Urban–Wild Interface Diversity: A Comprehensive Checklist of Herpetofauna of Guayaquil, Ecuador

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Amphibians and reptiles in Guayaquil comprise multiple taxonomic orders and occur across conservation areas, forest remnants, and urban parks, including several endemic species and numerous taxa with type localities in the city.

Graman Revisited Once Again: A Reanalysis of the Late Holocene Legacy Faunal Assemblage From GB4 Rockshelter, New South Wales

Archaeology in Oceania, Volume 61, Issue 1, Page 199-220, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The archaeological site Graman B4 provided one of the first records of substantial dietary change in ancient Australian Aboriginal society. Initial examination of the faunal remains from this site suggested that Late Holocene hunters reduced their focus on high‐ranked kangaroos to increasingly rely on arboreal possums; and that these ...

Beyond Species Diversity: Functional Approaches Reveal Consistent Fauna Community Responses to Exotic Grass Invasion in Arid Lands

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
To assess whether the impacts of exotic plant invasion can be generalised across taxa, we developed a conceptual framework predicting faunal responses to grass invasion in open, arid ecosystems and tested our predictions using data on birds, reptiles and ants from sites invaded by buffel grass (Cenchrus ciliaris) and paired uninvaded sites.

Cold‐blooded commerce: Characterizing and predicting trade in Australian squamates

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 4, April 2026.
Despite a national ban on native wildlife exports, Australian reptile species continue to appear in international trade. Using boosted regression trees, we found that large body sizes and taxonomic family, rather than color or patterning, best predicted trade presence. We identified 59 species likely to be targeted in the future, providing key insights
