Identifying knowledge gaps about context dependency in freshwater species invasions
Oikos, EarlyView.The abiotic template of freshwater ecosystems is being altered by human activity on a global scale, often promoting the establishment of new invasive taxa and increasing the likelihood of facilitation between invaders. These positive interactions represent a substantive threat to freshwater ecosystems by promoting the establishment and persistence of ...

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Sympatric bat species can co‐exist and avoid interspecific competition via niche differentiation e.g. diet. Detecting dietary differences can be achieved by comparing dietary niches of sympatric and allopatric populations. If dietary overlap is higher in sympatry versus allopatry, co‐occurrence may be altering the dietary niche of the species.

Sleep in invertebrates crayfish [PDF]
Frontiers in Bioscience, 2012 Although sleep is a very conspicuous behavior in all animals that we are frequently in contact with and possibly in many others, its scientific study was for many years restricted to very few of them. However, since the end of the XX century there have been studies about sleep in several animals and currently many of them attempt to found, first, if ...

Mitochondrial function predicts dominance status in brown trout
Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract In social hierarchies, winning contests confers better access to food, shelter and reproductive opportunities. Clear dominance relationships are often apparent even when opponents are matched for experience, age, size and other obvious characteristics.
