Ecology and Diversity of Urban Drosophila Species Communities as Potential Indicators of Biodiversity Decline

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
We investigated urban Drosophila communities in Vienna using ~18,000 specimens collected with citizen scientists, identifying 13 species including two new records for Austria (D. mercatorum and D. virilis). Compared to surveys 30 years ago, species richness has declined by more than 50%, with formerly common species replaced by neobiotic taxa.

Taxonomic results of the Bryotrop expedition to Zaire and Rwanda : 12., Metzgeriaceae, Plagiochilaceae, Lejeuneaceae (the nonepiphyllous collections) [PDF]

, 1993
Vanden Berghen (1948) who himself described two new species (1951, 1953) and supplied a key for the Central African taxa (Vanden Berghen 1960). Kuwahara described Metzgeria agnewii from the Aberdare Mts. in Kenya (1973), established the classification of

Microsatellite‐Based Genetic Analysis of a Wild Alpine Bumblebee and the Environmental Drivers of Its Genetic Diversity

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
High genetic diversity was detected in 539 B. kashmirensis individuals from 36 populations in Qinghai Province using 15 SSR markers. STRUCTURE, UPGMA, and PCoA analyses revealed east–west genetic clustering of populations. Environmental factors such as latitude, longitude, solar radiation, and vapor pressure influence genetic diversity. ABSTRACT Bombus

A key to selected rockfishes (Sebastes spp.) based on mitochondrial DNA restriction fragment analysis [PDF]

, 2006
Larval and juvenile rockfishes (Sebastes spp.) are difficult to identify using morphological characters. We developed a key based on sizes of restriction endonuclease fragments of the NADH dehydrogenase-3 and -4 (ND3/ND4) and 12S and 16S ribosomal RNA ...

Comparative Plastome Analysis of Artocarpus Species in China: Insight Into Adaptive Evolution and Mutational Hotspot Regions

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
The initial comparative plastome analysis of 10 Artocarpus species in China lays the groundwork for regional evolutionary research. Investigated of inverted repeat (lR) boundary variations, particularly the incomplete duplication of the ycf1 gene, elucidating mechanisms underlying genomic divergence.

Succulent Euphorbia costatoalata sp. nov. (Euphorbiaceae) from southern India

Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 1, January 2026.
Euphorbia costatoalata sp. nov. is allied to Euphorbia tortilis but differs from the latter in having prominent ribbing and up to five wings; segments longer, thinner, usually not in a spiral; cymes fewer per axil; glands trapezoidal, humped convexly upwards; ovaries flattened with non‐connate styles; capsules concave on top; and seeds dark brown with ...

Inocybe alboaurantiaca (Inocybaceae), a new species from Asia

Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 1, January 2026.
A new Inocybe (Inocybaceae) species, Inocybe alboaurantiaca, is described and illustrated from Asia (Japan and Pakistan), based on morphological and phylogenetic analyses of the nrITS and nrLSU regions. Phylogenetically, the most closely related sequences belong to the current mainstream European concept of Inocybe fibrosa.

Optimizing Maternal Microbiome: Role in Improved Conception and Pregnancy Outcome

Reproductive Medicine and Biology, Volume 25, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
Maternal microbiome optimization: Minimized risk and simple corrective steps. ABSTRACT Purpose To evaluate the role of optimizing the maternal microbiome in improving pregnancy outcomes, focusing on preconception and early gestation, and to propose practical diagnostic and preventive strategies, particularly in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMIC ...

Seasonal Dynamics and Associated Risk Factors of Bovine Trypanosomosis and Its Vector in Selected Districts of Gamo and Gofa Zones, Southern Ethiopia

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 1, January 2026.
The median PCV of poor body‐conditioned animals is below 20 (anaemic) compared to corresponding body‐condition animals. Black‐ and red‐coloured animals are more significantly affected by trypanosomosis than white‐coloured animals. Multivariable logistic regression revealed more about contributory factors than univariable logistic regression.
