Male-biased dominance in greater bamboo lemurs (Prolemur simus) [PDF]
Primate BiologyIntersexual dominance relationships in virtually all lemur species have been reported to be female-biased. Although a claim of male dominance in greater bamboo lemurs (Prolemur simus) which was not supported by data is unusual against this background, it

Olfactory cue use by three-spined sticklebacks foraging in turbid water: prey detection or prey location? [PDF]
, 2012 Foraging, when senses are limited to olfaction, is composed of two distinct stages: the detection of prey and the location of prey. While specialist olfactory foragers are able to locate prey using olfactory cues alone, this may not be the case for ...

Genetic and phenotypic responses to habitat fragmentation in a European harvester ant
Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 18, Issue 6, Page 1053-1068, November 2025.Our work highlights the use of multiple approaches to evaluate species responses to habitat fragmentation. Less allelic richness in habitats with fewer ant nests and reduced heterozygosity with less allelic richness indicated inbreeding; smaller gyne mesosoma size in less connected habitats indicated reduced flight ability.

Dementia prevalence in the Wisconsin Longitudinal Study
Alzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 21, Issue 10, October 2025.Abstract INTRODUCTION While there is growing appreciation of the importance of sociobiological determinants of dementia, few lifespan cohorts offer well‐characterized dementia outcomes to explore these aims. We sought to identify dementia prevalence in the Wisconsin Longitudinal Study (WLS), one of the most comprehensive lifespan cohort studies in the ...

Developmental Neurobiology, Volume 85, Issue 4, October 2025.ABSTRACT Honeybee (Apis mellifera) workers exhibit remarkable behavioral plasticity throughout adult life. In spring and summer, they transition through diverse tasks over a short lifespan of 4–6 weeks. This involves dramatic changes in sensory environment and cognitive demands associated with pronounced structural neuronal plasticity in the mushroom ...
