Northern bobwhite chick survival, growth, and movement in relation to broadcast supplemental feed and drought

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
The northern bobwhite is an economically important species across its geographic range that has experienced declining population numbers. There is ample research dedicated to evaluating management practices for the adult life stage. However, effects of management on bobwhite chicks remain understudied, despite this being the most vulnerable age class ...

Rock solid: winter ecology of boreal bats at natural hibernation sites

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Overwintering bats at northerly latitudes spend up to eight months a year in a state of dormancy: a period characterised by extended use of torpor, but not an absolute lack of activity. Although this period constitutes a majority of their yearly cycle, little is known about their ecology during this time, because of the cryptic behaviour of bats ...

Landscape diversity can promote functional diversity of spider assemblages while habitat characteristics filter for specific traits

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Agricultural landscape simplification due to the loss of semi‐natural habitats can act as an environmental filter for species and their functional traits. Both local‐ and landscape‐level factors can shape community structure; although through different mechanisms.

Pollen essential amino acids shape bat–flower interaction networks

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Although pollen consumption by phytophagous bats has long been documented, the role of its protein and amino acid content in driving plant–pollinator interactions remains largely overlooked.
