AbstractSibling cannibalism—the killing and consumption of conspecifics within broods—carries a high risk of direct and inclusive fitness loss for parents and offspring. We reported previously that a unique vibrational behavior shown by the mother of the subsocial burrower bug,Adomerus rotundus(Heteroptera: Cydnidae), induced synchronous hatching ...

ABSTRACT Weapons are morphological structures used by animals in various contexts, especially in intra‐specific contests and visual displays. In snapping shrimps of the genus Alpheus, particularly the monogamous species Alpheus brasileiro, both sexes bear enlarged chelipeds, potentially conferring advantages in mate competition or territorial defence ...

Bombus terrestris and Apis mellifera colonies sharing the same landscape (<50 m from each other) collected pollen with significantly different heavy metal concentrations. B. terrestris‐collected pollen contained 2–7× higher concentrations of arsenic, chromium, cobalt, lead and tin than A. mellifera‐collected pollen.

Time‐stressed Bar‐tailed Godwits exploit novel prey during migratory fuelling
Long‐distance migratory birds breeding in the Arctic face challenges as earlier snowmelt shifts the timing of vital resources. To keep up with these advancements, birds will need to modify their migration. Higher fuelling rates during stopover have been identified as a critical mechanism for accelerating migration, but this requires adequate food ...
