Prey group cohesion mediates the outcome of predator–prey interactions under artificial lighting

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 9, Page 2818-2829, September 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The highest rates of piscivorous predation in the field have been recorded during crepuscular light levels associated with sunrise and sunset or artificial lighting at night (ALAN).

Re-description of the larval external morphology of two species of the Leptodactylus fuscus group (Anura, Leptodactylidae)

Phyllomedusa: Journal of Herpetology, 2005
The larvae of Leptodactylus gracilis (D'Orbigny y Bibron, 1840) and L. mystacinus Bumeister, 1861 are re-described and compared with previous descriptions noting intraspecific variation in oral disc characteristics (arrangement of papillae and rows of ...

A Novel Transposon Tn7709 Harbors Multidrug Resistance Genes in a Pathogenic Aeromonas media Strain QST31

Microorganisms
Pathogenic Aeromonas spp. are the etiological agents of Motile Aeromonas Septicemia (MAS). This study aimed to identify the pathogen of diseased tadpoles (Quasipaa spinosa) and the antibiotic-resistance characteristics of this bacterium.

Pond Edge Vegetation Influences Movement and Spatial Ecology in the Monkey Leaf Frog (Phyllomedusa iheringii Boulenger, 1885)

Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 5, September 2026.
Tracking Phyllomedusa iheringii across breeding ponds: Individual photo‐identification over three reproductive seasons (2018–2021) in 12 permanent ponds revealed movements among all ponds, demonstrating connectivity through migration at the study's spatial scale.

Cervical Small Cell Neuroendocrine Carcinoma Initially Detected on Cytology: Diagnostic Pitfalls and Clues

Cytopathology, Volume 37, Issue 5, Page 555-559, September 2026.
This case describes the initial detection of cervical small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma on conventional endometrial and cervicovaginal liquid‐based cytology. Given its rarity and high aggressiveness, early recognition and rapid, intensive treatment are crucial for improving patient outcomes.

Activity of Sphaerotheca breviceps tadpoles in response to chemical cues of the predaceous tadpoles Hoplobatrachus tigerinus

, 2007
Tadpoles of Sphaerotheca breviceps raised in the laboratory from the egg stage, and hence lacking prior experience of a predator or its odors, were tested to examine their responses to a predator's (tadpoles of Hoplobatrachus tigerinus) water-borne ...

Shape Evolution in Two Acts: Morphological Diversity of Larval and Adult Neoaustraranan Frogs

Animals
Phenotypic traits can evolve independently at different stages of ontogeny, optimizing adaptation to distinct ecological contexts and increasing morphological diversity in species with complex life cycles.

Antipredatory Strategies of Anurans: An Updated Conceptual Review

Ethology, Volume 132, Issue 9, Page 662-708, September 2026.
To unravel the evolutionary dynamics of predator–prey interactions, we propose an updated, three‐tiered classification of anuran antipredatory strategies. By mapping non‐behavioral, individual, and group defenses across five functional phases, this integrative framework introduces the concept of synergetic coupling.

Bayesian Inference for Multivariate Monotone Densities

Scandinavian Journal of Statistics, Volume 53, Issue 3, Page 1206-1229, September 2026.
ABSTRACT We consider a nonparametric Bayesian approach to estimation and testing for a multivariate monotone density. Instead of following the conventional Bayesian approach of imposing a prior that satisfies the monotonicity restriction, we place a prior on the step heights via binning and a Dirichlet distribution. The resulting posterior distribution
