Population monitoring and conservation implications of intra‐ and interspecific nest occupation rates in swallows

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2024.
The long‐term monitoring of nests may constitute a reliable and affordable method, with the help of citizen science, for assessing changes in breeding population sizes and conservation threats of mud‐nest building hirundines worldwide. Breeding adults, and completely built and destroyed nests of red‐rumped swallows Cecropis daurica (a1–a5), barn ...

Diagnosis and management of Cryptococcus neoformans var. grubii detected in an oral mass in a pink‐tongued skink (Cyclodomorphus gerarrdii)

Australian Veterinary Journal, Volume 102, Issue 8, Page 416-422, August 2024.
Cryptococcus is an encapsulated yeast that is found in both yeast and hyphal forms. Cryptococcus neoformans and C. gattii are the most medically important species, causing disease in both immunocompromised and immunocompetent individuals. A large, friable, sublingual mass was surgically resected from the oral cavity of a pink‐tongued skink ...

Climate‐related variation of metabolic rate across the distribution of a broadly tolerant invasive forest pest

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 51, Issue 6, Page 1117-1132, June 2024.
Abstract Aim Metabolic rate is a widely studied physiological species trait related to energetics, climate, and geographical distributions. Hypotheses have been proposed to explain variation in metabolic rate, but evidence has been mixed due to the limited sampling scope of intraspecific studies.
