Exploring the Diversity of Temperate Mesophotic Rocky Reefs From ARMS and Water eDNA in Central Chile

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
LowerMesophoticEcosystems have greater alpha diversity and number of exclusive families, high turnover between LowerME and UpperME with clear differences in community composition. Water eDNA and ARMS eDNA are characterized by pelagic and benthic affinity respectively.

Hard Rock Buffet: Chemosynthetic Carbon Use and Environmental Trophic Structuring of Carbonate‐Associated Macrofauna at Southern California Methane Seeps

open access: yesMarine Ecology, Volume 47, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT Diverse invertebrate communities inhabiting carbonate rocks at methane seeps may rely on a mix of local chemosynthetic production and sinking photosynthetic organic matter, with relative importance shaped by environmental conditions. We investigate the contribution of chemosynthetic carbon to macrofaunal diets at six Southern California ...

Morphological and biomechanical adaptations of larval mandibles in Trichoptera (Insecta)

open access: yesPhysiological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, Page 85-114, March 2026.
Mandible morphology differs between predators and grazers: predators show pointed incisors, grazers sharp edges and setae. Mechanical properties depend on cuticle tanning, not elemental reinforcement. Functional mandible types reflect feeding strategies, with predators specialized for prey capture and grazers for scraping and collecting.

Consumption and digestion of animal food by rocky intertidal herbivores: an evaluation of digestive flexibility and omnivory in three grazing species Consumo y digestión de alimento animal por herbívoros del intermareal rocoso: evaluación de flexibilidad digestiva y omnivoría en tres especies de pastoreadores

open access: yesLatin American Journal of Aquatic Research, 2009
The ingestion of invertebrates by herbivores on rocky intertidal shores is traditionally considered a casual phenomenon. However, a recent study of 29 species in northern Chile shows that animal consumption is widespread, consistent, and important ...

Cryptofauna Associated With the Epilithic Algal Matrix on Subtropical Brazilian Reefs

open access: yesAustral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The epilithic algal matrix (EAM) plays a significant role in the benthic cover of reefs worldwide. In Brazil, the EAM accounts for a substantial proportion of the benthos, and its associated fauna contributes to the majority of the reef's metazoan biodiversity and is an important link into the trophic chain, connecting the production performed
