A cosmopolitan parasite of Rattus in the Galápagos rodents raises conservation concerns

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
We draw attention to a recent study that identified the invasive nematode Mastophorus muris, typically associated with Rattus, infecting two endemic Galápagos rats on islands where no invasive rodents have been previously recorded. This unexpected finding raises concerns about undetected rodent introductions and highlights the urgent need for ...

A narrative review of the impact of anthropogenic light and noise on owls

open access: yesIbis, Volume 168, Issue 1, Page 5-24, January 2026.
Today, owls are exposed to increasingly brightly lit nights and noisy environments because of human activities. To understand the impacts of artificial light at night (ALAN) and anthropogenic noise we performed an evidence synthesis. We searched four literature databases and Google Scholar and we collected 39 relevant articles (1945–2024) providing 125

Combining transient dynamics and logistic‐asymptotic growth to study the recovery of two seabird populations after rat eradication

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, Volume 67, Issue 4, Page 310-335, October 2025.
This study examines the demographic dynamics of two seabird populations on Tromelin Island, 15 years after the eradication of brown rats. The results indicate that these populations are in good health and are expected to continue growing until breeding sites are saturated in about a century.

DeepForestVision: Automated wildlife identification for camera traps of African tropical forests

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 6, Issue 4, October–December 2025.
Chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) observed on camera trap in Kibale National Park, Uganda. This frame was extracted from a 30 s video classified as chimpanzee by DeepForestVision with a confidence score of 0.99 (©Sebitoli Chimpanzee Project). Abstract Tropical forests are rich in biodiversity but face the rapid loss of their wildlife due to increasing ...

High‐throughput microfluidic real‐time PCR as a promising tool in disease ecology

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 94, Issue 9, Page 1625-1637, September 2025.
This work highlights the diversity of disease ecology questions Htrt PCR could contribute to addressing in a given host–pathogen ecosystem. This tool could be used to answer a broad set of basic and applied questions in animal ecology, notably by providing a way to address issues involving communities of hosts and communities of pathogens.

All you can eat: Artificial feeding sites affect large herbivores and their predator in a human‐dominated landscape

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract The re‐expansion of large mammals in European human‐dominated landscapes poses new challenges for wildlife conservation and management practices. Supplementary feeding of ungulates is a widespread practice with several motivations, including hunting, yet the known effects on target and non‐target species have yet to be disentangled.

The untapped potential of camera traps for farmland biodiversity monitoring: current practice and outstanding agroecological questions

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, Volume 11, Issue 3, Page 243-254, June 2025.
Through a systematic literature review, we show that camera traps (CTs) have been underutilised for farmland biodiversity monitoring. The few existing farmland‐based CT studies focused on local‐level management issues, such as disease transmission between wildlife and livestock, crop damage and use of artificial feeders and water troughs by wildlife ...

Population dynamics and morphometrics of Nile monitors along a gradient of urbanization in KwaZulu‐Natal, South Africa

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, Volume 326, Issue 1, Page 23-36, May 2025.
We used mark‐resight and baited camera traps to compare population density and demographics of Nile monitors (Varanus niloticus) on a gradient of land use, namely a golf course, a farm and a nature reserve in KwaZulu‐Natal, South Africa, during 2022–2023. We also collected detailed morphometrics on 112 Nile monitors throughout KwaZulu‐Natal.

Un projet du CNRS en cours de réalisation : L'informatisation du Petit Larousse 1905 et d'une collection millésimée et séculaire [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Cet article a pour but de faire le point sur le projet d'informatisation du Petit Larousse 1905, et d'en expliciter les motivations. Nous revenons dans cet article sur les raisons de l'informatisation des dictionnaires en général, et sur l'intérêt d ...
