A polytypic species revisited: Phylogenetic and morphological variation, taxonomic status, and geographical distribution of Trachops (Chiroptera: Phyllostomidae)

The study reevaluates the taxonomic status of the bat genus Trachops using morphological, morphometric, and molecular data, elevating T. cirrhosus ehrhardti to species status and challenging previous size differentiation assumptions.

Phylogenomics Illuminates the Evolutionary History of Wild Silkmoths in Space and Time (Lepidoptera: Saturniidae)

This study reconstructs the evolutionary history of wild silkmoths using phylogenomic data, revealing a Neotropical origin and two Old World colonization events, along with taxonomic rearrangements.

Characterizing the spatial signal of environmental DNA in river systems using a community ecology approach

The paper assesses eDNA's ability to capture spatial patterns of fish assemblages in rivers and finds its spatial signal matches local capture methods over short distances.

At each site its diversity: DNA barcoding reveals remarkable earthworm diversity in neotropical rainforests of French Guiana

This study uses DNA barcoding to reveal high earthworm diversity in French Guiana, showing strong spatial effects and hidden diversity in non-soil microhabitats.

Climatic niche change of fish is faster at high latitude and in marine environments

This study finds that climatic niche change in fish is faster at high latitudes and more pronounced in freshwater species compared to marine species.

Species better track the shifting isotherms in the oceans than on lands

This study shows marine species better track shifting ocean isotherms than terrestrial species due to differences in environmental constraints and human impacts.
