On Mt. Cameroon, functional richness and taxonomic diversity decreased with elevation, while functional nearest neighbor distance, functional evenness, and mean nearest taxon distance showed positive trends. Traits related to resource use indicated that higher‐elevation species were functionally less similar than expected by chance, supporting ...

Studies on bird behavior have benefited from the miniaturization of tracking devices and the opportunities for massive data collection facilitated by extensive satellite and cellular infrastructures. However, assessments of the effects of tracking devices on the behavior and survival of birds are rarely conducted and disseminated – raising animal ...

Leeches exhibit a marked scope of diversity, including different kinds of symbiosis. The aim of the present study was to demonstrate through biochemical and histological analysis that a species of piscicolid leech, Myzobdella platensis, is a true parasite of blue crabs, feeding on their hemolymph and using them as a site for cocoon deposition.
