Height and phytotelm size affect the invertebrate communities of epiphytic bromeliads in the Amazon rainforest

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
The height at which epiphytic bromeliads are found affects the invertebrate community composition within them. The size of epiphytic bromeliads is positively correlated with species richness of both aquatic and terrestrial invertebrates. Whether bromeliads were found in primary or secondary forest did not have a significant effect on the community of ...

How much sampling is enough? Four decades of understorey bird mist‐netting across Amazonia define the minimum effort to uncover species assemblage structure

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Mist‐net sampling comprises a key methodological component of assemblage‐wide avifaunal studies, particularly in the understorey of closed‐canopy tropical forests. To investigate mist‐net bird captures and species assemblage structure, we compiled data from 312 sites across the Pan‐Amazon.

Cowbirds use conspecific social information to detect host nests in the wild

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Recent work shows that hosts of avian brood parasites use social information to increase egg rejection rates, but fewer studies explore how parasites themselves use such information to detect host nests in the wild. To determine whether wild Brown‐headed Cowbirds Molothrus ater use social information to detect host nests, we measured how individual ...

Testing the size‐grain hypothesis in a generalist predator: The case of an ant species in the Brazilian savannah

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, EarlyView.
In our recent study, we examined whether ants in the Brazilian Cerrado follow the “grain‐size hypothesis,” which proposes that larger ants should have proportionally longer legs to move efficiently across different environments. We used Ectatomma permagnum, a common predatory ant in the Cerrado, measuring hundreds of individuals collected from various ...

Beyond species means – the intraspecific contribution to global wood density variation

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Wood density is central for estimating vegetation carbon storage and a plant functional trait of great ecological and evolutionary importance. However, the global extent of wood density variation is unclear, especially at the intraspecific level. We assembled the most comprehensive wood density collection to date, including 109 626 records from

Assessing the Effect of Deservingness Cues on Tolerance for Administrative Burdens

open access: yesPolicy Studies Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Beneficiaries of public programs must overcome several administrative challenges. Given what we know about the politics of the welfare state, it seems likely that the public's willingness to support reductions in burdens may be associated with the characteristics of potential policy targets including their life circumstances and their race ...

All Social Comparisons are Local? Inequality, Coethnicity and Subjective Economic Position

open access: yesSwiss Political Science Review, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent studies have found that the self‐perceived, rather than the objective, economic position affects individual political behavior. But how do individuals self‐assess their own position? In this paper, we study how local conditions – local inequality and coethnicity – affect this self‐assessment.
