Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.This study assembled and characterized the complete chloroplast genome of Caltha scaposa, revealing it has the shortest inverted repeat regions among examined Anemoneae taxa and identifying highly variable markers for future phylogenetic work. Phylogenomic analysis of 40 plastomes robustly resolves C.

Anemonefish use sialic acid metabolism as Trojan horse to avoid giant sea anemone stinging
BMC BiologyBackground Anemonefish association with sea anemones is a prime example of mutualistic symbiosis. These fish live inside the sea anemone, benefitting from the protection of its toxic nematocysts, and in return, protect the anemone from its own predators.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.This study, through a large‐scale survey, reveals a close relationship between plateau pika habitat use preferences and geomorphic and soil characteristics. The findings indicate that pikas prefer flat, sun‐facing terrain near water sources, as well as specific ranges of soil depth, organic matter, and moisture.

Synthesis and Hypoglycemic Effect of Insulin from the Venom of Sea Anemone Exaiptasia diaphana
Marine DrugsSea anemone venom, abundant in protein and peptide toxins, serves primarily for predatory defense and competition. This study delves into the insulin-like peptides (ILPs) present in sea anemones, particularly focusing on their role in potentially ...

Fluorescence of Sea Anemones [PDF]
Nature, 1927 I NOTICED recently, upon the rocks in Torbay, a number of sea anemones the tentacles of which appeared to fluoresce in sunlight. The effect is limited to the tentacles, for they appear to have a pinkish-brown colour by transmitted light, which changes to vivid green when viewed by light reflected from their surface.

Biogeography of intertidal invertebrates is influenced by latitude along the west coast of Australia
Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 6, June 2026.Along the west coast of Australia, intertidal rock platforms support high invertebrate diversities that provide vital ecosystem services, yet patterns in diversity are not well understood. Here, we document and examine the invertebrate assemblages on intertidal rock platforms in Western Australia and delineate ecoregions according to assemblage ...

Reef fish assemblages impacted by sponges overgrowing corals
Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 6, June 2026.Abstract Numerous stressors are driving long‐term declines in coral cover on coral reefs, significantly impacting reef fish biodiversity and community structure. The benthic space made available by declining coral cover is often occupied by increases in other organisms, including macroalgae, encrusting ascidians, and sponges.

Marine invertebrates and fishes exhibit inconsistent body size responses to ocean acidification
Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 6, June 2026.Abstract Body size is a fundamental characteristic of all living organisms that determines physiological functions and life‐history traits. Ecological theory predicts that ocean acidification can cause body size reductions, confirmed by several studies reporting miniaturization in ectotherms.
