Laure Cauchard et al.
The ecological and selective processes acting on cognitive traits have received recent attention because of the potentially key role of cognition in rapid behavioural adjustments in response to environmental variation. Innovation, a cogniti...
When the brightest is not the best: illuminant estimation from the geometry of specular highlights [0.03%]
当最亮的不是最好的时候：从镜面高光几何形状进行光源估计

Colour constancy supports stable object colour perception across changes in illumination. Illuminant colour can be inferred from white surfaces or specular highlights, and many models adopt a 'brightest is white' heuristic to identify illum...
Real-time invasion dynamics reveal the drivers of predator spread and prey extirpation on an island [0.03%]
实地侵入动力学揭示了捕食者在岛屿上的扩散以及猎物的灭绝驱动因素
Guillem Casbas,Marc Vez-Garzón,Elba Montes et al.
Guillem Casbas et al.
Non-native predators profoundly restructure island biological communities worldwide, yet their management is hindered by limited empirical understanding of the dynamics of predator spread and prey extirpation. Here, we integrate two decades...
Emerging innovations in movement ecology to address planetary challenges [0.03%]
运用运动生态学新兴创新应对地球面临的挑战
Talia Speaker,Sara Beery,Sarah C Davidson et al.
Talia Speaker et al.
Movement ecology-the study of how and why animals move within their environments-stands to offer transformative insights into our rapidly changing world, with benefits for both nature and people. Here, we present the first global horizon sc...
Empirical evidence for a trade-off between reproduction and tumour dynamics in the freshwater cnidarian Hydra oligactis [0.03%]
水生刺胞动物水螅生殖与肿瘤动态之间的权衡的实证证据

Nikita Stepanskyy et al.
Reproduction is a key life-history trait but often comes at the expense of somatic maintenance, including ageing and susceptibility to disease. While reproduction-immunity trade-offs have been experimentally demonstrated in the context of i...
The secret of the saws: historical DNA analysis reveals global genetic diversity loss in a highly threatened species [0.03%]
锯子的秘密——历史DNA分析揭示了一个极度濒危物种的全球遗传多样性丧失
Annmarie Fearing,Kelcee L Smith,Kevin A Feldheim et al.
Annmarie Fearing et al.
Genetic diversity is critical to long-term survival of species but can be eroded by population declines driven by human pressures. Temporal genetic monitoring of threatened species can reveal changes in genetic diversity over time, providin...
Phylogenomics of Manticorini tiger beetles supports ancient Gondwanan vicariance and recent American amphitropical disjunction [0.03%]
虎甲科猛小蠹组的系统基因组学支持古冈瓦纳分异和最近的大西洋泛热带分布偏差理论
Grey T Gustafson,Seth M Bybee,Cody Raul Cardenas et al.
Grey T Gustafson et al.
Disjunct distributions have long fascinated biologists, particularly those found in the Southern Hemisphere. Gondwanan vicariance has been invoked to explain these patterns, with relatively limited studies having phylogenetically tested thi...
Developmental shifts in eye morphology and visual ecology of banded flower mantis (Theopropus elegans) [0.03%]
条纹花螳属若虫和成虫眼的形态学及视觉生态的变化
Ruchao Qian,Yash Sondhi,John Currea et al.
Ruchao Qian et al.
Compound eyes display high morphological diversity across arthropods, including rare cone-shaped forms whose visual function is puzzling because their unusual shape seems to defy expectations of how eyes sample visual space. Species in whic...
Recent lifestyle change impacts sleep and circadian rhythms among the Indigenous peoples of Peninsular Malaysia [0.03%]
近期生活方式的改变影响了马来西亚半岛原住民的睡眠和昼夜节律

Kathleen D Reinhardt et al.
Sleep disorders are rising globally, but their lifestyle causes remain unclear. We recorded sleep-wake patterns via actigraphy from 1039 Orang Asli adults in Peninsular Malaysia experiencing varying levels of market integration, including a...
Social cues on stone tools outweigh raw material properties in wild primates [0.03%]
石制工具的社会线索在野生灵长类动物中比原材料特性更为重要

Johanna Henke-von der Malsburg et al.
Tool use is known among many taxa but its frequency in the animal kingdom is rare. The socio-ecological conditions through which tool use is acquired, transmitted and maintained are the subject of extensive study. Understanding these dynami...
