Antbears and underground melons: A highly specialized seed dispersal mutualism mediated by scent
Seed dispersal is critical for the establishment and persistence of populations of most plant species. We investigated the seed dispersal biology of an African melon, Cucumis humifructus, which is closely related to cultivated cucumbers and watermelons but differs in that it buries its fruits deep underground.

Evolutionary and demographic correlates of Pleistocene coastline changes in the Sicilian wall lizard Podarcis wagleriana [PDF]
Aim Emergence of coastal lowlands during Pleistocene ice ages might have provided conditions for glacial expansions (demographic and spatial), rather than contraction, of coastal populations of temperate species. Here, we tested these predictions in the

Incidental pollination by passing animals: An overlooked mechanism?
The conservation of pollinators is essential for sustaining the ecosystem services of pollen transfer, which support crop production, biodiversity conservation and ecosystem health. While primary pollinators have been the focus of most conservation efforts, subordinate or incidental pollinators have been largely overlooked.

Remotely sensing coral bleaching in the Red Sea
Coral bleaching, often triggered by oceanic warming, devastates coral reef systems, resulting in substantial alterations to biodiversity and ecosystem services. For conservation management, an effective technique is needed to not only detect and monitor coral bleaching events but also to predict their severity levels.
