The former distribution of White‐tailed Eagles in Iberia, the Mediterranean and the Middle East: a case study of the importance of understanding historical distribution in informing current conservation and restoration interventions

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
The importance of considering historical data in developing conservation and restoration measures for individual species and for wider ecological restoration has been pointed out by recent reviews but often remains neglected in practice. This paper provides a case study illustrating the issue through a review of the former breeding distribution of the ...

Analysis of the concentrations of steroid hormones and the expressions of related genes in follicles at 6 h prior to ovulation in White King pigeon

open access: yesItalian Journal of Animal Science
In poultry, ovulation is governed by steroid hormones: follicular granulosa cells (GCs) secrete progesterone (P4), while theca cells (TCs) produce oestradiol (E2) and testosterone (T), which interact and transform, with characteristic surges pre ...

How L2 Learners Negotiate Meaning in GenAI‐Supported Creative Writing

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This qualitative study explores how second language (L2) learners negotiate meaning and co‐construct knowledge with generative AI (GenAI) in a 12‐week multimodal creative writing project. Chinese middle school students (N = 75) created English picture books using a conversational GenAI agent supporting textual and text‐to‐image generation.

The pectoralis muscle orientation as an indicator of the modes of wing‐propelled locomotion in birds

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The pectoralis orientation of birds was consistent with the orientation of the aerodynamic force acting on the wing, varying by wing‐propelled locomotion (WPL) mode. The skeletal morphology unique to each WPL mode, related to the origin/insertion of the pectoralis, may be associated with these functional demands of pectoralis orientation.

The Dynamics of Pharyngeal Shortening in Healthy Swallowing: Effects of Sex, Age, Bolus Volume and Consistency

open access: yesJournal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Pharyngeal shortening can be indexed by tracking the location of the upper oesophageal sphincter (white star) relative to the cervical spine, with segments numbered according to an extended VERT scale with three segments per vertebra and one segment for each intervertebral space from C7 to C2.

Repurposing Bird Bycatch From Camera Traps in Urban Landscapes: A Correlate of Avian and Mammalian Richness?

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, EarlyView.
Here, we evaluated the ecological value of bird detections obtained opportunistically from camera traps by comparing them with standardized point count surveys conducted in 2023–2024, across the metropolitan area of Firenze, central Italy, and explored their potential to indicate broader urban biodiversity patterns through cross‐taxa relationships with
