Adaptation to warm environments with a fast pace of life in a marine predatory snail

Ecological Monographs, Volume 96, Issue 2, May 2026.
Abstract Understanding how latitudinal temperature variation shapes local adaptation of life‐history strategies is crucial for predicting future responses to warming. Contrasting predictive frameworks explain how growth and other life‐history traits may respond to differing selective pressures across latitude. However, these frameworks have rarely been

A New Species of Silverside from the Late Miocene of NW Iran [PDF]

Acta Palaeontologica Polonica, 2011
The genus Atherina (Atheriniformes, Teleostei) includes five extant brackish and marine species that inhabit the eastern Atlantic, Mediterranean Sea, Black Sea, and Caspian Sea. Several fossil species are known from the Mediterranean and Paratethyan basins. Here we describe a new fossil species, Atherina atropatiensis sp.

Artificial oyster reefs can facilitate the recovery of lost ecosystem function in fragmented seagrass habitat

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Seagrasses suffer population decline when environmental stress exceeds physiological tolerance. In such instances, seagrass restoration can be successful if stressors are alleviated; however, many stressors cannot be addressed at a local scale. As such, seagrass restoration efforts often fail. In this study, we tested whether artificial oyster

Effect of ageing time in vacuum package on veal longissimus dorsi and biceps femoris physical and sensory traits

Italian Journal of Food Science, 2015
Study evaluated the effects of vacuum ageing (2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16 days) on veal loin (longissimus dorsi; LD) and silverside (biceps femoris; BF) physical and sensory characteristics. Ageing did not affect cooking loss, increased LD pH and L*, a* and b*

Correctional officers and drug smuggling: Boundary work, horizontal surveillance, and cultural responses to drug entry

Criminology, Volume 64, Issue 2, Page 313-334, May 2026.
Abstract Drug entry into prisons represents a serious issue for both incarcerated people and prison staff. Although substances enter prisons in many ways, staff drug smuggling represents a consistent problem facing correctional institutions globally. We draw on 131 interviews with correctional officers (COs) working in four Western Canadian prisons to ...

Anticholinesterase effect of eserine (physostigmine) in fish and crustacean species

Brazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2001
The kinetic characteristic (Km) of cholinesterase from the crab Chasmagnathus granulata, the shrimp Farfantepenaeus paulensis and the fish Odontesthes bonaeriensis were compared and correlated with the anticholinesterasic effect of eserine (physostigmine)

Refining a molecular tool kit to capture tropicalization in Mediterranean marine protected areas

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.
We assess complementarity and trade‐offs between visual census and eDNA metabarcoding for monitoring fish community changes in MPAs. Abstract Tropicalization, the process by which tropical species expand their ranges poleward due to global ocean warming, is a prominent threat to Mediterranean marine ecosystems, challenging their effective management ...

Dieta, selectividad y solapamiento trófico entre las tallas del pez blanco Menidia humboldtiana (Atheriniformes: Atherinopsidae) en el embalse Tiacaque, México Diet, selectivity and trophic overlap between the sizes of Silverside Menidia humboldtiana (Atheriniformes: Atherinopsidae) in the reservoir Tiacaque, Mexico

Revista de Biología Tropical, 2013
Menidia humboldtiana es una especie nativa muy apreciada por su delicado sabor. Se determinó el espectro trófico, selectividad y solapamiento trófico de ésta, durante 1995 (épocas del año), se obtuvieron muestras de zooplancton e identificaron a nivel ...
