How stressors disrupt honey bee biological traits and overwintering mechanisms
HeliyonHigh winter mortality of honey bees (Apis mellifera) has been observed in temperate regions over the past 30 years. Several biotic and abiotic stressors associated with winter colony losses have been identified, but the mechanisms and interactions ...

Colony and individual life-history responses to temperature in a social insect pollinator [PDF]
, 2015 Pollinating insects are of major ecological and commercial importance, yet they may be facing ecological disruption from a changing climate. Despite this threat, few studies have investigated the life-history responses of pollinators to experimentally ...

Climatic, social and reproductive influences on behavioural thermoregulation in a female-dominated lemur [PDF]
Animal Behaviour, 2017 It is well established that social rank in a large group confers a higher adaptive value to a dominant individual relative to others, although there is scant evidence that members of small social groups either have similar social standing or maintain strict dominance.

How the zebra got its stripes: a problem with too many solutions [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2015 The adaptive significance of zebra stripes has thus far eluded understanding. Many explanations have been suggested, including social cohesion, thermoregulation, predation evasion and avoidance of biting flies.

PLASTICITY OF COLLECTIVE BEHAVIOUR IN A NOMADIC EARLY SPRING FOLIVORE
Frontiers in Physiology, 2013 Collective behaviour in the forest tent caterpillar (Malacosoma disstria) meets the thermal constraints of being an early spring folivore, but introduces others constraints in food choice.

Paraventricular hypothalamic vasopressin neurons induce self-grooming in mice
Molecular Brain, 2022 Self-grooming plays an essential role in hygiene maintenance, thermoregulation, and stress response. However, the neural populations involved in self-grooming remain largely unknown.
