Impacts of invasive rats on Hawaiian cave resources
International Journal of Speleology, 2020 Although there are no published studies and limited data documenting damage by rodents in Hawaiian caves, our incidental observations during more than 40 years of surveying caves indicate that introduced rodents, especially the roof rat, Rattus rattus ...

Interspecific competitive interactions between Rattus norvegicus and R. rattus [PDF]
, 2010 Interspecific competition is observed when one species experiences reduced survivorship or fecundity, due to another controlling access to resources either through being superior at harvesting a shared resource (exploitation competition), or physically ...

Tracheal chambers as a key innovation for high‐frequency emission in bat echolocation
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Key innovations are pivotal for biodiversity and facilitating evolutionary success, enabling organisms' adaptation to various ecological niches through the diversification of phenotypic traits. In mammals, notable adaptations include evolving hypsodonty for grazing on grasses and, for bats, evolving echolocation and wing acquisition.

Fascicle measurement methods do result in lengths that are significantly different
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.A recent comparison of the most prevalent methods for measuring fascicles, in situ measurement versus chemical digestion, concluded that the measurements are indistinguishable based on data from different conspecific individuals. However, our study of contralateral muscles of the same individuals shows that the methods clearly result in statistically ...

Effect of grazing on ship rat density in forest fragments of lowland Waikato, New Zealand [PDF]
, 2010 Ship rat (Rattus rattus) density was assessed by snap-trapping during summer and autumn in eight indigenous forest fragments (mean 5 ha) in rural landscapes of Waikato, a lowland pastoral farming district of the North Island, New Zealand.
