Cowbirds use conspecific social information to detect host nests in the wild

open access: yesIbis, Volume 168, Issue 2, Page 799-804, April 2026.
Recent work shows that hosts of avian brood parasites use social information to increase egg rejection rates, but fewer studies explore how parasites themselves use such information to detect host nests in the wild. To determine whether wild Brown‐headed Cowbirds Molothrus ater use social information to detect host nests, we measured how individual ...

General relativistic effects in large scale galaxy clustering

open access: yes
The size of galaxy redshift surveys has constantly increased over the latest years in terms of solid angle and redshift coverage; therefore, the future large-volume galaxy surveys (e.g. SKA, Euclid) will allow us to measure galaxy clustering on scales comparable with the Hubble radius.

Epidemiology and Genetics of Rheumatic Diseases Suggest a Constant Rate of DNA Damage as Underlying Cause

open access: yesImmunology, Volume 177, Issue 4, Page 736-748, April 2026.
A constant rate of DNA damage that is not perfectly repaired will cause a constant rate of DNA mutations. The chance of mutation will increase if DNA is prone to damage, such as occurs in somatic hypermutation (SHM) hotspots and GC‐rich DNA. Thus, if one mutation‐prone DNA site drives disease, the age of onset of disease and degree of penetrance should

Characterizing the Distribution and Behavior of Sperm Whales, Physeter macrocephalus, Over the Otago Submarine Canyons, New Zealand

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Sperm whales (Physeter macrocephalus) play an important role in marine ecosystems as top predators, nutrient vectors, and indicators of ecosystem health. In Aotearoa New Zealand, sperm whales remain largely understudied other than at Kaikōura, a foraging area for males.

Seasonal and Interannual Variation of Common Dolphin, Delphinus delphis, Density in Portuguese Waters

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Modeling a species' ecology and abundance provides important insights into its habitat preferences, population trends, and distribution. Here, we studied how environmental factors relate to common dolphin (Delphinus delphis) density in waters off mainland Portugal.
