The Geographical Variation of Colour Change in the Arabian Killifish (Aphaniops dispar Sensu Lato) From Freshwater and Marine Ecosystems

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
Animals that live in a wide range of environments possess plastic traits such as colour change, but most research has only looked at this within single populations. In this study, we tested four populations of the Arabian killifish from marine and freshwater ecosystems, examining how well they change colour against different backgrounds.

Oil Things Bright and Beautiful? How Hydrocarbon Pollution Impacts Guppy Ornamentation

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
Spatial variation in crude oil pollution in Trinidad leads to differing levels of pollutant exposure in connected guppy populations. Male guppy ornamentation is an important sexually selected trait affected by environmental changes. Measuring area and intensity of this ornamentation, we found guppies from anthropogenically polluted habitats had greater

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 ...
