Time‐stressed Bar‐tailed Godwits exploit novel prey during migratory fuelling
Long‐distance migratory birds breeding in the Arctic face challenges as earlier snowmelt shifts the timing of vital resources. To keep up with these advancements, birds will need to modify their migration. Higher fuelling rates during stopover have been identified as a critical mechanism for accelerating migration, but this requires adequate food ...

Spatial distribution of annelids in the intertidal zone in Sao Sebastiao Channel, Brazil
We studied the spatial distribution of annelids in the intertidal zone of two beaches (Engenho d´Água and São Francisco) in São Sebastião Channel, southeastern Brazil, from August 1995 through July 1996. This region is commonly affected by oil spills and

Abstract Increasing evidence supports associations between various elasmobranch species and estuarine habitats, particularly during early life stages. However, with substantial knowledge gaps surrounding spatial habitat use and trophic ecology of estuary‐associated species in Australia, we cannot reliably assess the functional importance of these areas

ABSTRACT Kudoa thyrsites is a myxosporean parasite that infects the skeletal muscle of various teleost fish species globally. Severe infections lead to ‘soft flesh’ in fish fillets, resulting in food spoilage and subsequent discard. While K. thyrsites has previously been identified in migratory Atlantic mackerel in the northern Northeast Atlantic Ocean,

Finding Dr Florence Buchanan: The recovered face and fuller life story of a scientific legend
Abstract Dr Florence Buchanan (1867–1931) was one of physiology's foundational women. Trained as a zoologist at University College London (UCL), she became an exacting physiologist whose studies of muscle bioelectricity, reflexes, cardiac rhythm and exercise helped shape twentieth‐century physiology.
