Investigating Anthropogenic and Social Influences on Diet of Semi‐Urban Vervet Monkeys Using DNA Metabarcoding

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
We used eDNA metabarcoding of faecal samples to quantify the dietary composition of two vervet monkey populations in a semi‐urban environment in South Africa over a 4‐month period, and compared these results with visual observations. We found that both methods yielded similar results, but eDNA metabarcoding revealed a greater diversity of consumed taxa.

Long‐Term Effects of an Elephant‐Dominated Browser Community on the Architecture of Trees in a Fenced Reserve

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 57, Issue 5, September 2025.
African elephants and meso‐browsers exert substantial top‐down control over the vegetation in African savannas, but their effect on structural relationships in trees remains understudied. Using data collected for more than 3500 trees, we found that 20 years of increasing elephant population reduces tree height and the logged initial growth rate of the ...
