Holocene biogeography of the southwestern European white‐toothed shrew (Crocidura iculisma, Eulipotyphla) through its fossil record

open access: yesMammal Review, Volume 55, Issue 2, April 2025.
The shrew Crocidura iculisma has a fragmented distribution limited to southwestern Europe. This study analyzes changes in its geographic distribution including palaeontological and modern data, revealing a significant reduction its range during the Holocene due to competitive exclusion by Crocidura russula and climatic changes.

What the Cat Dragged in: Quantifying Prey Return Rates of Pet Cats (Felis catus) With Outdoor Access in the UK

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 3, March 2025.
This study used predation survey techniques (citizen science) in order to quantify prey return rates across the UK, along with potential influencing factors. Although between 37 and 140 million prey were estimated to be returned home by cats, it is important to recognise that this does not indicate impact on prey populations.

Establishing macroecological trait datasets: digitalization, extrapolation, and validation of diet preferences in terrestrial mammals worldwide [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Ecological trait data are essential for understanding the broad-scale distribution of biodiversity and its response to global change. For animals, diet represents a fundamental aspect of species’ evolutionary adaptations, ecological and functional roles,

The Morphology of the Rare Beetle Silphopsyllus desmanae (Leiodidae), a Commensal of the Semiaquatic Russian Desman

open access: yesJournal of Morphology, Volume 286, Issue 3, March 2025.
We document in detail the morphology of Silphopsyllus desmanae (Leiodidae), a commensal of the endangered semiaquatic Russian desman, and discuss it with respect to phylogeny and function. Silphopsyllus is much less adapted to life on a semiaquatic host than the closely related beaver beetle Platypsyllus.
