Rolling pits of Hartmann’s mountain zebra (Zebra equus hartmannae) increase vegetation diversity and landscape heterogeneity in the Pre‐Namib

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 11, Issue 19, Page 13036-13051, October 2021., 2021
The dust‐bathing behavior of the Hartmann’s mountain zebra creates unique rolling‐pits that persist in the landscape. In contrast to the surrounding grassland, the rolling‐pits have finer soil with higher nutrient content, collect run‐off, show a higher infiltration and keep soil moisture longer.

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 12, Issue 1, January 2021., 2021
Abstract In ant–plant mutualistic interactions, plants provide shelter (domatia) and/or food to ants and in exchange, and ants provide protection against herbivores. After plant tissue senescence, ants are expected to abandon dead domatia, leaving these empty spaces available for other arthropods.

On Loneura crenata Navás and Loneura ocotensis García Aldrete (Psocodea, ‘Psocoptera’, Ptiloneuridae) [PDF]
