Stable Isotope Composition of Skin Layers Confirms Trophic Differentiation of Baird's and Sato's Beaked Whales (Berardius spp.) in the Western North Pacific. [PDF]
Rapid Commun Mass SpectromABSTRACT Rationale Closely related whale species can appear similar yet occupy distinct ecological niches. Sato's beaked whale (Berardius minimus) was only recently recognized as a separate species and was previously grouped with Baird's beaked whale (Berardius bairdii), limiting our understanding of their ecological differences.

Phylogeography of the Grassland Skipper <i>Ochlodes venatus</i> Supports the Hypothesis That This Japanese Grassland Insect Has a Long History. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThe key finding of this manuscript is that Ochlodes venatus, a species of Japanese grassland butterfly, inhabited Japan far earlier than previously known. This study estimates O. venatus was distributed in Japan at least 200,000 years ago. This provides crucial evidence that grassland organisms inhabited Japan much earlier than previously thought ...

Incorporating Phylogeography and SDM Projection to Inform Conservation Efforts of the Foundation Seaweed Gloiopeltis furcata sensu lato in the North Pacific Under Climate Change [PDF]
Evol ApplABSTRACT Understanding the impact of past climate events on population genetic structuring and range shifts may facilitate predictions of how species will respond to future climate change. Such integrative effort, however, remain rare for the North Pacific benthic ecosystem. Here, we obtained mtDNA cox1 and cpDNA rbcL sequences of 85 populations of the
