AUGURAL TERRITORIES: On the Prophetic Organizing of the Mid‐range
Abstract In this article I introduce the concept of augural territories to theorize the urbanism that emerged during pandemic lockdowns. I draw on ethnographic research in Madrid to examine how community‐based responses—including mutual aid networks, food pantries and neighbourhood associations—disrupted the spatial and temporal logics of territorial ...

A Note on the Nesting of \u3ci\u3eMimesa Lutaria\u3c/i\u3e (Hymenoptera: Sphecidae) [PDF]
Five nests of Mimesa lutaria (Fabricius) were excavated and studied at Cranberry Lake, S1. Lawrence County, NY. The nests were shallower than those of other species previously studied, yet the tumuli were large and conspicuous.

Coloration serves several fitness‐related functions, including thermoregulation, immunity, social signaling, sexual selection, and predator avoidance. Consequently, color polymorphism can have a significant impact on a species’ interactions with its environment, including its relationships with predators, prey, and potential mates. The wood tiger moth (

Late Pleistocene/Early Holocene Migratory Behavior of Ungulates Using Isotopic Analysis of Tooth Enamel and Its Effects on Forager Mobility. [PDF]
Zooarchaeological and paleoecological investigations have traditionally been unable to reconstruct the ethology of herd animals, which likely had a significant influence on the mobility and subsistence strategies of prehistoric humans.

Post-Conflict Affiliative Behaviors Towards Humans in Domestic Dogs (Canis familiaris) [PDF]
Social species need conflict-resolution mechanisms to maintain group cohesion and diminish aggression. Reconciliation (affiliative contact between opponents) and consolation (affiliative contact between the victim and an uninvolved third party) have been

Deriving shape-based features for C. elegans locomotion using dimensionality reduction methods [PDF]
High-throughput analysis of animal behavior is increasingly common following the advances of recording technology, leading to large high-dimensional data sets. This dimensionality can sometimes be reduced while still retaining relevant information.

Assessing drivers of population dynamics helps to mitigate human–wildlife conflicts. In Mediterranean areas, summer aridity reduces resources, potentially affecting ungulates' body condition and reproduction. In a mixed forested‐rural area, wild boar female body mass increased throughout summer in rainy‐mild years and decreased in hot‐dry years.
