Living on the edge: how philopatry maintains adaptive potential [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2013
Without genetic variation, species cannot cope with changing environments, and evolution does not proceed. In endangered species, adaptive potential may be eroded by decreased population sizes and processes that further reduce gene flow such as ...

Two decades of genetic profiling yields first evidence of natal philopatry and long-term fidelity to parturition sites in sharks [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, 2014
Sharks are a globally threatened group of marine fishes that often breed in their natal region of origin. There has even been speculation that female sharks return to their exact birthplace to breed ('natal philopatry'), which would have important ...

All-offspring natal philopatry in a Neotropical bat

open access: yesAnimal Behaviour, 2011
Natal dispersal is a strategy employed by individuals to avoid reproducing with close relatives. In most bats, incestuous matings are prevented by the departure of one sex; thus, all-offspring philopatry has rarely been recorded in these mammals.

Male philopatry in spider monkeys revisited

American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 2013
ABSTRACTDispersal patterns are critical for understanding social systems as they influence social interactions and relationships. Spider monkeys (Atelesspp.) are typically described as being characterized by male philopatry and female dispersal, with these patterns reflected in stronger affiliative and cooperative relationships among males than among ...

Detectability, philopatry, and the distribution of dispersal distances in vertebrates

Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 1996
Dispersal is of central importance to population biology, behavioral ecology and conservation. However, because field studies are based on finite study areas, nearly all dispersal distributions for vertebrates currently available are biased, often highly so.

Male Philopatry in Mallards

The Condor, 1990
Most North American ducks (Anatini) form pair-bonds on wintering areas or during spring migration (Hochbaum 1944, Rohwer and Anderson 1988). Females generally select new mates each year with males following females homing to their natal areas (Lincoln 1939, Sowls 1955, Johnson and Grier 1988).
