Heteropoda huntsman spiders are large, fast‐moving predators widely distributed across tropical and subtropical regions, where they function as important nocturnal hunters. Despite their ecological prominence, the evolutionary and biogeographic history of the genus remains poorly resolved. Here, we analysed a six‐locus dataset (two mitochondrial and four nuclear genes) to estimate divergence times and reconstruct ancestral ran...

This study explored the prevalence and types of microplastic (MP) pollution in three fish species—Labeo rohita, Wallago attu, and Cirrhinus mrigala—collected from the Panjnad Barrage in South Punjab, Pakistan. MPs were analyzed from the gastrointestinal tracts (GITs), gills, and muscles of 90 fish samples. Advanced analytical techniques, including Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Scanning Electron Microscopy/Ene...
