Wild Bee Conservation: Habitat Heterogeneity and Ecological Improvement in Agricultural Land With Open Grassland

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
Here, we investigated the effects of different levels of habitat heterogeneity and of ecological improvement of habitat to increase foraging resources on wild bee communities in Austria and Luxembourg. We found that ecological improvement was important in Luxembourg for species richness and abundance but less so in Austria; here, habitat heterogeneity ...

Video evidence that cuckoos farm their hosts by ejecting nestlings

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
When host nests are scarce, avian brood parasites would benefit from behaviours that increase the availability of suitable nests. Several studies reported ejection of host nestlings from nests by brood parasites; however, whether brood parasites do so to

Can nest design hinder brood parasitism success?

open access: yesJournal of Avian Biology
Avian nest design varies depending on environmental factors but may also be influenced by between‐species interactions. In the brood parasitism context, hosts may evolve nest architectures that may limit parasite access to the nest cup, reduce parasite ...

Data from: Common cuckoo females are not choosy when removing an egg during parasitism

open access: yes, 2016
Females of avian brood parasites have evolved various tactics to succeed in their reproductive strategy. Many of these adaptations, for example speed and timing of egg laying or egg mimicry, have been investigated in detail.
