Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Endangered fish species, such as Delta smelt (Hypomesus transpacificus), in the San Francisco Estuary are threatened by a multitude of anthropogenic stressors. Tidal wetland restoration can partially mitigate these stressors by increasing food availability of aquatic invertebrate prey, but the efficacy of restoration remains ...

Isopod holobionts as promising models for lignocellulose degradation
Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2020 Background Isopods have colonized all environments, partly thanks to their ability to decompose the organic matter. Their enzymatic repertoire, as well as the one of their associated microbiota, has contributed to their colonization success.

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 10, October 2026.Elucidating the determinants of parasite infection levels of individuals within a population is a basic but important step for understanding the roles of parasites in natural systems. Among intraspecific studies on vertebrate hosts and metazoan parasites, host body size (length/mass) is probably the most frequently reported factor determining parasite ...

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 ...

Reproductive ecology of terrestrial isopods (Crustacea: Oniscidea)
, 2009 Terrestrial isopods (Crustacea: Oniscidea) are important detritivores in many ecosystems. Because reproductive success and population dynamics of the Oniscidea depend on diverse biotic and abiotic environmental factors, the effects of global climate ...

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.Abstract High densities of burrowing talitrid amphipods inhabit beaches around the world. This includes California, where densities of more than 1,000 individuals m−2 are regularly recorded. Here, we provide evidence of Megalorchestia spp. excavating up to 10.38 kg dry sand m−2 d−1 on a beach in southern California, one of the highest mounding rates ...

“Protracheoniscus vasileradui” – n. sp. (Crustacea, Isopoda, Crinochaeta) in the Romanian fauna
Studia Universitatis Babeș-Bolyai. Biologia, 2018 We describe the terrestrial isopod species Protracheoniscus vasileradui n. sp. collected from the deciduous forest in the Liuborajdea Valley, Iron Gates (Porţile de Fier) area. We named it Protracheoniscus vasileradui n.sp., in the memory of Prof. V. Gh.

Urbanization Effects on the Community Structure of Saproxylic Arthropods in Warm‐Temperate Japan
Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 5, September 2026.This study examined saproxylic arthropod communities in various landscapes, ranging from large to fragmented urban forests, and compared the structure and composition of these communities. The results showed that communities could be classified into three types based on species composition and that arthropod community types were correlated with forest ...
