Retention Bans Are Beneficial but Insufficient to Stop Shark Overfishing
Fish and Fisheries, Volume 26, Issue 3, Page 473-487, May 2025.ABSTRACT Sharks are among the most threatened groups of exploited fishes, comprising common bycatch across many fisheries. Management efforts intended to safeguard threatened species have increasingly focused on retention bans to reduce bycatch mortality. However, the population effects of such measures remain unevaluated across species.

Observations on Phallocryptus spinosa (Branchiopoda, Anostraca) populations from the high plateaus of Northeastern Algeria [PDF]
, 2015 Phallocryptus spinosa (Thamnocephalidae) is a small primitive crustacean which lives in temporary saline pools of the Palaearctic region called Chott, Sebkha, Garâa or Daya in North Africa. Data on its biology and life history are very scarce despite its

Transgenerational Plasticity of Maternal Hemolymph Trehalose in Aphids
Archives of Insect Biochemistry and Physiology, Volume 118, Issue 1, January 2025.Maternal hemolymph trehalose influences aphid transgenerational plasticity and adaptation to environmental stress. Higher trehalose levels in winged aphids are associated with increased trehalose levels in the offspring, potentially aiding resilience.

Aquaculture Research, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.The increase in fish production in aquaculture reflects the growth of the world population. However, this expansion is accompanied by challenges, such as the intensification of production systems through increased stocking density, which induces stress in fish, weakening their immune system and making them more susceptible to disease outbreaks ...

Observations on the egg-cases of some ovo-viviparous and viviparous elasmobranchs, with a note on the formation of the elasmobranch egg-case [PDF]
, 1951 Egg-cases of a number of oviparous Elasmobranchs have been described from time to time, the oblong egg-capsules of skates and rays being known as `skate barrows,' 'sailors' purses,' 'mermaids' purses,' and 'mermaids' pin-boxes'.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 11, November 2024.Turtle body size and limb size scale nearly isometrically along the group's evolution, although major deviations are only seen in highly specialized ecological or morphological groups. The evolution of the shell constrained turtle body proportions, as they show lower rates of variance accumulation in these allometries than other more diverse and ...

Extraembryonic Membranes and Placentation in the Mexican Snake Conopsis lineata
Journal of Morphology, Volume 285, Issue 10, October 2024.This research is mainly focused on the structure of the extraembryonic membranes and placentation of the viviparous snake Conopsis lineata, during the gestation. C. lineata is a lecithotrophic species, eggs/embryos that develop inside the uterus remain enclosed by a thin eggshell membrane with unchanged fibers throughout gestation; and it has five ...
