Underestimation of avian diversity in the Tumbesian hotspot: Sampling gaps and conservation challenges

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
This study provides the first comprehensive reassessment of avian diversity in the Tumbesian region in over 30 years, documenting 931 species and identifying significant sampling gaps driven by geographic accessibility. We reveal a critical misalignment between biodiversity value and current protection coverage, particularly in humid forests which ...

Is Gillnet Prey Subsidizing Ontogenetic Diet Shifts and Early Weaning in Common Coastal Bottlenose Dolphins From the Southwestern Gulf of Mexico?

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Artisanal gillnet fisheries can concentrate prey and provide incidental food subsidies to marine predators, but their effects on early‐life foraging behavior and demography remain poorly resolved. The Alvarado bottlenose dolphin population that lives off the coast of Veracruz, Mexico, is well known for having chronic, frequent, and recurring ...

Growth and Overfishing Indicators Applied to the Protandrous Hermaphrodite Fat Snook (Centropomus parallelus) in the South Atlantic

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The fat snook Centropomus parallelus is a protandrous hermaphrodite teleost of artisanal and recreational value in the South Atlantic, vulnerable to fishing pressure and size‐selective gears. We evaluated exploitation status using size and age based overfishing indicators from recreational fishing championships and artisanal landings along the

A global perspective on the annual cycles of whimbrels

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Comparative analyses are central to understanding broad‐scale patterns in avian ecology, yet their application is often constrained by fragmented and uneven data availability. Recent advances in tracking technology have generated unprecedented insights into shorebird movements, resulting in numerous studies on single populations or flyways.

Insights into diet and niche separation in the context of prey availability between two sympatric whiprays in a tropical intertidal estuary

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Increasing evidence supports associations between various elasmobranch species and estuarine habitats, particularly during early life stages. However, with substantial knowledge gaps surrounding spatial habitat use and trophic ecology of estuary‐associated species in Australia, we cannot reliably assess the functional importance of these areas

Embryonic and larval development of the endangered Chiapas killifish Tlaloc hildebrandi (Cyprinodontiformes: Profundulidae)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The early ontogeny of endemic freshwater fishes provides essential baseline biological information for conservation and management, particularly in species with restricted distributions and high vulnerability to habitat degradation, environmental change and population decline. This study presents the first detailed description of embryonic and

Occupancy Baselines and Temporal Trends of Threatened Mammal Communities in Southeast Asian Mangroves [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
We analyzed long‐term camera‐trap monitoring data of rare threatened mammal species in Southeast Asian mangrove habitats. We applied a multi‐species hierarchical occupancy framework to estimate baseline occupancy and detection probabilities, habitat associations, anthropogenic effects and temporal trends.
