Beyond the breeding grounds: identifying post‐breeding staging areas, corridors and ecological niche of the Lesser Kestrel

Ibis, EarlyView.
The post‐breeding period is a critical yet overlooked phase in the annual cycle of migratory birds, where individuals must resolve competing bioenergetic trade‐offs between recovery from breeding, moult and migratory fuelling. Using GPS data from 54 adult Lesser Kestrels Falco naumanni tracked across Spain, we analysed 76 post‐breeding tracks to ...

Dietary selectivity mediates niche overlap and interspecific competition in a reedbed warbler community in southern Europe

Ibis, EarlyView.
Sympatric species are expected to use resources differently along one or more ecological dimensions. This can be complex when there is partial separation along multiple dimensions, such as where bird species exhibit similarities in habitat use and diet.

Not all crickets are equal: selective shrike predation highlights the conservation value of diverse arthropod communities to grassland birds

Ibis, EarlyView.
Understanding dietary preferences and prey selection is pivotal for interpreting the ecology and conservation needs of threatened species. We investigated the diet composition and prey selection of the Red‐backed Shrike Lanius collurio in a montane grassland of the central Italian Apennines, with special regard to sex‐related differences and the ...

An AI‐assisted workflow for generating historical species distributions from avian museum specimens

Ibis, EarlyView.
The Earth's biodiversity is changing rapidly due to human activities. Natural history collections could help us better understand how and why biodiversity is changing but are grossly under‐used in this respect. Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to transform this situation by enabling us to unlock data associated with museum specimens more ...

Mapping wild bee diversity and flower use for an effective conservation of the Doñana biodiversity hotspot

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
We compiled the first checklist of wild bees in Doñana Protected Area, documenting 385 species, including three vulnerable and one endangered species listed in the Red List. Bee species exhibit diverse floral preferences, highlighting the need to incorporate plant–pollinator interactions and the role of plants in conservation and management strategies ...

Prevention and Management of Tooth Discolouration of Endodontic Origin (DEO): A State‐of‐the‐Art Review

International Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Tooth discolouration of endodontic origin (DEO) refers to an undesirable change in tooth colour arising from the pulp space as a result of reactive physiological processes, pathological processes or endodontic procedures and materials. As DEO frequently affects teeth in the aesthetic zone, it may substantially impair self‐esteem and

Divergent exploratory‐avoidant behavioural strategies may drive niche differentiation in juvenile Antarctic fishes

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract We used an ecological niche theory framework integrating physiological and behavioural ecology to understand interspecific differentiation of juveniles of four Antarctic fishes: Trematomus bernacchii, Trematomus pennellii, Trematomus nicolai and Pagothenia borchgrevinki.

Shark preferences: Only subtle effects of electromagnetic field exposure and substrate type on small‐spotted catshark (Scyliorhinus canicula) behaviour

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Offshore wind energy plays a crucial role in the transition to low‐carbon power generation. The expansion of offshore wind farms (OWFs) introduces anthropogenic electromagnetic fields (EMFs) from subsea power cables. Elasmobranchs, including sharks and rays, are sensitive to natural electric and magnetic fields used for navigation and prey ...

Structured Consensus‐Building to Improve Pressure Injury Prevention Interventions in Acute Medical‐Surgical Hospital Settings: A Nominal Group Technique Study

Journal of Clinical Nursing, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To gain consensus and prioritise barriers to effective pressure injury prevention for at‐risk patients and to collaboratively generate, discuss and recommend intervention strategies that could address these prioritised barriers in the acute medical‐surgical hospital context. Design Nominal Group Technique.
