Methods for Improving Settlement and Metamorphosis of Shelled Marine Mollusks in Aquaculture: A Review

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.
Settlement and metamorphosis are key developmental hurdles in marine mollusk aquaculture. Environmental signals (such as biofilms, algae, and signals from conspecifics) and biochemical pathways (including nitric oxide, thyroid hormones, catecholamines, and GABA) regulate the transition of larvae into benthic juveniles. Combining ecological observations

Individual Escape Flight Performance Is Repeatable and Differs Between Long‐Tailed Finch (Poephila acuticauda) Subspecies but Not as Predicted by Asymmetrical Introgression

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
We repeatedly tested 158 individual long‐tailed finches, Poephila acuticauda, of two different sub‐species and their hybrids for differences in their flight performances. Several flight performance variables were repeatable across individuals. Contrary to expectations, P. a. hecki individuals did not display superior flight performance to P.

Potential Causes of Shedding Aggregations in Prairie Rattlesnakes

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
The mechanisms that underpin aggregation behavior in animals—and the cues that elicit it—inform our understanding of how animals resolve tradeoffs among selection pressures. We documented aggregation during ecdysis in a population of asynchronously shedding prairie rattlesnakes (Crotalus viridis) and tested predictions generated from the four ...

Different Transcriptional Responses to Developmental Versus Short‐Term Acclimation Temperatures in Pieris rapae

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
Transcriptomic data indicates that gene expression responses underlying developmental thermal plasticity differ from those of short‐term acclimation temperature in the butterfly Pieris rapae. We also identify a small subset of genes for which expression levels depend on the interaction of developmental temperature and short‐term acclimation temperature.

The Benefit of Maternal Care and Infanticide by Males as Reproductive Strategies in a Caprellid Amphipod

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
In the marine amphipod Caprella kominatoensis, males perform infanticide to terminate maternal care and accelerate female molting for mating opportunities. However, we found that maternal defense is effective when the female parent is larger than the intruding male.
