Natural History of Dolomedes schauinslandi, a Range Restricted Fishing Spider From Hokoreroro | Rangatira | South East Island

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 1, March 2026.
Dolomedes schauinslandi Simon 1899 is a large fishing spiderspecies endemic to the Chatham Islands, New Zealand. Today, it only occurs on remote offshore islands, being extinct from most islands of the archipelago.

Genotype‐Dependent Transcriptome Divergence Associated With Variation at vgll3 in Juvenile Gilthead Seabream (Sparus aurata)

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 6, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Early developmental processes significantly influence growth and maturation patterns, aquaculture traits that are critical for physiological adaptation and productivity. The vestigial‐like family member 3 gene (vgll3) plays a key role in growth and maturation across diverse taxa, including mammals and teleost fishes.

Testing macroevolutionary predictions of the Grant‐Stebbins model in the origin of Aeschynanthus acuminatus

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 6, Page 3137-3148, March 2026.
Summary The Grant‐Stebbins model predicts that a plant species encountering different pollinators across its range may undergo local adaptation and, subsequently, ecological speciation. We tested whether this could explain the origin of Aeschynanthus acuminatus (Gesneriaceae), a species phylogenetically derived from sunbird specialist ancestors.

Ecological speciation in sympatric palms: 2. Pre- and post-zygotic isolation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We evaluated reproductive isolation in two species of palms (Howea) that have evolved sympatrically on Lord Howe Island (LHI, Australia). We estimated the strength of some pre- and post-zygotic mechanisms in maintaining current species boundaries.

A note on the flowers of Halleria lucida

open access: yesBothalia: African Biodiversity & Conservation, 1977
Studies of sunbirds  (Cinnyris spp.) feeding on the nectar of flowers of  Halleria lucida L. suggest that partial protandry may be operative in the breeding system of this cauliflorous tree.

Sex-specific timing of autumn migration in birds : the role of sexual size dimorphism, migration distance and differences in breeding investment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Multiple studies have investigated differential migration of sexes during spring migration, while such differences during autumn migration are poorly studied. We tested several functional hypotheses explaining differences in autumnmigration dates between

Pollination and plant reproduction in the Cerrado, the world's most biodiverse savanna

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 1, Page 74-105, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The Brazilian Cerrado is a continental‐wide biodiversity hotspot and the most species‐rich savanna ecosystem in the world. The main aspect characterising this biodiversity is that the landscape is arranged as an intricate mosaic of different plant formations, including grasslands, savannas, and forests, each harbouring distinct but ...
