Brain Morphology and Quantitative Assessment of Sensory Brain Areas in Southern Bluefin Tuna, Thunnus maccoyii (Scombridae, Teleostei)

open access: yesJournal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 534, Issue 4, April 2026.
The absolute and relative volume of major sensory and integrative brain regions of the southern bluefin tuna Thunnus maccoyii are examined using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). A dominant cerebellum projects into the midbrain ventricular space, while the optic tectum represents a smaller proportion of total brain volume than previously estimated ...

Use of species’ responses to cryptic anthropogenic disturbances for monitoring biodiversity outcomes in tropical forests

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Measuring area‐based conservation outcomes in tropical forests is challenging due to cryptic human disturbances (e.g., hunting). As a result, comparative studies of management strategies providing quantitative outcomes remain scarce, especially in the Neotropics.

Effect of stocking density on growth, survival and condition factor in tropical gar (Atractosteus tropicus Gill, 1863) juveniles

open access: yesLatin American Journal of Aquatic Research, 2020
Tropical gar ( Atractosteus tropicus ) is currently exploited regionally as food and commercialized in the aquarium trade. Natural populations of A. tropicus may already be negatively affected by anthropogenic alteration of the areas in which it is distributed. However, it is necessary to deepen the knowledge for the optimization of its culture.

No Model Fits All: Dynamic Ensemble Species Distribution Model Reveals Seasonal Patterns of Essential Habitat Use by Ocean Giants in the Southwest Pacific

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Essential habitats are areas that support biological and ecological functions critical for species' survival. For highly mobile and elusive marine species, aggregations in these habitats provide rare opportunities to study their ecology and inform conservation.

Environmental risk factors for allergic rhinitis differ by income level: A Global Asthma Network survey

open access: yesPediatric Allergy and Immunology, Volume 37, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Background Estimating the prevalence and identifying risk factors for allergic rhinitis (AR) provides critical burden of disease data and offers opportunity to intervene in early‐life preventing morbidity. Methods We conducted a Global Asthma Network (GAN) Phase I cross‐sectional study in children (6–7 years) and adolescents (13–14 years ...

A Dangerous Prey Fish? Brachyspira‐Rich Gastrointestinal Microbiota in Pompano Dolphinfish From Neritic and Deep Waters of the South China Sea

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
This study reveals an unexpectedly simplified, Brachyspira‐dominated gastrointestinal microbiota in pompano dolphinfish from both neritic and deep‐sea habitats of the South China Sea. Environmental DNA and functional analyses suggest these fish may acquire potential pathogens in anthropogenically influenced coastal waters and transport them offshore ...

Coyote Range Expansion in the Human‐Modified Tropics of Mesoamerica

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
Coyotes have expanded their range into southeastern Mexico, Guatemala, and Belize, increasingly occupying human‐modified landscapes. This expansion is ongoing, with rising detection rates over time and records in both disturbed and forested environments, highlighting a paradox where anthropogenic change enables native carnivore expansion.

Evaluation of microencapsulated diets for tropical gar (Atractosteus tropicus) larviculture

open access: yes, 2018
Four microencapsulated diets were evaluated with respect to the growth and survival of tropical gar Atractosteus tropicus larvae. The treatments consisted of four experimental diets and one control diet 1) fish meal, 2) a combination of pork and poultry meals, 3) Nannochloropsis gaditana meal, 4) enzyme preparation and the control treatment 5) Artemia ...

Evaluation of carbohydrate/lipid ratios on growth and metabolic response in tropical gar (Atractosteus tropicus) juvenile

open access: yesAquaculture Research, 2019
Five experimental diets with different carbohydrates/lipid ratio (CHO:L, 0.75, 1.28, 2.10, 2.52, 4.63) were formulated. Fish were randomly assigned by triplicate (10 fish per tank, 0.50 ± 0.01 g). Growth was registered every 15 days until end of the experiment (45 days).
