When troglobites set the rules: How cave‐restricted species shape community responses in the richest tropical subterranean hotspot

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Troglobites strongly shape community responses to environmental gradients, weakening patterns when excluded from analysis. High beta diversity dominated by species replacement, driven by distance from entrance and microclimatic factors. Resource availability and microclimate stability are key to maintaining this subterranean biodiversity hotspot ...

Caste‐Associated Social Context Modulates Behavioural Interactions With Insecticide‐Exposed Individuals in Nasutitermes corniger (Termitidae: Nasutitermitinae)

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Termites are eusocial insects that maintain cohesion and exchange information through frequent physical interactions among nestmates. This social organisation underlies the principle of horizontal insecticide transfer, which is widely exploited as a termite control strategy.

Modelling compressive loading in large‐bodied mammals reveals distinct biomechanical strategies in proboscidean humeri

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Graviportal proboscideans differ in limb morphology, adopting slender or more robust long bone morphotypes. Finite element analyses (FEA) on extant and extinct taxa reveal functional differences between morphotypes, with robust humeri exhibiting lower peak stress under neutral and off‐axis loading.

Founder Effects, Density, and Droughts Alter the Demographic Responses in Insular Elephant Populations

Journal of Zoology, EarlyView.
The management of insular elephant populations is being compromised, thereby affecting the natural ecological processes that may regulate their numbers. Here, we illustrate demographic responses in two case studies from South Africa by reflecting on the historical legacy of elephant population establishment and how a lack of dispersal may hinder ...
