Predicting areas of wildlife damage can reduce long‐term costs. We developed and tested models of the geographic distribution of damage by woodpeckers to utility infrastructure and delineated areas of greater importance. Abstract Predicting areas of wildlife damage to human development has the potential to reduce long‐term costs associated with ...

A 14‐year‐old individual presented with an uncorrected bicoronal craniosynostosis that was diagnosed during clinical examination. She had craniofrontonasal syndrome (CFNS) with facial dysmorphology, microcephaly, and mild intellectual disability. Her CFNS was explained by a likely pathogenic variant in EFNB1.

Cave Dependency Limits Climate‐Driven Range Shifts in African Cave‐Roosting Bats
ABSTRACT Climate and land‐use change threaten the persistence of Africa's cave‐roosting bats, yet their future distributions remain poorly understood. We present the first continental‐scale assessment of climate‐driven range shifts for cave‐dwelling bats in sub‐Saharan Africa, using Miniopteridae as an obligate cave‐dependent model taxon, by ...

Forecasting the Risk of Reinvasion by the Giant African Snail in Ogasawara, Japan
This study used SDMs constructed in multiple regions to predict the suitable habitats of Achatina fulica on Chichijima in the Ogasawara Islands. The model constructed on another island with a wide distribution range showed the highest predictive accuracy.

How do ecologists estimate occupancy in practice?
Over 20 years ago, ecologists were introduced to the site occupancy model (SOM) for estimating occupancy rates from detection‐nondetection data. In the ensuing decades, the SOM and its hierarchical modeling extensions have become mainstays of quantitative ecology, and estimating occupancy rates has become one of the most common applications of ...

ABSTRACT Aim To investigate the ecological and evolutionary mechanisms driving biodiversity in the Indo‐Malayan hotspots, with a particular focus on the roles of ancient hybridisation and historical climate in shaping species diversity. Location The Indo‐Malayan realm, particularly the Western Ghats‐Sri Lanka and Indo‐Burma biodiversity hotspots.
