Phylogeography and Contact Zones of the Common Grass Snake in Poland (Squamata: Natricidae: Natrix natrix)

Zoologica Scripta, Volume 55, Issue 2, Page 209-219, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Until now, the genetic identity of common grass snakes (Natrix natrix) in Poland remained poorly understood. This study presents the first comprehensive phylogeographic analysis for Poland using mitochondrial DNA sequences (cyt b and ND4 + tRNAs) and 13 nuclear microsatellite loci.

Sediment‐stressed reefs over the past 420 Myr

The Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 1, February 2026.
In order to fully elucidate the relationship between siliciclastic sedimentation and reef development, there needs to be a significant step change in how we record ancient and recent reefs. Only through the collection of constrained quantitative data, we can progress beyond the largely conjectural associations postulated for many ancient reefal systems.

Taking machine learning with a grain of sand: Sediment Analysis Neural‐network Data‐engine (SAND‐e) reveals sedimentological differences between turbid and clear‐water reefs

The Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 1, February 2026.
Using machine learning, researchers can count and crudely identify sand grains from coral reefs automatically. This will allow us to generate larger datasets to answer sedimentological questions. Abstract Sediment is an important facet of sand cay reefs as it is responsible for reef accretion and island formation, with shifts in the proportions of ...

Stage‐Specific Responses to Warming in Trojan Fir Across Early Life Stages: Germination, Seedling Survival, and Seedling Growth

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
We investigated the effects of temperature, cold stratification, and light on germination and early seedling growth in Abies nordmanniana subsp. equi‐trojani (Trojan fir), an endangered endemic tree from northwestern Anatolia (Türkiye). Our results show that while higher fixed and alternating temperatures enhance germination, they also lead to ...

Ephemeropteran and Trichopteran Assemblages Vary Across a Subtropical Rainforest Altitudinal Gradient: Useful Indicators for Climate Change

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
This figure provides the elevation distribution of Trichoptera and Ephemeroptera across the elevational gradient and clearly shows how specific morphospecies can be used as indicators. ABSTRACT The subtropical rainforests of eastern Australia are expected to be greatly affected by climate change, with several studies predicting an upward shift in ...
