ABSTRACT Introduction Does virtue benefit its possessor, or is it beneficial for others but not the self? We tested two highly influential theories that offer contradictory answers. In particular, we focused on three “hard cases” for the theory that virtue promotes well‐being—that is, three virtues that aren't obviously enjoyable (compassion, patience,

Banksia attenuata (Proteaceae) attracts nocturnal scarab beetles with an unusual floral scent—the beetles pollinate the flower as they feed on pollen and nectar and mate on the inflorescences. Abstract Pollination by beetles has evolved multiple times in flowering plants but with relatively few plant species adapted specifically to pollination by ...

ABSTRACT Technological innovations for predicting fish age represent a paradigm shift from conventional age estimation methods used in fisheries science. Recently developed secondary methods rely on models trained on conventional age estimates, derived from subjective interpretation of growth patterns and a biological property of the fish to predict ...
