Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 4, Page 715-728, August 2026.Species richness declined along cave microclimatic gradient, while diversity increased with habitat heterogeneity, highlighting distinct roles of abiotic conditions and structural complexity in shaping arthropod communities. Functional traits shifted along the microclimatic gradient, with larger‐bodied and more eye‐regressed arthropods dominating under

Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 2, May 2026.ABSTRACT This study expands the known distribution of the nonnative millipede Prosopodesmus jacobsoni in Brazil and reports its presence in cave environments for the first time in the country. Based on recently collected material and historical records, the species is shown to maintain stable populations in subterranean systems in the states of ...

Moving in the Dark: Enlightening the Spatial Population Ecology of European Cave Salamanders
Population Ecology, Volume 68, Issue 1, January 2026.We assessed individual interactions, movement ecology and activity patterns of a subterranean population of Speleomantes strinatii, applying spatial capture–recapture modeling to a photographic dataset of 104 individuals. ABSTRACT Space use and movement are fundamental aspects of organisms' ecology, mirroring individual fitness, behavior, and life ...

Complete mitochondrial genome of a troglophile Cydnidae (Hemiptera)
Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2019 The complete mitochondrial genome of a specimen of Cydnidae was shotgun sequenced and each partition was characterized. This genome, with 15,289 bp in length, has all of the 37 genes commonly found in metazoan mitochondrial genomes: two for ribosomal ...

African Journal of Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 8, December 2025.ABSTRACT Understanding patterns of biodiversity distribution is fundamental for ecology, biogeography, and conservation. However, persistent challenges arise from the inaccessibility of many regions and habitats. Subterranean environments, in particular, host highly distinctive and specialised faunal assemblages, yet their investigation is hindered by ...

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 3, Page 686-698, March 2025.ABSTRACT Aim Amphibians are particularly sensitive to rapid climatic shifts, due to their eco‐physiology, life history traits and high frequency of narrowly distributed species. The genus Speleomantes encompasses the only extant Western Palearctic plethodontids, with three species occurring in peninsular Italy and the remaining five endemic to Sardinia
