True dung beetles are a speciose group of ecosystem engineers that play key roles as detritivores in natural and agricultural landscapes. Scarabaeine beetles show strong thermal plasticity and there is increasing evidence of rapid evolutionary divergence in response to temperature across ecological and evolutionary timescales, with likely consequences ...

Eco‐Evolutionary Dynamics of Pathogen Epidemic Timing in a Seasonal Environment
How are seasonal patterns of pathogen epidemics shaped by evolution? Using numerical and analytical approaches, we investigate the evolution of pathogen seasonal preferences. Our analysis identifies two selective forces driving the diversification of pathogen seasonality: seasonal priority effect and stabilising selection.

ABSTRACT Aim Investigate patterns of population genetic structure in Southwestern Atlantic marine fishes and evaluate how geographic range, habitat diversity, and evolutionary history shape population connectivity. Location Southwestern Atlantic, including the Caribbean, Brazilian coast, and Patagonian region, between 0°59′ N and 40°16′ S.

ABSTRACT Aim To characterise the evolution of climatic niches during the diversification of the Phyllotis darwini species group, in order to assess the extent to which divergences involved in radiation were associated with patterns of conservatism or divergence of climatic niches, and whether the differentiation found among climatic niches correlated ...

ABSTRACT Aim We evaluate the phylogenetic relationships and taxonomic validity of Atlantic species of Labrisomus, identifying the lineages currently assigned to L. nuchipinnis, and assessing the role of biogeographic barriers in shaping the evolutionary history and geographic distribution of the genus. Location Atlantic Ocean.

ABSTRACT Aim Island archipelagos and montane regions of East and Southeast Asia represent some of the world's most biodiverse yet poorly understood biogeographic systems. Whether regional diversity accumulates primarily through in situ speciation, dispersal‐mediated range shifts, or some combination of these processes remains unclear.

Hybridization and genome evolution I: The role of contingency during hybrid speciation
Homoploid hybrid speciation (HHS) involves the recombination of two differentiated genomes into a novel, functional one without a change in chromosome number. Theoretically, there are numerous ways for two parental genomes to recombine. Hence, chance may
