Climate stability drives multidimensional nestedness of amphibian assemblages in a Chinese sky island system

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The nested subset pattern (nestedness) has been widely used to explain species distributions in island and fragmented systems. Mountain sky islands serve as critical natural laboratories for understanding the evolutionary consequences of geographic isolation and climate

Nightmare egalitarianism: Commensuration, autonomy, and imagination Le cauchemar de l’égalitarisme : commensuration, autonomie et imagination

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Egalitarianism is often idealized, but many anthropologists have noted its potential for nightmare scenarios involving envy, mistrust, and violence. This introduction outlines a framework for understanding the negative emotions and violence associated with the forces of commensuration that are necessary to make people equal.

‘FROM GHETTO TO HABITUS FACTORY’ ROMA CAMPS IN ITALY: An Empirical Extension of Loïc Wacquant's Theorization

International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract In this article we apply Wacquant's conceptualization of the ghetto to an analysis of interviews conducted with Roma people living in the state‐enforced camps of Turin, Italy. We illustrate how the elements characterizing a ghetto according to Wacquant (i.e.

Three methods of estimating age‐at‐death using three different regions on the os coxa

Journal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding population diversity is necessary for the development of forensic anthropology methods that address population affinity. The commonly used age‐at‐death estimation methods for adult skeletal remains are based on American data sets, which include individuals with both European and African population affinities.

Co‐phylogeny and biogeography of the myrmecophilous beetle Paussus favieri (Carabidae, Paussinae) and its host ant Pheidole pallidula (Hymenoptera, Myrmicinae)

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Strict patterns of co‐divergence have rarely been documented other than among organisms and their symbionts. In this paper, using a molecular approach, we inferr the population‐level phylogenies of a Mediterranean ant species Pheidole pallidula and its nest parasite, the obligate myrmecophilous beetle Paussus favieri. We then investigate the role of co‐
