Understanding Biogeographic Patterns in Sepiolidae (Cephalopoda)
ABSTRACT The biogeography of the bobtail squid family Sepiolidae is reviewed. Species of the Sepiolinae subfamily are only found in coastal waters of the ‘Old World’, with a high degree of diversification in the Mediterranean Sea and the Coral Triangle in the Indo‐Pacific region.

Climatic rainfall regime shapes energy flow, trophic structure, and secondary production in streams
Abstract Changes in precipitation patterns linked to climate change have profound implications for the structuring and functioning of riverine ecosystems. This study investigates how rainfall influences secondary production by examining nine rivers across a sharp natural rainfall gradient over 3 years.

Abstract Climate change is accelerating the deoxygenation of aquatic ecosystems, so understanding its effects on biological processes is increasingly critical. An emerging method for inducing hypoxia during experimentation utilizes sodium sulfite (SSI) to scavenge oxygen; however, it remains unclear if hypoxia‐inducing concentrations of SSI are toxic ...

Two new endemic species of Portulaca (Portulacaceae) from the Brazilian Pampa grasslands
Portulaca L. is a monophyletic, cosmopolitan genus of succulent plants comprising ca 153 species, with particularly high diversity in xerophytic ecosystems in tropical and subtropical regions. Based on morphological evidence, we describe and illustrate two new species from the Brazilian Pampa, Portulaca guaritensis and Portulaca guenoa.
