Fine‐scale spatial variation in eastern grey squirrel melanism across a complex urban landscape

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
By sampling 197 parks, the study demonstrates how natural geography creates divergence within cities. The findings reveal that the St. Lawrence River and its tributaries act as barriers, disrupting urban melanism clines in grey squirrels. Ultimately, the research indicates that natural features still dictate evolutionary rules in anthropogenic ...

Ecological scale mediates nonlinear relationships of animal nutrient excretion with dissolved organic matter

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
We show that nutrient excretion by vertebrates and invertebrates varies nonlinearly with dissolved organic matter concentration and composition and by taxonomic rank, with stronger patterns at the individual compared to the community level. Our findings highlight the importance of examining animal‐mediated nutrient cycling across taxa and ecological ...

The company you keep: becoming one(self) in an Indonesian convent En bonne compagnie : devenir (quelqu’)un dans un couvent indonésien Pergaulan dalam biara di Indonesia: sebuah proses pembentukan diri*

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.

The morphological affinities of the fossil cranium from Kabua, Kenya Affinités morphologiques du crâne fossile de Kabua (Kenya)

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Our current understanding of the origins of Homo sapiens is limited, in part, by the fragmented fossil record from Late Pleistocene and early Holocene Africa. Here, we re‐examine the Kabua 1 cranium, an enigmatic and little‐studied Kenyan fossil discovered in the 1950s. We compare virtual reconstructions created previously by our team with a wide range
