Fraternal cooperation of hierarchical cancer parallels metazoan multicellularity and eusociality

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 1, Page 400-418, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Metazoan multicellularity and eusociality — both outcomes of the fraternal major transitions — have numerous features in common such as uneven distribution of group‐establishing potential. In addition to this framework, I argue herein that the group‐forming principles of metazoan multicellularity and eusociality are analogous to hierarchical ...

Facilitative interspecific interactions in marine vertebrates across scales: from individuals to ecosystems

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 1, Page 519-538, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Facilitative interspecific interactions (FIIs) confer benefits to at least one participant without detriment to others. Although often less emphasised than antagonistic interactions in ecological studies, this review highlights the significant ecological role of FIIs across biological scales – from individual behaviours to population ...

Impacts of bat use of anthropogenic structures on bats and humans

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Human‐induced landscape modifications and climate change are forcing wildlife into closer contact with humans as the availability of natural habitats decreases. Although the importance of anthropogenic structures for the conservation of species is widely recognized, negative narratives surrounding bats may impede conservation efforts in human ...

Evolution of research on global amphibian declines

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract In the late 1980s, the scientific community became aware of severe, enigmatic amphibian population declines. These declines triggered a wave of research focused on quantifying their extent and identifying key drivers. We used text‐analysis techniques, including topic modeling and geoparsing, to examine the evolution of research focused on ...

Effects of temperature and humidity on the presence and prevalence of a common fungal parasite on an invasive ladybird

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, Page 86-97, February 2026.
We investigated how temperature and relative humidity influence the parasitic fungus Hesperomyces harmoniae on the invasive ladybird Harmonia axyridis under controlled laboratory conditions. Abiotic factors significantly affect parasitism: High relative humidity increased parasite prevalence, development rate, and load, while both low and high ...
