Evidence of parental care as a newly identified reproductive isolating barrier

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Behavioural variation can contribute to reproductive isolation and can be an important driver of speciation. Here, we show that a previously undescribed mechanism, parental care, can function as a postzygotic reproductive isolating barrier when dysregulated in hybrids.

Contrasting associations between parental coordination and breeding success in albatrosses across differing environmental contexts

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Our study demonstrates that the benefits of parental coordination in albatrosses are context‐dependent rather than universal. Coordinated parental care enhanced reproductive success in stable environments, but had little effect in variable environments, where individual flexibility may be more valuable.

Host‐mediated filtering and interspecific associations structure strongyle parasite communities in Sable Island horses

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Using individual‐level nemabiome metabarcoding of 3147 samples from 916 horses on Sable Island over 10 years, we generate the largest dataset of its kind to date. This unprecedented scale enables a rare test of the processes structuring parasite communities in a natural system, revealing dominant host‐mediated filtering and predominantly positive ...

Fronting in Old Catalan: Asymmetries between Narration and Reported Speech1

open access: yesTransactions of the Philological Society, Volume 123, Issue 1, Page 1-28, March 2025.
Abstract This article explores the distribution, syntax, and information structure of XVS clauses in the narrative text and the reported speech of a thirteenth‐century Old Catalan chronicle, the Llibre dels Fets. It is shown that XVS occurs mainly within reported speech and in embedded clauses.

Mapping diversity through geographical, environmental and attribute spaces

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding biodiversity patterns requires integrating information across the interrelated dimensions that organize life. Species occupy specific regions in geographic space, respond to environmental conditions and vary within attribute (or trait) spaces that are shaped by their ecological and evolutionary histories.
