Leveraging Long‐Term Ecological Research Initiatives Into the One Health Synthesis

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
We address important ecological and evolutionary considerations for advancing a One Health perspective by drawing attention to faunal and ecosystem changes occurring through the Great Plains of North America that have strong implications for future risk of emerging pathogens including zoonoses.

Aonchotheca yannickchavali n. sp. (Nematoda: Capillariidae) in Bandicota indica (Bechstein, 1800) and Bandicota savilei (Thomas, 1916) (Rodentia: Muridae) collected from Thailand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
During previous surveys of helminths in rodents from Southeast Asia, an unnamed species of Aonchotheca was recovered from the stomach of several rodent species. In the present study, the description of the new species Aonchotheca yannickchavali n. sp. is

Do Marine Mammals Diversify More Slowly Than Non‐Marine Mammals?

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Species richness is generally lower in marine than in terrestrial ecosystems, but the reasons behind this disparity remain unclear. This study examines whether marine mammals diversify at a slower pace than their non‐marine counterparts, aiming to shed light on the factors explaining potential diversification differences among them ...

Life at the Edge (of the Sahara): Evolutionary History of Two Understudied Genera of African Gerbils

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Understanding the distribution and genetic structure of African mammals is key to reconstructing the continent's evolutionary history. While some parts of the continent (e.g., lowlands, mountain forests or savannah biomes) are now relatively well‐studied, arid regions remain underexplored despite offering unique insights into adaptation to
