Interindividual Variation in Chronic Inflammation in Northern Lao People's Democratic Republic

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 190, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives In many rural regions of developing countries, increasing market access is reshaping local food systems. Traditional diets rooted in local agriculture are being replaced by market‐driven alternatives. It is suspected that this dietary transition will contribute to rising risks of non‐communicable diseases through increased chronic ...

Neighboring Gulf Killifish (Fundulus grandis) Populations Differ in Their Plastic and Genetic Responses to Salinity Fluctuations

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Coastal development can alter the salinity fluctuations experienced by tidal creek systems. Understanding how resident organisms, such as the Gulf killifish, respond to these changes is critical, as development along the coastline is projected to triple in the coming decades.

Spiders in the mosaic: How habitat heterogeneity and structure drive local spider diversity in a Mediterranean forest

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 4, Page 810-826, August 2026.
We assessed alpha‐ and beta‐diversity patterns of spiders across different forests and across vegetation layers (ground, shrub, low canopy) at local spatial scales across various Mediterranean forest types. Across forests, alpha‐diversity increased with habitat heterogeneity, which also drove beta‐diversity patterns across plots .

Single‐cell sequencing reveals potential novel insights into appendage‐patterning and joint‐development in a spider

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, Volume 255, Issue 7, Page 671-697, July 2026.
Abstract Background Jointed appendages represent one of the key innovations of arthropods, and thus understanding the development and evolution of these structures is important for the understanding of the evolutionary success of Arthropoda. In this paper, we analyze a cell cluster that was identified in a previous single‐cell sequencing (SCS ...

Feeding habits of the spider crab Libinia spinosa H. Milne Edwards, 1834 (Decapoda, Brachyura) in Ubatuba bay, São Paulo, Brazil

open access: yesBrazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2008
The main goal of this study was the identification of the items of the diet of the L. spinosa, based on the stomach contents analysis. The crabs were obtained from Ubatuba region north-eastern shore of São Paulo State.

Hunting Guild Mediates the Effects of Fecundity and Mortality on Sexual Size Dimorphism in Spiders

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
Female red‐legged golden orb‐weaver (Trichonephila inaurata madagascarensis) with a much smaller male visible near the tip of the female abdomen, southwest Madagascar. Orb‐web weavers are characterised by relatively sedentary females occupying aerial orb webs and highly mobile mate‐searching males.

Trapped honey bees reduce floral visitation on milkweed flowers

open access: yesEcology, Volume 107, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Trapped arthropods have been shown to benefit plants in several ways, but few studies have examined the potential costs of arthropod entanglement. Milkweeds (Asclepias spp.) have an unusual pollination system that requires relatively large packets of pollen (pollinia) to become attached to the appendages of insect pollinators and be pulled ...

Spider crabs of the Samadinia pulchra complex (Crustacea: Decapoda: Epialtidae)

open access: yesRecords of the Australian Museum, 2023
The spiny spider crab, Samadinia pulchra (Miers in Tizard, Moseley, Buchanan & Murray, 1885) (type locality: Bohol Sea, Philippines) has long been considered to be widespread in the western Pacific and Indian Ocean, with Anamathia livermorii Wood-Mason ...
