Effects of algal and animal food combinations on surfacing activity and food utilization in the climbing perch Anabas scandens [PDF]

, 1977
A. scandens was fed on five different combinations of the alga Spirogyra maxima and goat-liver. With increasing liver supplementation, the following increases were noted: consumption of food from 31 to 152 cal/g live fish•day, assimilation efficiency ...

High‐speed infrared video analysis of sonations in the scissor‐tailed nightjar Hydropsalis torquata

Journal of Avian Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 3, May 2026.
Many species of nightjar reportedly produce short, impulsive wing sounds during courtship, but the kinematics and physical mechanisms of sound production remain speculative. Using synchronized infrared high‐speed video and audio recordings we describe the mechanism of sound production of a sonation in the nocturnal family Caprimulgidae; the wing ...

Effects of Partner Workload and Increasing Environmental Temperature on Nestling Provisioning and Body Temperature in a Declining Aerial Insectivore

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, Volume 345, Issue 4, Page 414-426, May 2026.
ABSTRACT With climate change, birds will face increasing thermoregulatory demands, which may alter reproductive behaviors such as offspring provisioning. Experimental studies have shown that the provisioning capacity of female tree swallows (Tachycineta bicolor) is limited by their risk of overheating. Given that parental investment strategies may vary

Population dynamics of Townsend's big‐eared bats: effect of age and drought on survival

The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 4, May 2026.
We estimated age‐specific yearly survival of female Townsend's big‐eared bats in Inyo and Mono Counties, California. We found that both juvenile and adult survival were negatively impacted by drought, and that detection probability was lower for hand‐recapture than for bats detected via pass‐through antenna arrays.

Acoustic indices are not useful for biodiversity research

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1506-1518, May 2026.
Abstract Biodiversity assessment using passive acoustic monitoring has historically been challenging due to the limited availability of multi‐species acoustic detectors. In this context, acoustic indices were introduced as an alternative way to represent species diversity in acoustic datasets.

Taxonomic revision and conservation concerns of the trapezitine genus Croitana Waterhouse, 1932 (Lepidoptera: Hesperiidae) from Australia

Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 2, May 2026.
Abstract Croitana Waterhouse, 1932 (Trapezitinae) is a small genus of skippers endemic to Australia, with most species restricted to semi‐arid and arid biomes where the larvae specialise on grasses (Poaceae) in the genera Neurachne R.Br., Enteropogon Nees and Austrostipa S.W.L. Jacobs & J.Everett.

Effects of dietary supplementation of spray dried hog plum (Spondias pinnata (L.f.) Kurz) fruit powder on growth, digestive enzyme activity, and skin mucus immune parameters of climbing perch (Anabas testudineus (Bloch, 1972)

Veterinary Integrative Sciences
The effects of dietary supplementation of spray-dried hog plum (Spondias pinnata (L.f.) Kurz) fruit powder (SPP) on growth, digestive enzyme activity, and skin mucus immune parameters of climbing perch (Anabas testudineus (Bloch, 1972)) were ...
