Burrow Selection by Temminck's Ground Pangolins (Smutsia temminckii) in Northern Botswana

open access: yesAfrican Journal of Ecology, Volume 64, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT In arid and semi‐arid environments, many species use underground burrows for thermoregulation, reproduction, and to reduce predation risk. In Botswana, Temminck's ground pangolins (Smutsia temminckii) shelter in burrows during the day, and burrow density is thought to be a key indicator of habitat suitability for these animals.

Ecological Niche Differences Underlie the Assembly of Endemic Birds in Acrobiont Forests of Northern Mesoamerica

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim The study of the structure of species assemblages has typically assumed that similar environments share common species; however, interacting biogeographic and phylogenetic processes are equally important. The understanding that ecological processes operate at different spatial scales to shape species assemblages led to the concept of ...

High‐throughput classification and quantification of skinning phenotype in sweet potatoes

open access: yesThe Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 8, Issue 1, December 2025.
Abstract Sweet potatoes (SPs) (Ipomoea batatas) are a valued crop for their color, flavor, and nutrition. Harvesting is labor‐intensive, requiring hand‐picking to maintain skin quality. Mechanical harvesting often causes skin damage, known as “skinning,” where skin is cut, scraped, or torn, leading to lower quality during packing.
