Lords of the flies: dipteran migrants are diverse, abundant and ecologically important

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 4, Page 1635-1659, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Insect migrants are hugely abundant, with recent studies identifying the megadiverse order Diptera as the major component of many migratory assemblages. Despite this, their migratory behaviour has been widely overlooked in favour of more ‘charismatic’ migrant insects such as butterflies, dragonflies, and moths.

Effects of chronic browsing on life‐history traits of an irruptive large herbivore population

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, Volume 67, Issue 3, Page 265-282, July 2025.
This study aimed to determine the relationship between diet quality, body mass, and size (hind foot length), and female reproduction and sought to identify the mechanism by which high density under severe food limitations is maintained. Our results demonstrated that sika deer introduced to Nakanoshima Island have maintained high densities through high ...

Conference reports of the 7th (22-23 September 1993, Tromsö, Norway) and 8th (8-10 September 1994, Kaamanen, Finland) Nordic Workshops on Reindeer Research

open access: yesRangifer, 1995
The workshops (conferences) were held in Tromsø (1993) and Kaamanen (1994) each with about 70 participants. The main themes in Tromsø were "Reindeer - pastures and environment in the Barents Euro Arctic Region (BEAR)" and in Kaamanen "European Union (EU)

Elk and Deer Habituate to Stationary Deterrents in an Agricultural Landscape

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2025.
This study investigated the responses of Roosevelt elk (Cervus canadensis roosevelti) and black‐tailed deer (Odocoileus hemionus columbianus) to acoustic and visual deterrents on crop fields in the Cowichan Valley, British Columbia. Both species were most likely to flee and exhibit alertness in response to playbacks of human vocalizations, while ...

At the far end of everything: A likely Ahrensburgian presence in the far north of the Isle of Skye, Scotland

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, Volume 40, Issue 5, Page 847-861, July 2025.
ABSTRACT A Late Upper Paleolithic (LUP) site containing Ahrensburgian‐type stone tools has been discovered at South Cuidrach, Isle of Skye, Scotland. Together with a group of intertidal stone circular alignments also recently discovered on the island, this new evidence for the occupation of northern Scotland also represents the most northerly LUP site ...

Evaluating occurrence and abundance of displaying male American woodcock (Scolopax minor) north of the current Singing‐Ground Survey range

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 89, Issue 5, July 2025.
The American Woodcock Singing‐Ground Survey (SGS) may not cover all available woodcock breeding range, particularly in more northern regions. Using SGS data collected in Canada between 2000 and 2019, we evaluated the relationship between 16 landscape covariates and male woodcock occurrence and abundance and we developed a predictive map to identify ...

Who's the boss? Understanding the spatial relationship between snow leopard and Eurasian lynx in southern Mongolia

open access: yesWildlife Biology, Volume 2025, Issue 4, July 2025.
Interspecific competition, a fundamental ecological process characterized by negative interactions between species, plays a vital role in shaping ecological communities. Despite the co‐occurrence of the snow leopard Panthera uncia and the Eurasian lynx Lynx lynx across vast landscapes in Asia, their interactions remain poorly understood. In this study,

Seasonal fine‐scale resource selection of elk in the central Appalachian Mountains

open access: yesWildlife Biology, Volume 2025, Issue 4, July 2025.
Resource selection by animals varies depending on spatial and temporal context, thus it is important to account for these factors when conducting studies that examine this behavior relative to the availability and distribution of resources. Many resource selection studies combine fine‐scale animal location data obtained using global positioning system (
