Subterranean environments contribute to three‐quarters of classified ecosystem services
ABSTRACT Beneath the Earth's surface lies a network of interconnected caves, voids, and systems of fissures forming in rocks of sedimentary, igneous, or metamorphic origin. Although largely inaccessible to humans, this hidden realm supports and regulates services critical to ecological health and human well‐being.

Abstract Biological invasions often generate complex ecological paradoxes, particularly when invasive species act as ecosystem engineers that simultaneously compete with and benefit native communities. Understanding these dual dynamics is critical for managing urban biodiversity.

We found that Western Fence Lizards experience higher detectability in burned areas but do not consistently darken or adjust perch use to enhance background matching, despite showing improved camouflage on darker substrates. These results suggest that lizards may face behavioral trade‐offs in post‐fire landscapes that could influence success.

Based on an analysis of eBird records, this study finds that the vocal patterns of tropical forest tinamous are primarily influenced by changes in daylength, with a secondary effect of precipitation. Birds sang more when days were longer or shorter than 12 h and during drier periods, especially in wetter regions.

The Influence of Habitat and Arthropods on Insectivorous Birds and Bats in Western Sarawak, Borneo [PDF]
Natural predation by insectivorous birds and bats has high potential to offer a sustainable solution to pest management in the oil palm plantations. This study aimed to determine the species assemblage, abundance, species richness and activity patterns ...

Gut Microbiome Communities Vary Across Translocated Populations of the Seychelles Warbler
Conservation translocations are an increasingly common tool used to help combat species extinction but their success is dependent on a wide range of abiotic and biotic factors. To date, the potential role of host‐associated microbiomes in translocation success has been overlooked despite their fundamental contribution to host health and fitness.

This study explores how habitat structure and seasonal variation shape bird diversity in the Tara Gedam Monastery church forest of Ethiopia. Across wet and dry seasons, 94 species were recorded, with abundance higher in the wet season but diversity remaining stable, underscoring the forest's role as a perennial refuge.
