A Museum‐Curated, Voucher‐Backed 12S Barcode Reference Library for Fishes of the Ecuadorian Amazon

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 8, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding is an emerging method that promises to expedite and improve biodiversity surveys by identifying species from the genetic material they shed into the environment. eDNA methods offer many advantages over conventional specimen‐based surveys, but their effectiveness hinges on reference libraries, which for ...

Arboreal and Terrestrial Frugivore Vertebrate Assemblage Diversity and Composition Vary With Disturbance Histories in Guianan Forests

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
This study examined the impact of human disturbances on arboreal and terrestrial fruit‐consuming vertebrate assemblages across three tropical forest sites in French Guiana. While species richness remained consistent across sites, results revealed significant variations in visitation rates and a shift in dominant species.

Evaluating the use of taxonomy in the IUCN Red List

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 5, October 2026.
Abstract Taxonomy defines the units that conservationists strive to preserve for future generations. However, the discovery of new species and the taxonomic revision of existing species affect conservation efforts. Despite the importance of taxonomy for a species’ conservation, there is currently no overview of how those leading species extinction risk

Disinformation: A Taxonomy

IEEE Security & Privacy Magazine, 2011
This article outlines steps towards a disinformation theory, a simplified and generalized notion of communication that is intended to be, in some way, misleading or deceptive. The model is derived from Shannon's communications model, but with an intentional “noise source” and an unintended receiver. Alterations of an image containing a message are used

Taxonomy of the Caliciviruses [PDF]

The Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2000
The International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) has recently approved several proposals submitted by the present Caliciviridae Study Group. These proposals include the division of the family into 4 new genera designated Lagovirus, Vesivirus, "Norwalk-like viruses (NLVs), and "Sapporo-like viruses (SLVs); the latter 2 genera were assigned ...

Global meta‐analysis reveals urban‐associated behavioural differences among wild populations

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 9, Page 1539-1557, September 2026.
Urbanization drives rapid phenotypic change, yet broad patterns of behavioural responses remain unclear. Using a global phylogenetic meta‐analysis, we show urban populations exhibit increased boldness, aggression, exploration and activity—especially in birds—highlighting consistent behavioural shifts and revealing major taxonomic gaps that limit our ...

A Comprehensive Taxonomy of Rules for Nuanced Analysis of Governance Systems

Policy Studies Journal, Volume 54, Issue 3, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding how institutions shape collective action requires analytical tools that capture the complexity of governance arrangements. Ostrom's typology of rules provides a foundational framework for examining institutional configurations, yet limited specificity in rule types reduces its effectiveness in comparative analysis.

Integrative taxonomy, or iterative taxonomy?

Systematic Entomology, 2010
The recently introduced term ‘integrative taxonomy’ refers to taxonomy that integrates all available data sources to frame species limits. We survey current taxonomic methods available to delimit species that integrate a variety of data, including molecular and morphological characters.

Interpreting a Legacy Fossil Assemblage Excavated From Waribruk (New Guinea II Cave), GunaiKurnai Aboriginal Country, Snowy River National Park, Southeastern Australia

Archaeology in Oceania, Volume 61, Issue 2, Page 253-276, July 2026.
ABSTRACT In this paper we report on faunal remains recovered from a legacy archaeological excavation undertaken in the rockshelter entrance of Waribruk (New Guinea II Cave), a GunaiKurnai site located on the west bank of the Snowy River, East Gippsland, southeastern Australia.
