NUEVOS PECES DULCEACUICOLAS HOSPEDEROS DE LARVAS DE GORDIACEOS (NEMATOMORPHA) EN EL SUR DE CHILE
Nematomorpha Vejdovsky, 1886 includes most of its species in the taxon Gordiida, presenting a freshwater free-living adult and a parasitic larval stage that live in some aquatic invertebrates, amphibians and fish. Present results documented morphological

The Evolution and Ecology of Host Manipulation in Helminth Parasites: A Phylogenetic Meta‐Analysis
Host manipulation by parasites is wide spread but the conditions shaping it remain unclear. In a phylogenetic meta‐analysis on trophically transmitted helminths, manipulation reliably increased host predation susceptibility to predation in mature parasites, while the effect of immature parasites remained unclear.

We investigated riparian bryophytes as habitat for aquatic invertebrates in an interior Pacific Northwest (PNW) salmonid stream system. Our results demonstrate that bryophytes are highly productive habitat for aquatic invertebrates in interior Pacific Northwest salmonid streams.

Structural Basis of GABAB Receptor Activation during Evolution
This study explores the structural and functional mechanisms of the drosophila GABAB receptor, a key role in neurotransmission. Using cryo‐EM, the research reveals how the receptor's activation differs from its human counterpart, highlighting unique evolutionary features.

Abstract The identification of organisms in environmental samples using metabarcoding relies on factors such as taxonomic assignment methods, genetic markers, reference databases and confidence thresholds for taxonomic assignment. Because lineages evolve at different rates, a global threshold (e.g.

New hairworm (Nematomorpha, Gordiida) species described from the Arizona Madrean Sky Islands
Gordiids, or freshwater hairworms, are members of the phylum Nematomorpha that use terrestrial definitive hosts (arthropods) and live as adults in rivers, lakes, or streams.

Abstract Invertebrate richness and community composition are key indicators of aquatic ecosystem health. Compared with morphotaxonomy‐based survey methods, DNA metabarcoding is a highly efficient and scalable biomonitoring approach that has become increasingly used in invertebrate surveys.
