Occurrence and evolution of cannibal behaviour in extant snakes

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Extant snakes (Serpentes) are a highly diverse group of squamate reptiles, which have independently evolved key morphological adaptations to consume a large variety of vertebrate and invertebrate prey. While these predator–prey interactions have been widely addressed by several studies, little is known regarding the occurrence of cannibal ...

A century of theories of balancing selection

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Traits that affect organismal fitness are often highly genetically variable. This genetic variation is vital for populations to adapt to their environments, but it is also surprising given that nature – after all – ‘selects’ the best genotypes at the expense of those that fall short.

Prioritising research on endocrine disruption in the marine environment: a global perspective

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A healthy ocean is a crucial life support system that regulates the global climate, is a source of oxygen and supports major economic activities. A vast and understudied biodiversity from micro‐ to macro‐organisms is integral to ocean health.

Global diversification of coastal Cafius rove beetles (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae) driven by ocean currents since the early Miocene

Cladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract As our understanding of abiotic factors continues to grow, along with insights into the biological traits of organisms, so too does the sophistication of studies exploring global diversification and spatio‐temporal distribution patterns. The global distribution of coastal Cafius rove beetles, combined with the endemic distribution patterns ...
