Material Before Morphology: Substrate‐Dependent Mechanical Tuning of Radular Teeth
Advanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 13, Issue 16, 18 August 2026.Substrate‐dependent material tuning in Clausilia radular teeth. Closely related taxa retain a conserved gross tooth morphology, but differ in elemental composition and mechanical properties according to feeding substrate. Rock‐associated taxa show increased Ca–Si enrichment and higher stiffness and hardness, especially in the central radular region ...

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 5, May 2026.ABSTRACT Introduction and Aim Spatiotemporal and taxonomic sampling bias in biodiversity occurrence data poses critical challenges for robust ecological inference, species distribution models (SDMs), and conservation planning. Despite the exponential growth in global biodiversity records over recent decades, these biases persist.

Archaeology in Oceania, Volume 61, Issue 1, Page 128-161, April 2026.ABSTRACT Shell middens in Gippsland along the eastern half of Victoria's coastline have usually been characterised as small, short‐duration camp sites with relatively low shell densities and low taxonomic diversity. Here we present new excavation results from a dense, high‐diversity site at Red Bluff near the eastern end of GunaiKurnai Country, a ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.This study investigated how temperature, turbidity and prey availability affect the diet, body condition and abundance of F. lapillum in two coastal ecosystems. Results showed seasonal and spatial variation, with body condition, abundance and gut volume positively correlated with warmer temperatures but not with turbidity.
