Living on the edge: Habitat characteristics of northern myotis at the periphery of its distribution

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Northern myotis selected tall trees with minimal decay, in patches with other roosting options. In our study area, these trees occurred in narrow bands within an agricultural matrix, differing from contiguous forest at the core of the species' distribution. Nevertheless, bats selected the tallest trees in the densest patches available.

The integrated reproductive response: the scope for seasonal phenotypic flexibility shapes reproductive outcomes across fish populations

Oikos, EarlyView.
Across north‐temperate environments, rapid environmental change has disrupted the seasonal life histories of resident organisms, decreasing the reliability of environmental cues. Flexible responses capable of buffering the effects of unpredictable environmental variation to defend performance and reproductive outcomes may thus be key to species‐ and ...
