Development and Validation of an Environmental DNA Workflow to Monitor Mosquito Populations

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 5, September‐October 2026.
We designed a workflow for detecting mosquito eDNA in water. We validated the method with a lab experiment and occupancy‐detection modeling framework. We then tested the method in the field, validating it by parallel morphological identification. The method is robust, not affected by water volume and represents a useful tool for mosquito monitoring ...

Chiroptera Personality—A Guide for Assessing Personality Variation in Bats: Ecological, Methodological and Statistical Considerations

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
This paper addresses the underrepresentation of bats in animal personality research despite their ecological importance, offering a structured guide for studying consistent individual behavioural differences in this taxon. We outline key experimental, fieldwork and annotation considerations specific to bats' unique life histories, alongside a five‐step

Do Linking‐Expression Substitutions Mitigate Deterministic Interpretations of Genetic Information?

open access: yesJournal of Applied Philosophy, Volume 43, Issue 4, Page 973-996, August 2026.
ABSTRACT It is a common concern that broader audiences interpret scientific information about the genetic correlates and causes of complex human traits in an overly deterministic manner. A frequently proposed way to address this issue is to carefully select the linking expressions used to describe gene–trait relationships when communicating genetic ...

Secretory gene recruitments in vampire bat salivary adaptation and potential convergences with sanguivorous leeches

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2015
Regulatory evolution is thought to be fundamental to adaptive evolution. However, the identification of specific regulatory changes responsible for adaptation are sparse. Bats of the family Phyllostomidae, owing to their unparalleled rate of ecological
