Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 6, Issue 4, October–December 2025.Citizen scientists and an expert jointly monitor Biomphalaria snails (the intermediate host of Schistosoma mansoni) in rural areas of southwest Uganda, generating over 4500 georeferenced records. By comparing expert‐ and citizen‐based distribution models under perfect and imperfect detection, we demonstrate that site type and NDVI consistently ...

Reduced Offspring Viability Is Associated With Long‐Term Stability of a Narrow Avian Hybrid Zone
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 9, September 2025.We investigated hybrid viability in a tropical, avian hybrid zone governed by strong selection on male secondary sexual traits between the white‐collared manakin (Manacus candei) and golden‐collared manakin (M. vitellinus). We assessed putative hybrid fitness by investigating adult survival and hatching success along with a prospective selective ...

An interdisciplinary approach to improving conservation outcomes for parasites
Conservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 1, February 2025.Abstract Parasites represent a significant proportion of Earth's biodiversity and play important roles in the ecology and biology of ecosystems and hosts, making them an important target for conservation. Despite increasing calls to prioritize protection for parasites in the academic literature, they remain undervalued and underrepresented in global ...
