Assemblage time series reveal biodiversity change but not systematic loss [PDF]

, 2014
Supported by the European Research Council (BioTIME 250189), the Scottish Funding Council (MASTS, grant reference HR09011) (M.D.), and the Royal Society (A.E.M.).The extent to which biodiversity change in local assemblages contributes to global ...

From steps to home ranges: How habitat disturbance influences the movement drivers of an arboreal primate

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Challenging the narrative about howler monkeys' high resilience to anthropogenic changes, our multiscale analysis reveals the costs of habitat disturbance to their movement ecology. We identify thermal limitations, reduced travel efficiency, and significant spatial saturation.

Eye Darkening Under Dehydration Stress in the Neotropical Frog Boana punctata (Schneider, 1799). [PDF]

J Exp Zool A Ecol Integr Physiol
Dehydration induces a strong and partially reversible increase in iris pigmentation in the Neotropical frog Boana punctata. The tight relationship between iris darkening and hydration state identifies ocular pigmentation as a simple, non‐invasive physiological biomarker with broad potential for assessing hydric stress in amphibian populations ...

Optimising daily sampling of plant–bee interaction networks

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Daily variation in ecological interaction networks is rarely quantified due to limited temporal sampling, yet network structure may change substantially within a single day. We show that plant–bee networks exhibit strong intraday shifts in composition and structure, and that sampling distributed across key daily periods better captures network ...

The ecomics of ecosystems and biodiversity: scoping the scale [PDF]

, 2008
The G8 decided in March 2007 to initiate a “Review on the economics of biodiversity loss”, in the so called Potsdam Initiative: 'In a global study we will initiate the process of analysing the global economic benefit of biological diversity, the costs of

Filtered, yet not homogenised: Urbanisation does not lead to cross‐city convergence in Mexican urban bird communities

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Urbanisation simplifies bird communities, but does not necessarily make urban avifaunas alike. Across three biogeographically distinct Mexican cities, urban bird assemblages remained regionally distinct despite strong local filtering. These results challenge assumptions of urban‐driven homogenisation and emphasise the dominant role of regional species ...

Bat community assembly in the ecotone of two neotropical biodiversity hotspots is determined by environmental filtering rather than historical factors

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
We demonstrate that environmental filtering is the primary mechanism shaping bat communities across the Cerrado–Atlantic Forest ecotone. By integrating phylogenetic diversity, environmental gradients, and coevolutionary assembly models, our study provides new insights into the processes maintaining biodiversity in a globally important transition zone ...
