Determination of optimal prey for rearing tropical gar Atractosteus tropicus (Lepisosteiformes: Lepisosteidae)

open access: yesRevista de Biología Tropical, 2018
Larval feeding studies of both ornamental and consumable fish species are important for formulating successful management, and culture strategies for conservation purposes. In the present study, we evaluated prey selectivity for the tropical gar Atractosteus tropicus in the larval stage (first 8 weeks) using the zooplankton Artemia fransiscana, Daphnia

DEET‐cyclodextrin inclusion complexes for mosquito and tick repellency: Extended repellency time and no zebrafish embryotoxicity

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Hydroxypropyl‐β‐cyclodextrin (HPβCD)–N,N‐diethyl‐meta‐toluamide (DEET) complex extended tick repellency to 168 h. Full protection against Aedes aegypti for 7 h with HPβCD‐DEET. HPβCD reduced DEET release and skin retention significantly. No embryotoxicity observed below 325 mg L−1 in zebrafish model.

Impacts of Ocean Acidification on Reproduction and Early Life Development in Marine Teleost Fish—A Synthesis

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ocean acidification (OA) remains a major and underexplored threat to marine fishes, particularly regarding reproductive physiology and early life stages (ELS). Although research over the past 15 years has documented diverse OA effects, substantial knowledge gaps persist.

First record of young‐of‐the‐year smooth hammerhead (Sphyrna zygaena) in coastal waters of Galicia, northwest Spain

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The smooth hammerhead (Sphyrna zygaena) is typically considered an oceanic species and is only rarely observed in the cooler coastal waters of the northeastern Atlantic. On 20 December 2024, a juvenile S. zyganea was captured at 25 m depth in the inner Ría de Pontevedra (Rías Baixas, northwest Spain).

Subsistence hunting shapes the spatial variation of jaguar densities in community‐managed forests

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, EarlyView.
Jaguars and people can coexist in community‐managed forests, but distance matters. In Guatemala's Maya Biosphere Reserve, jaguar numbers increased markedly in areas harder to reach on foot, yet jaguars were still found near communities, showing that responsibly managed forests can support jaguar populations while allowing people to maintain traditional

Abundant interactions and feedbacks between aquatic deoxygenation and the other planetary boundaries suggest “unsafe” levels of oxygen loss with far‐reaching impacts

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Oxygen is critical for nearly all life on Earth, including aquatic species that breathe dissolved oxygen in both freshwater and marine systems. The rapid, global, and anthropogenic loss of dissolved oxygen known as “aquatic deoxygenation” threatens life in these environments, the human communities that depend on them, and Earth system ...

Effect of Home‐Based Multiple Micronutrient Powder Fortification on Haemoglobin Levels in Infants in Nampula, Mozambique: A Pragmatic Clinical Trial

open access: yesMaternal &Child Nutrition, Volume 22, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT To conduct a pragmatic clinical trial with multiple micronutrient powders (MNPs) for anaemia prevention during the first year of life in primary care in Nampula, Mozambique. A total of 275 infants, aged 6–8 months, were randomly assigned to intervention (IG, n = 145) and control (CG, n = 130) groups. The IG received 90 sachets of MNP for daily

Early evolutionary history of the seed

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1511-1553, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The seed is an essential stage in the life history of gymnospermous and angiospermous plants, facilitating both their survival and dispersal. We reappraise knowledge of the evolutionary history of the gymnospermous seed, from its origin in the late Devonian through to the well‐known end‐Permian extinctions – an interval encompassing the ...
