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 ...

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

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

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.
