How do parasites and predators choose their victim? A trade‐off between quality and vulnerability across antagonistic interactions

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT From blood‐sucking lice and food‐stealing gulls to pandemic‐inducing viruses and egg‐eating snakes: parasites and predators are ubiquitous in shaping ecology and evolution. Fundamental to these interactions is the way in which parasites and predators choose their victim. Here, I argue that a trade‐off between host quality and vulnerability can

Ecosystem services provided by spiders

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Spiders, ubiquitous and abundant predators in terrestrial ecosystems, often are the subjects of an unjust negative perception. However, these remarkable creatures stand as unsung heroes within our ecosystems, contributing a multitude of ecosystem services critical to human well‐being.

Plasticity in climate change responses

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recent research has shown that climate change can both induce and modulate the expression of plastic traits but our understanding of the role of phenotypic plasticity as an adaptive response to climate change is limited. In this review, we dissect the mechanisms and impact of phenotypic plasticity as a response to accumulating climatic ...

Animal medical systems from Apis to apes: history, recent advances and future perspectives

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Animal medical systems encompass a wide range of behaviours aimed at maintaining or improving health. It has become clear that these behaviours are not limited to animals treating themselves (self‐medication) but also include the treatment of group members, resulting in the adoption of the more inclusive term “animal medication”.
