Convergent Evolutionary Dead-End and Breakdown of Hard Chorion in Parental-Egg-Care Fish Reproductive Strategies. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Fish exhibit a diverse array of reproductive strategies adapted to various ecological niches. Parental egg‐care, including live‐bearing, mouth‐brooding, and male egg protection by brood pouches, represents an effective strategy for ensuring larval survival and has emerged independently in multiple lineages.

The Influence of Habitat Heterogeneity and Human Disturbance on Trophic Interactions of <i>Sebastiscus marmoratus</i> and <i>Scorpaenopsis cirrosa</i> in Wanshan Archipelago. [PDF]
This study investigates how habitat heterogeneity and human activity shape trophic interactions between two scorpionfish species (Sebastiscus marmoratus and Scorpaenopsis cirrosa) in China's Wanshan Archipelago. Stable isotope analysis revealed regional shifts in their diets (e.g., annelids to mollusks) and broader niche use by S.

The Metapopulation Bridge to Macroevolutionary Speciation Rates: A Conceptual Framework and Empirical Test. [PDF]
Can metapopulation persistence predict speciation rates? Here, we provide a new framework and apply it to 40 years of fish metacommunity data to test this hypothesized bridge between micro‐ and macroevolution. ABSTRACT Whether large‐scale variation in lineage diversification rates can be predicted by species properties at the population level is a key ...
