Individual and environmental drivers of resource use in an endangered vulture: Integrating movement, spatial and social ecology
(2020-02-07)
The study of animal movement makes possible to understand how the spatial context influences individuals and populations, something especially important for species with high movement abilities able to wander routinely ...

Malacofauna from soft bottoms in the Cerro Gordo marine cave (Alboran Sea): biodiversity and spatial distribution
(Hellenic Centre for Marine Research, 2020)
A study has been carried out for the first time of the molluscan fauna of the Cerro Gordo submarine cave in the Spanish part of the Alboran Sea. The depth of the cave bottom ranges from 16 m at its entrance, to sea level ...

Molecular phylogeny and divergence time estimates in pennatulaceans (Cnidaria: Octocorallia: Pennatulacea)
(Instituto de Ciéncies del Mar de Barcelona, 2020)
Pennatulaceans are an important component of benthic marine communities usually related to soft bottoms. Despite their important ecological role, as yet little is known about their origin and divergence time. The first ...

Niche models at inter- and intraspecific levels reveal hierarchical niche differentiation in midwife toads
(Nature Research, 2020)
Variation and population structure play key roles in the speciation process, but adaptive intraspecific genetic variation is commonly ignored when forecasting species niches. Amphibians serve as excellent models for testing ...

Interaction of Climate Change with Effects of Conspecific and Heterospecific Density on Reproduction
(Wiley-Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2020)
We studied the relationship between temperature and the coexistence of great titParus majorand blue titCyanistes caeruleus, breeding in 75 study plots across Europe and North Africa. We expected an advance in laying date ...

Evolution of the environmental niche of amphibians in Western Mediterranean and conservation implications. Integrating modelling, environmental physiology and conservation traits
(2020-12-02)
Amphibians are one of the most environment dependent organism, being limited by physiological traits at two main life stages (larvae and adult). In addition, the Western Mediterranean region, our study area, has an old ...

Weak Effects of Geolocators on Small Birds: A Meta-analysis Controlled for Phylogeny and Publication Bias
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2020)
Currently, the deployment of tracking devices is one of the most frequently used approaches to study movement ecology of birds. Recent miniaturization of light-level geolocators enabled studying small bird species whose ...

A new genus and two new species of Caprellidae (Crustacea: Amphipoda) from mesophotic and deep-sea waters of Australia
(Australian Museum, 2020)
Caprellids from mesophotic and deep-sea waters from Australia have been scarcely studied. A new genus Pseudoliropus gen. nov., and two new species Pseudoliropus keablei and Pseudoprotella australiensis sp. nov. are ...

First record of Pseudaeginella arraialensis (Amphipoda: Caprellidea) from the Gulf of Mexico
(Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, 2020)
During a sampling campaign in Puerto Progreso, Yucatán, Mexico, several specimens of the caprellid Pseudaeginella arraialensis were collected. They were attached to buoys as part of fouling ...
