Isolating the role of the matrix at patch and landscape scales
This is the first experimental test of the spatial scales of matrix effects. Both patch‐scale and landscape‐scale matrix influence populations through a cross‐scale interaction altering survival, reproduction, and movement. Conservation in fragmentated landscapes should consider the matrix context of patches while focusing on local matrix due to its ...

Loss of Paired Weapons Leads to Larger Testes and a Lighter Load for Dispersal
We addressed a weapons testes trade‐off using natural limb loss as an experimental manipulation of weaponized legs in the leaf‐footed cactus bug. We found that individuals missing weapons invested in their testes proportional to the number of weaponized legs they lost.
