Bottom‐up and top‐down effects combine to drive predator–prey interactions in a forest biodiversity experiment

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study constructed a real spider–prey interaction network using metabarcoding, integrating multitrophic levels (Plant–Prey–Spider) and multiple diversity indices (taxonomic, functional and phylogenetic diversity) to analyse how bottom‐up effects from tree communities and top‐down effects from spider communities influence spider–prey interactions in

Subtle stressors—Strong responses. Consistent negative effects of avian blood parasites on phenotypic and demographic traits across songbirds

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Avian blood parasites are widespread and often considered benign, yet mounting evidence suggests they subtly impair host traits. This meta‐analysis is timely and necessary to quantify their true impact across systems, challenging assumptions and highlighting overlooked consequences for fitness and population dynamics. Abstract Stressors that subtly yet

The Culicoides (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) of Belize, Central America [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
The Culicoides fauna of Belize is poorly known, and until 197 4 only 3 species were recorded. Nineteen species of Culicoides from Belize were identified from six collection sites: C. barbosai Wirth & Blanton, C. crepuscularis Malloch, C.

Transgenerational effects increase the vulnerability of a host–parasitoid system to rising temperatures

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Insect thermal performance can be modulated by temperatures experienced by preceding generations, but it is unclear how these effects may scale up to communities. Using an experimental Drosophila–parasitoid system and simulations, transgenerational effects affecting both trophic levels are shown to have emergent impacts on persistence under rising ...

Foliar herbivory pushes plant individuals towards the periphery of a plant–floral visitor interaction network

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, EarlyView.
The authors demonstrate how the effects of herbivory on a key plant trait can cascade to shape the interactions between individual plants and their flower visitors and how the indirect effects between herbivores and pollinators can modulate the structure of interaction networks in terrestrial ecosystems.

International Biological Flora: Tsuga canadensis*

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, EarlyView.
Eastern Hemlock is a long‐lived forest tree of eastern North America known for its deep shade and home given to many organisms. Despite surviving large‐scale clearing for agriculture when Europeans arrived, it returned to dominate when the land was abandoned in the mid 1800s.
