a ecologia e biodiversidade de plantas com flores no planeta ...

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 6, Issue 4, October–December 2025.Conservation translocations of the Bahamian hutia, a threatened Caribbean rodent, have prompted concerns about vegetation damage. Extensive vegetation damage reported on John Higgs Cay (Turks and Caicos Islands), along with the presence of abundant large faecal pellets and local traditions of large‐bodied rodents called ‘hootees’, was suggestive of ...

Frequent Hybridisation Between Parapatric Lekking Bird‐of‐Paradise Species
Molecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 11, June 2025.ABSTRACT Hybridisation is known to occur between a wide range of taxa, including species for which strong sexual selection has led to markedly different sexual phenotypes and lek‐mating behaviours. To what extent occasional hybridisation can overcome the reproductive barriers in such systems and, for example, lead to the establishment of hybrid zones ...

Data from: Evidence of genetic erosion in a peripheral population of a North American game bird: the Montezuma quail (Cyrtonyx montezumae) [PDF]
, 2019 Population extirpations are often precursors to species extinctions. Anthropogenic activities often lead to smaller populations that are more prone to extirpations and advocates for active conservation management have recently called for the preservation

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 1, January 2025.We designed eDNA primers for the critically endangered Bellinger River turtle (Myuchelys georgesi) using a bioinformatically assembled mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) derived from a reference genome. We validated these eDNA primers in silico, in vitro and in situ.

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 25, Issue 1, January 2025.ABSTRACT Low coverage ‘genome‐skims’ are often used to assemble organelle genomes and ribosomal gene sequences for cost‐effective phylogenetic and barcoding studies. Natural history collections hold invaluable biological information, yet poor preservation resulting in degraded DNA often hinders polymerase chain reaction‐based analyses.

Zoologica Scripta, Volume 54, Issue 1, Page 33-49, January 2025.Abstract Temnothorax unifasciatus (Latreille, 1798) is a widely distributed pan‐European species from the Iberian Peninsula to the Caucasus. This taxon's relatively high morphological variability prompts the taxonomists of earlier times and today to mention the morphologically different elements at specific or subspecific ranks.
