Multi‐Seasonal eDNA Metabarcoding Highlights a Resurgence in Fish Diversity Across a Severely Impacted Estuarine Ecosystem

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Aquatic ecosystems have been in an alarming state of decline for decades. In particular, estuarine ecosystems have experienced long‐term declines in fish diversity due to factors such as habitat degradation, pollution and altered hydrology. Monitoring these systems is often limited by the difficulty and cost of conventional survey methods.

Phylogenetic Analyses of True Ladybirds (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae: Coccinellini) Reveal Directionality in Diet Evolution and Support a Boreotropical Origin of the Tribe

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
A newly generated large‐scale molecular phylogeny of true ladybirds (Coccinellini) clarifies their evolutionary relationships and supports a boreotropical origin in the Paleocene, with multiple independent southward dispersals. Ancestral diet reconstructions suggest an initial specialization on aphids, followed by expansions in host range and ...

Morphological Stasis in Wing Traits Despite Species Diversification in African and Malagasy Miniopterus Bats

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
This study evaluates whether diversification in Malagasy and African Miniopterus is associated with divergence in linear wing morphology. Principal component and morphospace analyses indicate that wing morphology is highly conserved across species, with most variation reflecting differences in size rather than shape.

What are the vector species of the Oropouche virus?

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 4, Page 2785-2793, April 2026.
Here, we review the timeline of Oropouche virus (OROV) detection in various hematophagous Diptera, from 1955 to date, including mosquitoes and midges. All vector competence experiments also are described. The results suggest that Culicoides are the primary vectors.

Dispersal and delimitation: Phylogenomics of Connaraceae prompts revised generic delimitation in Cnestideae and reveals global biogeographic patterns

TAXON, Volume 75, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract The tempo and mode of assembly of the world's most diverse, tropical floras remain poorly known. Evolutionary relationships within pantropical plant clades such as Connaraceae (Oxalidales, ca. 220 species) offer an opportunity to address this issue.
