ABSTRACT Understanding how genetic diversity persists in populations subject to extreme demographic fluctuations and recurrent bottlenecks is a central question in evolutionary and population ecology. Cyclic species provide ideal models for investigating this ecological puzzle, as they allow testing how demographic phases shape genetic dynamics.

The macroecology of immunity: predominant influence of climate on invertebrate immune response
The immune system is the primary defense against parasites. With the ever‐increasing rate of disease, epidemiologic models considering geographic variation in immune responses could prove useful. Despite increasing interest in the macroecology of parasitism and infectious diseases, we know little about the macroecology of immune responses (i.e ...

Influence of watershed’s anthropogenic activities on fish nitrogen and carbon stable isotope ratios in nine French lakes [PDF]
The relationships between fish community δ15N and δ13C values and land use in watersheds and in buffer zones of nine French lakes were studied. The results showed inter-lakes variability of mean δ15N and δ13C values for different fish species.

Identifying the most effective criterion to assess the conservation status of vulnerable species in threatened tropical regions is crucial to evaluate recovery plans. We investigated the influence of environmental heterogeneity on the extent of occurrence (EOO), area of occupied habitat (AOH), and density variation of two Amazonian riparian frog ...

CLÔTURES, FINS ET FINALITÉS DANS QUELQUES COMÉDIES À SUJET MYTHIQUE [PDF]
La comédie est, surtout par la règle d’invention, assez peu adéquate aux sujets mythiques, lesquels sont matière de prédilection pour la tragédie. Il nous a paru donc d’autant plus intéressant d’étudier le fonctionnement d’un mythe dans quelques pièces ...

Investigating Hybridization between the Two Sibling Bat Species Myotis myotis and M. blythii from Guano in a Natural Mixed Maternity Colony. [PDF]
Because they can form seasonal mixed-species groups during mating and maternal care, bats are exciting models for studying interspecific hybridization. Myotis myotis and M.
