pylifemap: Mapping data onto the tree of life
Abstract The need to visualize data associated with NCBI Taxonomy Identifiers is growing in various biological fields ranging from comparative genomics to metagenomics and metabarcoding, and even for outreach. No tool today allows visualization of such data while still keeping the full vision of the whole taxonomy, possibly causing a biased view of the

Vulnerability of Bats in Australia to Wind Turbine Mortality: A Trait‐Based Assessment
ABSTRACT Wind turbine collisions are a leading cause of bat mortality globally, yet the vulnerability of Australian bat taxa remains poorly understood. Trait‐based assessments offer a valuable method for evaluating mortality risk in the absence of data on species‐ and region‐specific turbine interactions.

Abstract Prioritization in conservation is crucial for the development of efficient and effective decision‐making policies. For many decades, the importance of some species and their habitats has been assessed and applied in conservation legislation, but bats and their diurnal roosts have ofbeen overlooked.

Beyond Bergmann and Allen: A Unified Framework for Thermoregulatory Morphology
ABSTRACT Context Ecogeographical rules such as Bergmann's and Allen's have long guided expectations about how organismal size and shape vary across temperature gradients. Yet these rules are typically tested independently despite sharing a common thermoregulatory basis.

Identifying and Quantifying Conflicts Between Humans and Terrestrial Mammals in Great Britain
We conducted a literature review to identify conflicts between humans and terrestrial mammals in Great Britain. A modified Generic Impact Scoring System was applied to all conflicts so that mammals could be ranked according to their level of impact to help identify the most damaging species and to aid decision‐making. ABSTRACT Introduction Interactions

This semi‐systematic review supports the two dominant drivers of birth phenology: the seasonality and predation hypotheses. Even though there is evidence of their importance, the effects of female, offspring and population characteristics remain marginally accounted for. Asian and South and Central American species are currently understudied.

Detection of Leptospira in cane toads (Rhinella jimi) from urban and rural Paraíba, Brazil
Abstract Background Leptospirosis is a significant zoonosis in tropical regions, where poor sanitation and favourable climate aid its spread. Synanthropic animals such as the cane toad (Rhinella jimi), which share environments with both people and wild and domestic animals, may harbour Leptospira and contribute to urban and rural transmission cycles ...
