A rapid inventory of amphibians, squamates, and bats of Mata de Plátano Field Station and Nature Reserve, Arecibo, Puerto Rico. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
We perform a rapid survey of amphibians, reptiles, and bats at the Mata de Plátano Field Station and Nature Reserve in Arecibo, Puerto Rico, a protected reserve adjacent to a larger forest. Our rapid survey resulted in finding 70%, 14%, and 22% of the amphibians, reptiles, and bat fauna, respectively, highlighting that smaller areas can act as refuges ...

Intersexual chemo-sensation in a “visually-oriented” lizard, Anolis sagrei [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2016
While the conspicuous visual displays of anoles have been studied in great depth, the possibility that these lizards may also interact through chemical signalling has received hardly any consideration.

Insectivorous birds reduce herbivory but do not increase mangrove growth across productivity zones

open access: yesEcology, Volume 103, Issue 10, October 2022., 2022
Abstract Top‐down effects of predators and bottom‐up effects of resources are important drivers of community structure and function in a wide array of ecosystems. Fertilization experiments impose variation in resource availability that can mediate the strength of predator impacts, but the prevalence of such interactions across natural productivity ...

Extreme positive allometry of animal adhesive pads and the size limits of adhesion-based climbing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Organismal functions are size-dependent whenever body surfaces supply body volumes. Larger organisms can develop strongly folded internal surfaces for enhanced diffusion, but in many cases areas cannot be folded so that their enlargement is constrained ...
