Shifts in type 2 vomeronasal receptor expression during postnatal development in the lungfish olfactory organ

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 978-986, October 2026.
Lungfish possess a lamellar OE and a primitive VNO called as a recess epithelium (RecE). Among the lungfish V2Rs expressed in both the lamellar OE and the RecE in small individuals, some became restricted to the RecE in large individuals. These results suggest functional separation between the lamellar OE and the RecE is still incomplete in juveniles ...

Vulnerability and behavioral responses of South Chinese anuran tadpoles to native dragonfly (Pantala flavescens) naiads and introduced western mosquitofish (Gambusia affinis)

Journal of Freshwater Ecology, 2017
Anti-predator behavior is an important fitness component in most animals. Alien predator species are a serious threat to amphibian populations. We studied the vulnerability and behavioral defenses of tadpoles of six Chinese anurans in response to the ...

Outcrop and subsurface characterisation of a mixed tidal and wave‐influenced coastline (Triassic Red Beds, SE Spain)

Sedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 6, Page 2381-2416, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Paralic depositional systems are complex and heterogeneous sedimentary environments, presenting challenges for predicting reservoir architecture and connectivity. Their stratigraphic and facies variability arises from the dynamic interplay between fluvial, tidal and wave processes, and their sensitivity to sea‐level fluctuations, sediment ...

Spatio‐Temporal Assessment of Fish Biodiversity in High‐Density Cascade Dam Rivers Using Environmental DNA Metabarcoding

Biological Diversity, Volume 3, Issue 3, Page 158-168, September 2026.
This study employed eDNA technology for biodiversity surveys and conducted high‐density spatiotemporal eDNA sampling to evaluate ecosystem‐scale patterns across temporal, spatial, and habitat dimensions. We identified 97 fish species from 12 orders, 29 families, and 71 genera using eDNA technology. Spatially, fish diversity indices were correlated with

Morphometrics and ratio of body proportionality of tadpoles of Rhinella icterica (Anura, Bufonidae) at different developmental stages

Brazilian Journal of Biology
The plasticity of the anurans' development is probably related to their great ecological and geographic diversity. Therefore, the understanding of environmental occupation by tadpoles is related to their morphological peculiarities.

Pesticide‐Free Rice Paddies Promote Diverse and Distinct Aquatic Invertebrate Communities in Cool‐Temperate Agroecosystems

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
Freshwater wetlands are disappearing across agricultural landscapes, prompting interest in pesticide‐free rice paddies as multifunctional habitats. Across 2 years, rice paddies supported higher local macroinvertebrate density and richness than nearby natural wetlands, although wetlands maintained greater regional diversity and more heterogeneous ...

Estimating Area of Occupancy From Incomplete Occurrence Records: Reproducible Workflow Illustrated on a Comprehensive Dataset of Georgian Snakes

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
The workflow is presented that helps to optimize grid‐cell size by breakpoint search and to estimate the area of occupancy (AOO) more precisely, if the occurrence data are incomplete. The model was validated on 13 colubrid snakes found in Georgia. The scripts in R and full statistical workflow are provided in the paper and the Supporting Information ...

Effects of Salinity and Temperature on Survival, Growth, and Food Intake of Ramshorn Snail (Helisoma anceps)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
This study examines how salinity and temperature affect the survival, growth, and food intake of the freshwater snail Helisoma anceps. Snails exposed to salinities of 10 ppt and above died within 48 h, while growth and food intake decreased as salinity increased. The results provide information on the environmental limits of H. anceps and its use under
