Closing the Gaps: Integrating Biological, Ecological and Taxonomic Data to Support the Identification and Conservation of the Atlantic Pygmy Devil Ray (Mobula hypostoma)

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The Atlantic pygmy devil ray (Mobula hypostoma) is an endangered mobulid species whose conservation is hindered by taxonomic confusion and significant gaps in ecological and life history knowledge. Here, we present an integrative study that clarifies the species' taxonomic status, updates its distribution and synthesizes new and existing data ...

Near‐Source Ground Motion From Normal Faults: Insights From the Physics‐Based Numerical Simulations of the 1980 Irpinia Earthquake, Southern Italy

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.
In this paper, the physics‐based numerical simulation of the strongest instrumental earthquake in the recent seismic history of Italy, i.e., the Nov 23, 1980 Irpinia earthquake in Southern Italy, with magnitude MW 6.8, is presented and discussed. A 3D spectral element model covering an extended region (147 × 110 km2) was constructed, with a frequency ...

Phylogeny of subtribe Gonolobinae (Apocynaceae‐Asclepiadoideae) based on molecular and morphological data with a revised generic classification

TAXON, Volume 75, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract The presently most densely sampled molecular phylogeny of the widespread New World subtribe Gonolobinae is presented, including about 35% of the ca. 520 species. Sampling focused on an even representation of the three main areas of total Gonolobinae distribution, South America, Central/North America, and the West Indian Islands, and the ...

Evaluations of Phenotypic Diversity of the Arsi Cattle Populations Reared in the Sidama Region, Ethiopia

Advances in Agriculture, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The present study aimed to assess the phenotypic diversity of Arsi cattle populations in the Sidama region, Ethiopia, using multivariate analysis and structural indices. A total of 360 cattle across three location/agroecological zones (highland [HL], midland [ML], and lowland [LL]) were sampled, from both sexes and age groups.

Assessment of the Safety Profile of Purified Pentadesma butyracea (Clusiaceae) Gum Intended as a Pharmaceutical Excipient

Journal of Toxicology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Pentadesma butyracea (family Clusiaceae) bark is widely used in traditional medicine across sub‐Saharan Africa. However, the investigation of the safety profile of the gum exudate obtained from the stem bark of the plant is undocumented. This study evaluated the acute and subacute toxicity of the purified Pentadesma butyracea gum (PBG) in 36 male ...
