Ecophysiology of an Avian Invader: Body Condition and Metabolic Rate Adjustments to Ambient Temperature

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study examines the ecophysiological responses of common waxbills to temperature variation in Portugal. We measured body condition and basal metabolic rate (BMR) during summer and winter across two regions in Portugal. Body condition was negatively correlated with temperature, while the relationship between BMR and temperature varied seasonally. In

Bat Tongues and Foraging: Linking Morphology to Hunting Strategies

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We linked the bat tongue's mediodorsal lobe (MDL), a muscular prominence, to foraging strategies. Aerial hawkers exhibit tall MDLs and prominent forward‐pointing papillae. The MDL may function as a barrier or filter, preventing unintentional ingestion of non‐food material, aiding in prey handling, and controlling food access during fast flight ...

Geographic Patterns of Head Morphology in Syngnathus typhle Across Marine Regions

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Morphometric analysis of Syngnathus typhle head shape shows distinct geographic patterns across Baltic, North, Atlantic, and Mediterranean marine regions, driven by variation in snout length, head depth, and eye position. Findings provide a non‐invasive baseline for conservation monitoring.

Stable Isotope Analysis as a Tool to Prevent Illicit Wildlife Trade of Songbirds in Brazil

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
Feather isotopes provide clear differences between wild and captive songbirds in Brazil. Combining multiple isotopes improved classification accuracy and revealed individuals falsely declared as captive‐bred. These results demonstrate the potential of isotope analysis to detect wildlife laundering in the bird trade.

Species Distribution Models Reveal the Resilience of Protected Areas for Conserving an Endemic Amazonian Canid

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
This graphical abstract illustrates the impacts of climate change on the distribution of the Amazon‐endemic canid Atelocynus microtis, highlighting projected habitat loss under future scenarios (SSP2–4.5 and SSP5–8.5). Despite substantial reductions in suitable habitat, a significant proportion remains within Protected Areas, emphasizing their critical
