Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.ABSTRACT Urbanisation and urban heat frequently co‐occur, and climate change is expected to amplify these effects, yet their consequences for population dynamics and life‐history traits remain unclear. Using the common woodlouse Armadillidium vulgare, a widespread decomposer and urban indicator species, we combined fine‐scale field surveys with ...

Insects and Survival: A Review of Primary and Secondary Defense Strategies
Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 7, Page 601-624, July 2026.Based on a review of three decades of literature, insect defense mechanisms are classified into primary (I) and secondary (II) mechanisms of behavioral, morphological, and chemical nature. These mechanisms have been recorded in 22 (I) and 20 (II) orders, respectively.

Journal of Fish Diseases, Volume 49, Issue 2, February 2026.ABSTRACT Tail fan necrosis (TFN) is a shell disease affecting spiny lobsters' outer integument, with significant implications for the health and commercial viability of red rock lobsters (Jasus edwardsii) in New Zealand. Despite its impact, the potential role of a microbial agent in TFN remains poorly understood.

Tag attachment reduces the initiation of recruitment in the rock ant, Temnothorax rugatulus
Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 1, January–March 2026.Tags did not significantly affect feeder visitation. In contrast, recruitment behaviour differed significantly, with tagged ants being less likely to engage in tandem runs than formerly tagged ants. Abstract Technological advances continue to push the boundaries of scientific inquiry in animal behaviour.
