Developing and adult reef fish show rapid light‐induced plasticity in their visual system

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 32, Issue 1, Page 167-181, January 2023., 2023
Abstract The visual capabilities of fish are optimized for their ecology and light environment over evolutionary time. Similarly, fish vision can adapt to regular changes in light conditions within their lifetime, e.g., ontogenetic or seasonal variation.

Machine learning models accurately predict clades of proteocephalidean tapeworms (Onchoproteocephalidea) based on host and biogeographical data

open access: yesCladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract Proteocephalids are a cosmopolitan and diverse group of tapeworms (Cestoda) that have colonized vertebrate hosts in freshwater and terrestrial environments. Despite the ubiquity of the group, key macroevolutionary processes that have driven the group's evolution have yet to be identified.

Global drivers of the conservation–invasion paradox

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The conservation–invasion paradox (CIP) refers to a long‐term phenomenon wherein species threatened in their native range can sustain viable populations when introduced to other regions. Understanding the drivers of CIP is helpful for conserving threatened species and managing invasive species, which is unfortunately still lacking. We compiled

Ten relevant questions for applying biodiversity offsetting in the Pantanal wetland

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Here, we formulated 10 questions that discuss and illustrate how offsetting can be applied to maintain wetland integrity, economic fairness, and biodiversity conservation in the Pantanal and Upper Paraguay River basin (UPRB) We provided examples of offsetting implementation opportunities, analyze spatial compliance deficits, and illustrate requirements
