Evidence of natal habitat preference induction within one habitat type [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2016 Natal habitat preference induction (NHPI) is a mechanism for habitat selection by individuals during natal dispersal. NHPI occurs in wild animal populations, and evidence suggests it may be a common, although little studied, mechanism for post-dispersal habitat selection.

Habitat Imprinting and Natal Habitat Preference Induction
, 2019 In this article, what is currently understood about the role that early experience has in the formation of habitat preferences is reviewed. The umbrella concept, Natal Habitat Preference Induction (NHPI), which includes a number of effects that natal ...

Speciation: more likely through a genetic or through a learned habitat preference?
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2005 A problem in understanding sympatric speciation is establishing how reproductive isolation can arise when there is disruptive selection on an ecological trait.

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, 2022 Accurate evaluations of habitat preference are key to understanding optimal conditions for wildlife survival and reproduction. Habitat selection, however, usually is evaluated using a single index of preference, and congruence among multiple, relevant ...

Effects of frugivore preferences and habitat heterogeneity on seed rain: a multi-scale analysis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Seed rain mediated by frugivores is influenced by (1) the seed-deposition distances following fruit ingestion, (2) the disperser activity, as determined by its behaviour and habitat preferences, and (3) the structure of the habitat within the landscape ...

Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Organisms living in high‐elevation habitats are usually habitat specialists who occupy a narrow ecological niche. To envision the response of alpine species to a changing environment, it is fundamental to understand their habitat preferences on multiple ...

Diversity, 2021 Karstic landscapes are immense reservoirs of biodiversity and range-restricted endemism. Nowhere is this more evident than in the world’s third-largest vertebrate genus Cyrtodactylus (Gekkonidae) which contains well over 300 species.

Habitat preference and the marine-speciation paradox [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 2003 Marine organisms challenge the classical theories of local adaptation and speciation because their planktonic larvae have the potential to maintain high gene flow. The marine-speciation paradox is illustrated by contact zones between incipient species that are so large that allopatric divergence seems unlikely.

Quantifying habitat preference of bottom trawling gear [PDF]
, 2021 Continental shelves around the world are subject to intensive bottom trawling. Demersal fish assemblages inhabiting these shelves account for one-fourth of landed wild marine species.
