Des chambres de pupation de Dermestidae (Insecta : Coleoptera) sur un os de mammifère tertiaire (phosphorites du Quercy) : implications taphonomiques et paléoenvironnementales

open access: yes, 2004
International audienceLes larves de certains Dermestidae (Coleoptera) sont capables de perforer les os d'une charogne pour former leur chambre de pupation. De telles cavités ont été identifiées sur un unciforme de rhinocérotidé (Mesaceratherium sp.) de l'

Exploring perceptions of Italian urban wildlife on TikTok

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1470-1484, May 2026.
Abstract In Western cities, some animals are valued for their beauty, rarity or usefulness, while others are dismissed as unwelcome. This distinction reflects the cultural meanings attached to each species and frequently conflicts with ecological priorities.

The Seasonal Impact of the Island Mass Effect on Coastal Biogeochemistry and Phytoplankton Assemblage: The Case of the Tropical and Volcanic Island of Guadeloupe (French West Indies)

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract The Island Mass Effect (IME) in tropical regions remains understudied, despite its potential to fertilize oligotrophic oceanic gyres and impact on higher trophic levels. Guadeloupe provides an ideal case study of IME due to its diverse nutrient sources, dual exposure to the Caribbean Sea on the western coast and Atlantic Ocean on the eastern ...

Global determinants of home range sizes in felids: Evidence of human disturbance impact

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 4, Page 697-711, April 2026.
This study is the first to demonstrate the influence of anthropogenic factors and species richness in felids on home range size across the entire felid taxon. Felids are a taxon of major interest in conservation biology, and gaining a comprehensive view of their spatial ecology will help derive global conservation recommendations.

Correcting Lipid Extraction Effects on Nitrogen Isotopic Values (δ15N) in Cetacean Skin

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Stable isotopes of carbon (δ13C) and nitrogen (δ15N) are widely used to study the feeding ecology of cetaceans, as they provide critical insights into diet and migratory behaviors. Lipids in tissues may bias the interpretation of δ13C. Because of this, lipids need to be extracted before measuring stable isotope ratios, but their removal may ...

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

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 3, March 2026.
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.
