Performance of weak species in the simplest generalization of the rock-paper-scissors model to four species [PDF]
We investigate the problem of the predominance and survival of "weak" species in the context of the simplest generalization of the spatial stochastic rock-paper-scissors model to four species by considering models in which one, two, or three species have a reduced predation probability.

Spatio-temporal analysis identifies marine mammal stranding hotspots along the Indian coastline
Marine mammal strandings provide vital information on species’ life histories, population health and status of marine ecosystems. Opportunistic reporting of strandings also serve as a powerful low-cost tool for monitoring these elusive mammals.

However, my earlier work shows that planets are also living beings and may be categorized into species. The same species of homo would, by this hypothesis, inhabit the same species of planets.

Species Concepts and Species Delimitation [PDF]
The issue of species delimitation has long been confused with that of species conceptualization, leading to a half century of controversy concerning both the definition of the species category and methods for inferring the boundaries and numbers of species. Alternative species concepts agree in treating existence as a separately evolving metapopulation
