Role of protected areas in mitigating range loss and local extinctions of terrestrial mammals

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Protected areas (PAs) are a major tool in biodiversity conservation, but the extent to which they mitigate species declines is often unclear. We evaluated the effectiveness of PAs in mitigating range contraction and local extinction for 483 terrestrial mammal species.

Bats respond positively to local drainage ditch vegetation and forest amount in the broader landscape in a North American agroecosystem

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Using automated ultrasonic recorders, we assessed bat species richness and activity across agricultural drainage ditches that varied in mean vegetation height, variability in vegetation height, and mean width, as well as forest amount, distance to forest, and mean field size at the landscape scale in agroecosystems in eastern Ontario, Canada.

On the Importance of Expert‐Informed Variable Selection in Species Distribution Modelling

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Species Distribution Models (SDMs) are widely used to map species distribution and predict future responses to climate change. While the risk of selecting biologically non‐relevant predictors has been raised, numerous studies continue to fully rely on statistical approaches to automatically select predictors solely focusing on climate ...

Helminth Parasites of Bats (Chiroptera: Rhinopomatidae Bonaparte, 1838) from the Persian Gulf Coastal Area

open access: yesJournal of Medical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases, 2020
Introduction: Bats are natural reservoir hosts of several zoonotic infections. Few studies have demonstrated gut helminth community parasite in bats. In the present study, we investigated two intestinal helminths of two bat species, Rhinopoma muscatellum,
