Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 4, August 2026.ABSTRACT Reducing fishmeal (FM) use in aquafeeds is essential for sustainable aquaculture, but excessive replacement with alternative proteins may impair fish growth and physiological performance. This study evaluated the performance thresholds of graded FM replacement in probiotic‐supplemented alternative protein diets for climbing perch (Anabas ...

Response of the Diet Composition of Carassius auratus to Water Quality in Dianchi Lake, China
Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 4, August 2026.ABSTRACT Understanding the relationship between the diet composition of fish and water quality is significant for assessing fish responses to habitat changes. However, due to the complexity and diversity of both fish feeding and water quality, the relationship between the diet composition of fish and water quality is not fully understood to date.

Classifying avian drinking behaviour: ecological insights and implications in a changing world
Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 1851-1862, August 2026.ABSTRACT Water is a fundamental currency of life, and its availability significantly influences animal behaviour, physiology and distributions. However, our knowledge around the dependence on water for drinking and the direct and indirect mechanisms driving related behaviours remains partial in the context of changing climates. Here, we review patterns

Decaying Logs Shape the Distribution of Bird‐Mediated Seed Rain in a Temperate Deciduous Forest
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.Sites used by birds for perching and roosting function simultaneously as defecation points, concentrating diaspores transported via endozoochory. In contrast, the role of perching structures in shaping bird‐mediated seed rain within forest ecosystems remains poorly understood.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.This figure shows the true habitat type of Dryophytes suweonensis that this paper aims to demonstrate. ABSTRACT The Suweon treefrog (Dryophytes suweonensis (Kuramoto, 1980)), a critically endangered amphibian endemic to the Korean Peninsula, is widely regarded as being closely associated with rice paddies.

Reexamining Sexual and Species Recognition in Butterflies: The Partner‐Hazard Space Framework
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.Our review found no evidence that butterflies recognize the same sex or their own species. Behaviors previously interpreted as sexual or species recognition are indistinguishable from those interpreted as mate choice. Butterfly interactions can therefore be explained by assuming a sexual‐partner template that elicits mating behavior and a hazard ...

Twenty‐Year Progress in Landscape Genetics of Tetrapods
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.Geographic distribution of tetrapod landscape genetics between 2003 and 2025. ABSTRACT Landscape genetics, an interdisciplinary field integrating population genetics, landscape ecology, and spatial analytical techniques, has progressed significantly over two decades, yet systematic reviews of its application to tetrapods remain limited. Here, we review

Food Availability Cannot Explain Dispersal and Settlement Decisions of a Grassland Bird
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.We test a commonly assumed explanation for animal movements—namely that food availability shapes where animals disperse to. Based on the results of four strong predictions, 3 years of data, and hundreds of individual birds, we show that food cannot explain breeding dispersal in this system, and we propose alternative explanations consistent with our ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.Prospecting Western Bluebirds demonstrated a strong response to public information simulating reproductive success within nest boxes deployed in agricultural systems, but this initial attraction did not translate to increased box selection the following breeding season.
