Detection and succession properties of forested vernal pools with eDNA metabarcoding
Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 1, January–March 2026.We examined the capacity of environmental DNA metabarcoding for studying biodiversity of forested vernal pools, using multiple assays to investigate different eukaryotic communities over space and time. Our results suggest that metabarcoding can serve as a complementary tool for ‘scaling up’ vernal pool biodiversity monitoring, illuminating ecological ...

Four new genera and five new species of 'Heterocypris' from Western Australia (Crustacea, Ostracoda, Cyprinotinae) [PDF]
, 2019 Five new species in four new genera from Western Australia are described. All species have valve characters that are reminiscent of the genus Heterocypris Claus, 1892 and also have similar valve outlines, with highly arched valves.

Ostracods from freshwater and brackish environments of the Carboniferous of the Midland Valley of Scotland : the early colonization of terrestrial water bodies [PDF]
, 2012 The Mississippian Strathclyde Group of the Midland Valley of Scotland yields some of the earliest non-marine ostracods. The succession records shallow marine, deltaic, estuarine, lagoonal, lacustrine, fluvial and swamp environments representing a series ...

Environmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 5, September–October 2025.The East Asian–Australasian Flyway (EAAF) is experiencing significant declines in migratory waterbird populations. Understanding the foraging ecology of waterbird species, particularly ducks, is crucial for monitoring and protecting their food sources and wetland habitats.

Biostratigraphy and palaeoecology of Ostracodes of the Members c1 to c4 and e of the Qom Formation in the South of Shurab, Southeast of Qom [PDF]
Journal of Stratigraphy and Sedimentology Researches: In order to study the Qom Formation, the ostracodes of members c1 to c4 and e of this formation were studied in the south Shurab section. The studied strata in this section have a significant abundance and diversity of ostracods.

Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 34, Issue 6, June 2025.ABSTRACT Motivation Groundwater ecosystems sustain a unique and globally important biodiversity but remain understudied due to sampling and exploration challenges, as well as a shortage of taxonomic experts. Groundwater ostracods, like other groundwater taxa, exhibit a high degree of endemism, rarity and subterranean specialisation, positioning them as

A review of Bennelongia De Deckker & McKenzie, 1981 (Crustacea, Ostracoda) species from eastern Australia with the description of three new species [PDF]
, 2012 Australia is predicted to have a high number of currently undescribed ostracod taxa. The genus Bennelongia De Deckker & McKenzie, 1981 (Crustacea, Ostracoda) occurs in Australia and New Zealand, and has recently shown potential for high speciosity, after
