Current Distribution of the Turkestan White Stork (Ciconia ciconia asiatica) in Kazakhstan

International Journal of Zoology
Over the last 100 years, the range of the White Stork Ciconia ciconia asiatica (Linnaeus, 1758) in Kazakhstan has greatly diminished; it has entirely disappeared in its former eastern and northern ranges, while the number of nesting sites has decreased ...

Movement and Home Range of the Smooth Softshell Turtle (Apalone mutica): Spatial Ecology of a River Specialist

Diversity, 2019
Spatial ecological information is necessary to guide the conservation efforts of river turtles, but it is lacking for many species including the smooth softshell turtle (Apalone mutica). We investigated the spatial ecology of A.

Male-male competition and female choice are differentially affected by male call acoustics in the serrate-legged small treefrog, Kurixalus odontotarsus [PDF]

PeerJ, 2017
Background The evolution of exaggerated vocal signals in anuran species is an important topic. Males and females have both evolved the ability to discriminate communication sounds.

Herpetofaunal Diversity and Endemism Hotspots in Australia's Fire‐Impacted Subtropical Rainforests Show Fine‐Scale Variation Across Metrics and Taxa

Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 5, May 2026.
Herpetofaunal richness and endemism hotspots differ in subtropical rainforest. ABSTRACT Identifying biodiversity hotspots is a key strategy for prioritising conservation efforts. However, depending on the biodiversity measures or taxonomic groups used, different areas may be prioritised, especially at broader spatial scales.

Pronounced Genetic Structure Associated With Differences in a Reproductive Trait and Climatic Barriers in Canadian Populations of the Western Toad (Anaxyrus boreas)

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Identifying genetic groups within species' ranges is critical for inventorying diversity and delineating conservation units. For many North American amphibians, limited knowledge of genetic structure in Canada constrains effective conservation decision‐making.

Urbanization Shapes Dietary Composition and Snout Morphology of Salamanders

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 10, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Urbanization rapidly alters landscapes, generating habitat mosaics characterized by increased impervious surface, reduced soil moisture and diminished vegetation cover. These recurring urban environmental features are expected to reduce community diversity, favouring urban‐tolerant species, thereby promoting urban biotic homogenization ...

The Case of the Missing Green Iguana Predators: Reviews of Ecological Literature Should Go Beyond Google Scholar

The Bulletin of the Ecological Society of America, Volume 107, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Knowing about species interactions is essential for ecological research, conservation efforts, resource management, and maintaining healthy ecosystems, but many of these, such as reports of predation, may not always be published in easily located resources—if they are published at all.
