Critical knowledge gaps in the conservation and restoration of cold‐water corals

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Critical knowledge gaps hamper effective conservation of threatened cold‐water coral (CWC) ecosystems, facing cumulative anthropogenic and climate pressures. This review provides a strategic roadmap for urgent, informed intervention.

Rearing duration influences survival rate in the Post‐Larval Capture, Culture and Release of a coral reef fish

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Juvenile coral reef fish face an initial predation‐induced mortality bottleneck with mortality exceeding 60% within 48 hours of settlement. This intense predation, exacerbated by anthropogenic stressors, limits recruitment and contributes to global declines of reef fish populations. Post‐Larval Capture, Culture, and Release (PCCR),

LOS HIDROZOOS (CNIDARIA, HYDROZOA) DE LA CAYERÍA SUR DEL GOLFO DE BATABANÓ, CUBA

open access: yesRevista Ciencias Marinas y Costeras, 2011
Hidrozoos de aguas poco profundas fueron recolectados en 17 estaciones, en julio del 2004. Las estaciones se localizaron en manglares, pastos marinos y arrecifes coralinos.

Evaluating the possible role of bottom currents and internal waves in shaping seafloor morphology in a mesophotic reef

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mesophotic reefs are located in low light conditions which, depending on the region, are usually found in water depths greater than ~30 m. They are less affected by ocean warming than reefs found in shallower water depths and thus might become increasingly important for the sustainability of marine biodiversity.

Cross‐modal predictive oculomotor control: visually acquired prediction transfers to vestibular‐driven eye movements

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic illustrating that visually driven optokinetic responses (OKR) and vestibularly driven vestibulo‐ocular reflexes (VOR) share a common timing mechanism composed of the cerebellum and the velocity storage mechanism (VSM). Predictive OKR (pOKR), characterized by predictive deceleration (brown arrow)—a gradual slowing of eye

Behaviour of Temperate Reef Fish Species Around Oyster Aquaculture Farms and Natural Rock Reefs

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Cultivation of eastern oysters using aquaculture gear increases habitat for temperate reef fish. Cunner (Tautogolabrus adspersus), scup (Stenotomus chrysops) and tautog (Tautoga onitis) inhabit a variety of complex natural and manmade habitats, including oyster aquaculture cage farms.

Serotonergic Neuromodulation of Natural Products Isoreserpine and Isoreserpiline in Adult Zebrafish: An in Silico and In Vivo Investigation

open access: yesChemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Anxiety is a multidimensional behavioral disorder widely studied in neuroscience due to the involvement of specific neural circuits. Although benzodiazepines are commonly used, their side effects drive the search for new therapeutic alternatives.

Rapid Gamete Maturation and Social Modulation Shape Reproductive Dynamics in a Brood Parasitic Catfish

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
Obligatory brood parasitism in the Lake Tanganyika cuckoo catfish requires rapid reproductive readiness to exploit unpredictable host spawning. Our experiments showed that males are almost continuously ready to reproduce, while females ovulate about once a week, with social interactions enhancing gamete maturation in both sexes.

Bacterial Communities Associated With Crustose Coralline Algae Are Host‐Specific

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 1, February 2026.
Fifteen Indo‐Pacific crustose coralline algae (CCA) species surface microbial communities were characterised with 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing and are distinct. The CCA surface microbiome primarily differentiate by algal host species, but core bacterial communities additionally correlated to host phylogeny.

Properties and Limitations of eDNA Substrates for Terrestrial Animal Monitoring

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Environmental DNA (eDNA) constitutes a valuable tool for monitoring terrestrial animal diversity, but outcomes are affected by multiple factors. Among these factors, the choice of sampling substrate and method is especially important and must be aligned with research objectives.
