Labiolingual thickness and cross‐sectional area in callitrichid incisors
Many primates gouge to extract gums or saps from trees as part of their diet. Gouging callitrichid monkeys are characterized by lower incisors that are labiolingually thicker than non‐gougers, however, their incisors are not any larger in cross‐section. This difference may provide key insight into the gouging behavior of fossil primates.

New records for the Australian burrower bug species (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Cydnidae)
New records are presented for 23 Australian species of the family Cydnidae (Pentatomoidea). Alonips papuanus is documented for the first time in Australia. The first precise localities for Aethus parvulus in Australia are provided. Additionally, five species are reported as new records for Australian states and territories. These are Byrsinus ochraceus

Our study compares motion‐activated camera traps with conventional direct observation using 6 years of bird‐monitoring data from Jeju Island. Camera traps recorded additional species and revealed detection biases linked to camera height and bird‐to‐camera distance, complementing observer‐based surveys.

How wildlife respond to tropical cyclones: short‐term tactics and long‐term impacts
ABSTRACT From butterflies to lizards and from sharks to seabirds, wildlife exhibit tactics to survive the impacts of tropical cyclones, also known as hurricanes, cyclones, or typhoons depending on where they occur. Some species seek refuge during the storm by moving, some remain in place and ride it out, and others move longer distances, avoiding the ...

We quantified inter‐ and intraspecific variation in web architecture across three Australian funnel‐web spider species using image‐based morphometrics. Species differed significantly in web size, shape and sensory‐to‐capture zone allocation and these differences support both ecological interpretation and non‐invasive field identification.

In this study, we utilized DNA metabarcoding of 207 fecal samples to describe the diet of flock‐foraging godwits in southwest Friesland, the Netherlands, during pre‐nesting (March) and post‐nesting (May–June) periods. To assess whether dietary changes were resource or selectivity based, we simultaneously quantified soil macrofauna biomass and measured ...

Over the past decades, Arctic and alpine biomes have warmed faster than the global average. Substantial vegetation changes have been reported as a response to this warming, including increased productivity and the spread of warm‐adapted (thermophilic) species that are less resistant to grazing pressure into higher latitudes and altitudes.
