Aiouea affinis (Lauraceae): A New Tree Species From the Brazilian Atlantic Rainforest

open access: yesFeddes Repertorium, Volume 137, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aiouea is a Neotropical genus of Lauraceae currently comprising ca. 85 species. Descriptions of new taxa have been frequent in recent years, particularly in Brazil, which currently hosts 35 species, 24 of them being endemic. Based on a review of herbarium material and recent collections, we propose a new species, Aiouea affinis, named for its ...

Evaluating the Air Respiratory Capacity of Awaous (Chonophorus) tajasica (Gobiiformes: Oxudercidae): A Morpho‐Functional Study

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, Volume 345, Issue 5, Page 498-507, June 2026.
We demonstrated that Awaous tajasica performs facultative air breathing under experimental conditions of dissolved oxygen limitation, retaining air bubbles in the buccal cavity during gill ventilation. Morpho‐functional evidence indicates the use of atmospheric oxygen as a respiratory support under conditions of low water oxygenation.

Scheffrahnitermes ubuntu (Isoptera: Apicotermitinae), Description of a New Termite Using a Collaborative Approach to Address the Wallacean Shortfall

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 2, June 2026.
The study of Neotropical Apicotermitinae remains challenging due to the large number of undescribed taxa (Linnean shortfall) as well as the scarcity of distributional data (Wallacean shortfall). Despite recent efforts to reduce the first one, the second remains an even more significant challenge.

Incorporating Fossil Data Into Ecological Niche Models Enhances Predictions of the Past Distribution of Macaronesian‐Mediterranean Strawberry Trees

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
We demonstrate that fossil‐informed SDMs not only improve spatial accuracy and ecological realism in past projections, but also provide an external form of validation that traditional hindcasts often lack. ABSTRACT Hindcasting is a widely used method to predict the past distribution of plant species. However, its reliability is often constrained by the

Museu da Misericórdia, um Museu da Cidade?

open access: yes, 2012
À margem do percurso histórico da museologia, existem mundos de periferias culturais, onde os avanços técnico-científicos se debatem com as idiossincrasias das dinâmicas culturais das elites que compõe esses lugares. Setúbal, a sul de Lisboa, é um caso paradigmático.

Assessing Ecological Connectivity for Loxodonta africana Across Transfrontier Conservation Areas in Southern Mozambique

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
We present the first spatially explicit assessment of ecological connectivity for African bush elephant (Loxodonta africana) in southern Mozambique, spanning the Great Limpopo and Lubombo Transfrontier Conservation Areas. By integrating Resource Selection Function with landscape connectivity analysis, we provide spatially explicit prioritization of ...

American manatees adjust their diet composition and trophic niche breadth across different coastal regions

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 3, May 2026.
Abstract Marine mammals can exhibit high plasticity in foraging strategies, but how such plasticity is driven by environmental conditions is poorly understood. The American manatee (Trichechus manatus), a large, endangered herbivore, inhabits marine, estuarine, and freshwater environments.
