Differences in sagittal otoliths between two morid species: insights into the genus Physiculus (Moridae: Gadiformes)

open access: yesNeotropical Ichthyology
Sagittae are widely used as tools in taxonomic and ecological studies of fishes, especially when external morphological characters are conserved or ambiguous. We analyzed morphological variation between two congeneric species of Physiculus: P.

Stable Isotope Composition of Skin Layers Confirms Trophic Differentiation of Baird's and Sato's Beaked Whales (Berardius spp.) in the Western North Pacific. [PDF]

open access: yesRapid Commun Mass Spectrom
ABSTRACT Rationale Closely related whale species can appear similar yet occupy distinct ecological niches. Sato's beaked whale (Berardius minimus) was only recently recognized as a separate species and was previously grouped with Baird's beaked whale (Berardius bairdii), limiting our understanding of their ecological differences.

Assessment of a Social Media-Based Method for Determining Raptor Diet. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
This study mined social media as a citizen science method to reduce the time burden and biases associated with recording accurate diet information for predators. In total, 1985 prey observations were recorded of two Australian coastal raptors and were used to produce diet profiles that were compared by region, social media platform, and against other ...

Design and Validation of an Open-Close Device for Integrated Environmental DNA Sampling Detects A Depth Gradient in Indian Ocean Deep-Sea Fish Assemblages. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
The goal of this study was to leverage existing survey technology to design and test an eDNA sampler that captures an integrated eDNA sample over the length of a deep‐water transect. We provide a biological interpretation of the resulting data, demonstrating the usefulness of such technology to understand the ocean environments, using fish species as ...

The Motion Picture: Leveraging Movement to Enhance AI Object Detection in Ecology. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
As AI methods become increasingly popular to automatically analyse ecology data, we investigate using movement information as a means to improve traditional object detection approaches (which are limited to static image information only) on over 35,000 annotated images from 1480 terrestrial, marine and freshwater locations, the most extensive ...
