Can Food Acquisition Priority Alter Emotion, Physiological Responses, and Social Rank in Fish?

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We tested whether a cichlid fish perceives inequitable food distribution by manipulating feeding order. Priority‐fed individuals consumed more, had higher condition factors, and exhibited lower whole‐body cortisol than delayed‐fed fish, while personality, metabolism, dopamine, and social rank did not differ.

The First Quantitative Evidence of Ontogenetic Growth in the Early Cambrian Ecdysozoan Worm Cricocosmia jinningensis Reveals the Earliest Energy Reallocation

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We report the first ontogenetic information for the compression‐preserved Cambrian ecdysozoan worm Cricocosmia jinningensis. Its mosaic growth strategy unifies panarthropod and priapulid developmental patterns. Sclerite allometry reverses at the juvenile‐to‐adult transition, providing the earliest evidence of developmental resource allocation ...

Nocturnal Behavior of Wintering Common Cranes (Grus grus) Under Varying Environmental Conditions

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
For diurnal species, nighttime represents a critical ecological boundary. Understanding the ecological determinants of nocturnal activity in taxa traditionally regarded as inactive after dusk is essential for elucidating the adaptive significance of nighttime behavior. We examined how night phase, nocturnal brightness (moon illumination and cloud cover)

Volatile Compounds in Feathers of the Scarlet Macaw (Ara macao) Reflect Sex and Pair‐Bond Status

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Scarlet macaws exhibit sex‐ and pair‐related differences in plumage volatile composition, with males showing greater chemical richness. Partnered individuals differ in specific compound classes, whereas no clear association with immune function was detected. These results support a potential role for olfactory cues in sexual and social communication in

From Evolutionary Genomics to Conservation Action: Gibbon as a System for Integrative Primate Genomics

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This review synthesizes gibbon genomic research to propose a framework from evolutionary reconstruction and multidimensional vulnerability assessment to conservation intervention and long‐term dynamic monitoring. We clarify the supporting role of genomic evidence in conservation decision‐making and delineate a practicable pathway for integrating ...

Life Under the Snow: Camera Trap Videos Capture Year‐Round Lemming Activity and Behavior

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We developed an automated camera system capable of recording year‐round videos of lemmings beneath the snow in the High Arctic. We demonstrate the potential of this system to document lemming activity and behaviors. Our results show that it effectively monitors lemming relative abundance with temporal precision unmatched by other methods.

Chromosome‐Level Genome Assembly of Strauchbufo raddei and Multi‐Omic Insights Into Drought Adaptation

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding how amphibians adapt to terrestrial and arid environments is important for elucidating vertebrate terrestrialization. In this study, we present the first chromosome‐level, high‐quality genome assembly of Strauchbufo raddei, constructed using PacBio HiFi long‐read sequencing and Hi‐C scaffolding. The assembled genome is 4.47 Gb in
