Intra‐ and Interspecific Spatial Temporal Interactions Drive Habitat Selection of Three Sympatric Top Predators

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The population distribution and habitat selection of top predators are critically important for species conservation and habitat management. While previous studies have identified environmental characteristics and food resources as factors influencing animal habitat selection, the roles of potential intra‐ and interspecific competition have ...

Distribution, Habitat Use and Conservation of the Bornean Ferret Badger

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
The Bornean ferret badger (Melogale everetti) is an Endangered, range‐restricted carnivore whose ecology and distribution remain poorly known. Using multi‐site camera‐trap surveys across Sabah's western mountain massif combined with habitat suitability and connectivity modelling, we documented 407 detections from 60 stations, including the first ...

Canal Construction Disrupts Camouflage in Two Sympatric Estuarine Crab Species

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
Estuarine ecosystems provide essential habitats for fiddler crabs, whose survival heavily relies on background‐matching camouflage. Anthropogenic modifications such as canal construction can alter the visual properties of these habitats, yet direct empirical evidence of their impact on crustacean camouflage remains limited.

Habitat and Anthropogenic Determinants of Otter Presence in the Karnali River, Western Nepal

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
Despite increasing human pressures, otters persist along the Western Bend of the Karnali River. Occurrence of otters decreases with higher house density and presence of dogs. The study indicates otters tolerate some general human activity but strongly avoid settlements and dogs, highlighting the need for dog management, reduced settlement pressure, and

Emu (Dromaius novaehollandiae) diet is driven by the gradient of C3 and C4 plant availability

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Intraspecific variation in diet is often influenced by geographic location, resource availability, trophic position, or foraging specialization and can result in environmental changes exerting heterogeneous effects across the species' distribution.

Partial landslide occlusion of a valley river and the hydro‐climatological drivers of landslide‐lake ephemerality

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 6, June 2026.
Timeline of Te Horo lake presence and absence interspersed with unknown landscape periods between 2014 and 2025, noting the lifespan of initial formation 2014–2019, the 2020–2021 lake formation and the increasing volume of observations from 2017 onwards. Chronology reconstructed from satellite imagery.
