Visual Cues Can Alter the Behavioural Responses of Dragonfly Larvae to Chemical Alarm Cues
Ethology, EarlyView.Using a controlled experimental approach, we examined how chemical and visual cues influence antipredator behaviour in Aeshna cyanea larvae and tested whether risk‐related information can be socially transmitted among nearby conspecifics. Our results show that dragonfly larvae do not copy the antipredator responses of others, but visual cues alter how ...

Benefits of Lobster Translocation to Fishery Productivity and Economics in Tasmania
Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Large‐scale translocation of Southern Rock Lobsters, Jasus edwardsii, in Tasmania has been conducted for over two decades. This involves moving slow‐growing lobsters from deep‐water areas to inshore, warmer areas to increase growth rates and improve commercial characteristics, especially shell color.

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The American Lobster (Homarus americanus) is the target of an extensive fishery in the Northwest Atlantic, yet there is no systematic method for evaluating relative performance of baits for the fishery. We used Baited Remote Underwater Video (BRUV) to assess lobster attraction to commercial baits versus natural prey.

Ibis, EarlyView.Estimating and monitoring migratory bird populations involves significant challenges, even in the most well‐studied and easily‐counted species, and can be further complicated by long‐held but unverified assumptions and by shifting distributions in changing flyway conditions.

Stable isotope data indicate origins of mislabelled historical bird specimens
Ibis, EarlyView.Natural history specimens provide valuable insights across diverse research fields, but those needing more accurate metadata have limited scientific value. We applied stable isotope analysis to investigate the origin of 19th century Atlantic Forest bird specimens attributed to the northeastern Brazilian state of Pernambuco, which are the only records ...

Spatiotemporal Variation in Marine Mammal Antipredator Behaviors Resulting From a Predation Pinch Point. [PDF]
Ecol EvolUsing 17 years of biologging data from 353 adult female northern elephant seals, we explored how seals modified their use of time and space when moving through nearshore areas where predation risk is high. We found that seals tended to depart at night, arrive during the day, and perform benthic dives along the continental shelf.
