Anadromous Nunavik Arctic charr (Salvelinus alpinus) during the upstream migration in the Aipparusik (Bérard) River in September 2017, Tasiujaq, Québec, Canada. Sampled female Arctic charr from this population and two other populations in Nunavik were jointly analyzed to estimate their length‐at‐maturity. This was achieved with the analysis of discrete

Inferring Endozoochory From Ingestion to Germination Through Biological Filters: Brown Bear Feces as a Case Study. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Our study investigated the combined effect of methods and endozoochorous filters (ingestion, mastication, gut passage and fecal matrix) on the inference of endozoochory. Our results highlighted differences according to the method used on the inference of endozoochory in terms of number of taxa and plant life forms, while inducing variable reliability ...

Linking anatomical diversity with functional life strategies in a liana community of central Africa. [PDF]

New Phytol
Summary Studying lianas involves unique challenges due to their high functional diversity. Despite their prominence in tropical forests, gaps in the understanding of anatomical organisation affect interpretations of their co‐existing functional strategies.

Influence of funding fads and donor interests on international aid for conservation in Madagascar. [PDF]

Conserv Biol
Abstract Tens of billions of dollars in official development assistance have been spent over the past three decades to address the increasingly rapid loss of biodiversity globally. Despite this expenditure, detailed knowledge of who has provided these funds and who has used them, for what purpose, where, why, and with what consequences remains limited.

Behavioural tactics across thermal gradients align with partial morphological divergence in brook charr. [PDF]

J Anim Ecol
Our study reveals that brook charr adopt distinct ‘warm’ and ‘cool’ behavioural tactics to balance foraging and thermal stress in stratified lakes. By linking fine‐scale thermal movements to morphology, we show how temperature‐driven habitat use promotes individual specialization and potential ecotypic divergence under climate change.

Climate and Socio-Sexual Environment Predict Interpopulation Variation in Chemical Signaling Glands in a Widespread Lizard. [PDF]

Integr Zool
High phenotypic variation in femoral pore number across 55 populations of Podarcis muralis is best explained by a combination of positive allometry (size) and the local intensity of sexual selection (sexual dimorphism in body size, SSD) or local climatic conditions, notably temperature and vegetation density.
