Rapid loss, and slow recovery, of coral reef structural complexity resulting from a prolonged marine heatwave

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Using Structure‐from‐Motion photogrammetry in a longitudinal study, we show that although coral reef habitat complexity had declined significantly by the end of the most prolonged tropical marine heatwave on record, no further losses were detected and 3 years later the reef had begun to recover this critical ecosystem function.

Niche occupancy of Jamaican bat caves: Diversity increases isotopic niche packing

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Tropical bat caves are home to hundreds of thousands of bats of multiple species. In Jamaica, we found that isotopic niche packing is the likely mechanism of coexistence at more diverse sites. Abstract There are over 1000 documented caves across Jamaica, many of them used by diverse communities of bats.

Paler within the city: Carotenoid‐based colouration covaries negatively with the proportion of impervious surface in great tit (Parus major) territories across Europe

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Across six European cities, great tits in more impervious territories had paler carotenoid‐based plumage, but not lower brightness or UV chroma. This suggests that urban habitat imperviousness is associated specifically with lower carotenoid pigment deposition, rather than broad changes in feather reflectance or structural quality.

Direct, but not indirect, predation‐risk cues deter larval settlement in a scyphozoan jellyfish

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Predators can shape population dynamics before consumption occurs, with prey using chemical information to guide larval settlement. We show that jellyfish larvae (Aurelia coerulea) respond selectively to predation‐risk cues, reducing settlement in response to predator presence and active predation cues, but not to residual cues from previously preyed ...

Effects of bleach on carcass postmortem microbiomes and necrophagous beetle carcass attendance and their internal microbiomes

Journal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Forensic entomology, and potentially microbiology in the future, can be used during death investigations to corroborate an estimated time since death. Instances where products are introduced to a cadaver, either in attempt to conceal or by accident, can affect decomposition and succession of associated decomposer taxa (i.e., insects and ...
