Divine Self‐Placement, Sacred Placemaking: The Virgin of El Rocío and Territorial Custodianship in Early Modern Spain

open access: yesJournal of Religious History, EarlyView.
This essay argues that the Rocío hallazgo legend employs divine self‐placement to turn territorial uncertainty into sacred stewardship. The Virgin's miraculous refusal to move establishes the marshlands of Las Rocinas as a communal religious site, transforming a marginal and legally ambiguous area.

Hemipteran vectors of stylet‐borne plant viruses: Aphids lead the charge

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Among all sap‐feeding hemipterans, aphids stand out by far as the most important vectors of noncirculative plant viruses. Compared to whiteflies and mealybugs, aphids’ highly specialized stylet anatomy and distinct feeding behaviors contribute, together with other features of their biology, to their remarkable efficiency in transmitting stylet‐borne ...

A method to estimate actual infrastructure‐induced mortality by integrating hierarchical sources of imperfect detection

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Human infrastructures are among the most impactful wildlife threats. Although estimates of animal mortality by these structures exist over a given period, they typically do not account for several levels of imperfect detection (i.e. difference between recorded and true mortality).

Individual bird identification by modelling temporal structure in bioacoustic embeddings

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Identifying individual animals from vocalizations is an emerging research area in computational bioacoustics. This non‐invasive approach reduces reliance on physical capture and tagging for wildlife monitoring. Recent advances in this area leverage deep learning and bioacoustic foundation models adapted from species‐level classifiers. However,

Balancing Fire Regimes and Population Dynamics for the Conservation of a Microendemic Lizard From a Biodiversity Hotspot

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
Disturbance from fire mediates a potential ecophysiological trade‐off between adult performance and juvenile recruitment in the microendemic lizard Ameivula jalapensis. While open, burned habitats enhance adult thermoregulation and condition, unburned patches remain critical for juvenile thermal optima.

When and why to give shorebirds a head start

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Headstarting is a translocation technique involving the hatching or rearing of wild eggs or young in captivity and the release of those individuals back to the wild at or before independence. It has been trialed as a conservation intervention for shorebirds over recent decades to improve the population trend of target populations by increasing

Advancing conservation breeding programs for marine invertebrates

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract In the face of ecosystem change and biodiversity loss caused by climate change and other stressors, conservation breeding, or captive breeding, with the aim of reintroduction for wild population recovery, is an emerging tool for preventing species’ extinction and rehabilitating ecosystems.
