Testing macroevolutionary predictions of the Grant‐Stebbins model in the origin of Aeschynanthus acuminatus

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 6, Page 3137-3148, March 2026.
Summary The Grant‐Stebbins model predicts that a plant species encountering different pollinators across its range may undergo local adaptation and, subsequently, ecological speciation. We tested whether this could explain the origin of Aeschynanthus acuminatus (Gesneriaceae), a species phylogenetically derived from sunbird specialist ancestors.

Avian influenza overview December 2025–February 2026

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Between 29 November 2025 and 27 February 2026, 2514 highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) A(H5) virus detections were reported in domestic (406) and wild (2108) birds in 32 countries in Europe. Albeit still at high levels after the peak was reached at the beginning of the current reporting period, the weekly number of detections has since ...

Wildlife Trade and Human Health in Lao PDR: An Assessment of the Zoonotic Disease Risk in Markets. [PDF]

, 2016
Although the majority of emerging infectious diseases can be linked to wildlife sources, most pathogen spillover events to people could likely be avoided if transmission was better understood and practices adjusted to mitigate risk.

Neuromeric Organization of the Microbat Brain: Conserved and Distinct Regional Features

Journal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 534, Issue 2, February 2026.
The fundamental neuromeric modular plan is remarkably conserved across bats and rodents. However, there are significant regional differences in the size and organization of specific derivatives (A). In addition, both Tadarida brasiliensis and Myotis myotis share similar general patterns of TH‐positive processes and tracts in the basal plate of the ...

Seasonality, Moisture, and Host Community Structure of Haemaphysalis Ticks in a Subtropical Urban Mosaic in Hong Kong, China

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
We integrated field surveys, DNA barcoding and integrative taxonomy, iDNA, and ecological modeling to resolve the distributions, seasonality, and host use of Haemaphysalis ticks across Hong Kong. Moisture was indicative of adult activity, and iDNA suggested predominant feeding on wild mammals, particularly wild boar and porcupine.

Temporal niche partitioning by nocturnal arboreal mammals increases the modularity of plant–frugivore networks in a fragmented subtropical landscape

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 463-475, February 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Animal‐mediated seed dispersal sustains plant diversity and ecosystem functioning, particularly in fragmented landscapes. However, the specific contributions of nocturnal frugivores, particularly in above‐ground (arboreal) strata, are often overlooked, leading to ...
