Skeletal pathologies in extant crocodilians as a window into the paleopathology of fossil archosaurs

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Crocodilians, together with birds, are the only extant relatives to many extinct archosaur groups, making them highly important for interpreting paleopathological conditions in a phylogenetic disease bracketing model. Despite this, comprehensive data on osteopathologies in crocodilians remain scarce.

The impact of urbanisation on social behaviour: a comprehensive review

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Urbanisation is a key driver of global environmental change and presents animals with novel stressors and challenges. It can fundamentally influence social behaviour and has the potential to reshape within‐ and between‐species social interactions. Given the role of social behaviour in reproductive fitness and survival, understanding how social

Long‐term trends in parasite diversity and infection levels: approaches and patterns

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Parasites exist in every ecosystem, affecting nearly all organisms and playing a complex role in human societies. On the one hand, they contribute substantially to biodiversity and support ecosystem stability by performing essential ecological functions.

Deep learning-based detection and viability assessment of Eimeria oocysts

open access: yesPoultry Science
Coccidiosis, caused by Eimeria species, is a significant disease affecting the poultry industry worldwide, leading to substantial economic losses due to reduced flock performance. Effective vaccination strategies require the precise quantification of the

Shaping research in marine functional connectivity for integrated and effective marine science and management

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Effective knowledge of ecological connectivity at sea and at the land–sea interface is key to supporting global policy goals to conserve and restore ocean biodiversity and function. However, a persistent lack of commonality in terminology and understanding around the concept of connectivity in marine ecological studies hampers its integration ...

The spread of non‐native species

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The global redistribution of species through human agency is one of the defining ecological signatures of the Anthropocene, with biological invasions reshaping biodiversity patterns, ecosystem processes and services, and species interactions globally.

PARasites in Organic Livestock: innovative solutions to new challenges [PDF]

open access: yes
Parasites are ubiquitous in livestock in general and organic livestock in particular due to manage-ment factors promoting transmission (pastures/outdoor runs, plenty of bedding, restrictive use of parasiticides).

The impacts of biological invasions

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Natural Infection by Fasciola hepatica in Red Deer (Cervus elaphus) from NW Spain: The Usefulness of Necropsy, Coprology, and Three Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assays for the Diagnosis

open access: yesAnimals
The objective of this study was to investigate the epidemiology of Fasciola hepatica in Cervus elaphus kept in natural conditions in the Riaño Regional Hunting Reserve, north-west of Spain, where several species of domestic and wild animals coexist.
