Eva Gazagne et al.
Sleeping site selection is essential for understanding primate behavioral ecology and survival. Identifying where species sleep helps determine priority areas and critical resources for targeted conservation efforts. However, observing slee...
Assessing the effectiveness of acoustic signals in mark-recapture studies to estimate dolphins' population size [0.03%]
评估声学信号在标志-回收研究中估算中华白海豚种群数量的有效性
Elena Papale,Maria Ceraulo,Martina Gregorietti et al.
Elena Papale et al.
Accurate estimations of animal population size are pivotal for implementing management strategies properly. Recapture technique based on sounds as a specimen identification mark has barely been used for marine mammals. However, inferring ab...
Artificial light at night alters foraging behavior of freshwater amphipods depending on the light spectrum and the presence of predation cues [0.03%]
人工夜光根据光线光谱和捕食者线索的存在情况改变淡水无角类的觅食行为

Wrya Hassan
Artificial light at night (ALAN) is a common anthropogenic disturbance, which alters animal behavior. However, little is known about the impact of the spectral composition of ALAN and co-occurring predation risk on the behavior of aquatic o...
Duets convey information about pair and individual identities in a Neotropical bird [0.03%]
杜斯曲揭示新热带鸟类配对体和个体身份信息
Pedro Diniz,Edvaldo F Silva-Jr,Gianlucca S Rech et al.
Pedro Diniz et al.
Vocal individuality is essential for social discrimination but has been poorly studied in animals that produce communal signals (duets or choruses). Song overlapping and temporal coordination make the assessment of individuality in communal...
Natal and breeding dispersal patterns in a patchy population of the western yellow wagtail [0.03%]
西方林柳莺斑块种群的繁殖扩散模式及natal DISPERSAL
Dmitry Shitikov,Nikita Grachev,Viktoria Grudinskaya et al.
Dmitry Shitikov et al.
Dispersal is an important life history trait with significant consequences for spatially structured populations, as the exchange of individuals between habitat patches is crucial for maintaining metapopulation connectivity. In this study, w...
Body size and condition, not allochrony, affect temporal reproductive patterns in a prolonged breeding anuran [0.03%]
个体大小和状况而非异时性影响着一种全年都有繁殖活动的两栖动物的季节性繁殖模式
Stephan Burgstaller,Andras Horvath,Marie-Luise Aiglsperger et al.
Stephan Burgstaller et al.
Individual phenological life-history variations in the context of seasonal conditions are well documented in fishes and birds. However, amphibians, a group heavily affected by habitat loss and fragmentation, have received relatively little ...
Paternal predatory risk alters parental behavior and offspring phenotypes in biparental Brandt's voles [0.03%]
雄性捕食压力影响双亲照料行为和子代表型：以Brandt's丛鼠为模型物种的研究
Ruiyong Wu,Jing Zhu,Ping Wang et al.
Ruiyong Wu et al.
Paternal predation risk can program offspring phenotypes via maternal responses and epigenetic marks of spermatozoa. However, the processes and consequences of this experience in biparental species are unknown. Here, we examined how preconc...
Altitude and ground brightness explain interpopulation variation in dorsal coloration in a lizard [0.03%]
栖居海拔和地表亮度解释了石龙子背色的种群差异
José J Cuervo,María C Durán-García,Josabel Belliure
José J Cuervo
Non-signaling functions of coloration include thermoregulation (thermal melanism hypothesis), protection against ultraviolet radiation (photoprotection hypothesis), and concealment from predators (crypsis hypothesis). We investigated whethe...
Sparrowhawk imitation or convergent alarm signal? A new hypothesis for bubbling call of cuckoos with empirical testing [0.03%]
Sparrowhawk拟态还是趋同的警戒信号？一种新的杜鹃鸣叫假说及其实证检验
Huisheng Wang,Xiangyang Chen,Jiaojiao Wang et al.
Huisheng Wang et al.
Alarm calls in bird vocalizations serve as acoustic signals announcing danger. Owing to the convergent evolution of alarm calls, some bird species can benefit from eavesdropping on certain parameters of alarm calls of other species. Vocal m...
Reproductive behavior and early immature morphology of Portschinskia magnifica: implications for evolutionary biology in bot flies (Diptera: Oestridae) [0.03%]
