Journal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 534, Issue 8, August 2026.Hydrothermal vent shrimps share a conserved brain architecture with enlarged mushroom bodies and terminal medullae, shaped by similar environmental pressures. Despite this similarity, some anatomical features near the brain vary between species, suggesting that some ecological factors, such as microhabitat and trophic strategies, also influence nervous

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.This study describes a new hexamerous epizoic brittle star species, Gymnolophus sexradia sp. nov., from the South China Sea, which lives on crinoid hosts and exhibits a six‐armed body plan possibly indicating fissiparity. Its vertebral and arm plate structures enhance horizontal flexibility for grasping the host, and phylogenetic analysis based on ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.In physically unobstructed and homogenized artificial ecosystems, dispersal limitation driven by geographic distance and unique hydraulic conditions replace environmental filtering as the primary deterministic process shaping diversity patterns. Furthermore, significant regulatory effects of food resources through trophic cascades reinforce this ...

Trait‐Based Drivers of Host Specificity in Freshwater Mussel–Fish Parasitic Interactions
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.Freshwater mussels (Unionidae) rely on an obligate parasitic larval stage on fish hosts, yet their host specificity remains poorly understood in a broader ecological and evolutionary context. By integrating phylogenetic, life‐history, and host‐use data, we show that host phylogenetic specificity is conserved but varies systematically with mussel life ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.Coastal development can alter the salinity fluctuations experienced by tidal creek systems. Understanding how resident organisms, such as the Gulf killifish, respond to these changes is critical, as development along the coastline is projected to triple in the coming decades.
