Invasive giant river prawns as opportunistic, generalist predators in the Amazon Delta: Insights from metabarcoding

Ecosphere, Volume 16, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract Invasive species alter habitats and biological communities. The giant river prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii (de Man 1879) was introduced to Brazil for aquaculture, and invasive populations have established in the Amazon Delta region where they are believed to pose a risk to the native aquatic fauna.

StrataSeq: A Workflow for Rapid Development of Molecular Databases for Hard‐To‐Identify Species

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
Biodiversity loss calls for better monitoring of small, species‐rich taxa, such as soil invertebrates, but traditional methods are limited due to complex morphology and lack of expertise. DNA‐based approaches offer a solution, but their effectiveness depends on incomplete molecular reference databases.

Long term effect of fire, flood and grazing on invertebrates in Australia’s arid zone: Collembola and Formicidae

Soil Organisms, 2023
An extensive fire followed almost immediately by a large scale flood occurred in the semi-arid/arid Olary Creek area in southwest New South Wales. In order to monitor the short and long term effect of these extreme events on vegetation, replicate paired

The Effect of Long‐Term Underlying Management on Soil Faunal Communities of a Newly Established Herbal Ley

Soil Use and Management, Volume 41, Issue 4, October‐December 2025.
ABSTRACT Soil ecosystems support a diverse range of life essential for a functioning soil. However, agricultural establishment methods like tillage intensity have been shown to directly affect soil fauna populations. Soil fauna diversity and abundance were investigated following a 10‐year experiment testing different crop establishment systems in an ...

Using fecal DNA metabarcoding to investigate the animal diet of black rails, yellow rails, and soras

Wildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 49, Issue 3, September 2025.
We used fecal DNA metabarcoding to investigate the diet of yellow rails, Eastern black rails, and sora during the non‐breeding season. Arthropods, particularly ants, were prevalent in their diets, suggesting possible interactions with invasive red imported fire ants.

Positive Effects of Inter‐Row Vegetation on Soil Fauna and Organic Matter Decomposition in Mediterranean Vineyards

Soil Use and Management, Volume 41, Issue 3, July‐September 2025.
ABSTRACT Soil is a key compartment providing important ecosystem services for sustainable agriculture. Our study examined the effects of three inter‐row vegetation types on soil biological activity, mesofauna, and organic matter decomposition in 15 Mediterranean vineyards of South‐eastern France. The three vegetation types included inter‐rows sown with
