Social organization and habitat use shape the gut microbiome of a marine fish
This study provides the first evidence linking habitat use—and to a lesser extent social organization—to gut microbiome composition in a wild marine fish. The results indicate that local habitat conditions are the primary driver of microbial variation, while social effects are detectable but weak.

The Forms and Structures of Chimpanzee Algae Fishing
We use a systematic, multi‐level framework to describe a recently reported chimpanzee tool use behavior—deep‐water algae fishing. Moyen‐Bafing chimpanzees combined 5 Grips and 4 Actions into 22 Techniques. Our data suggest that chimpanzees benefit from maintaining multiple flexible strategies for this dynamic foraging challenge.

Sketching microprotein portraits
Abstract The illustrations of intricate molecular machineries inside cells created by David Goodsell continue to inspire the scientific community. Here, we aim to extend his artworks to include microproteins, a newly recognized class of small proteins with less than 100 amino acids, encoded by small open reading frames.

This study addresses the ecological role of coarse woody debris (CWD) as a thermally buffered microhabitat for saproxylic organisms in temperate eastern US forests. We measured internal and external log temperatures across four seasons in Southern Appalachian forests to test how log diameter, decay stage, and moisture influence thermal buffering.

In this study, we systematically analyzed the utilization patterns of Chinese pangolin burrows by sympatric species in Guangdong Province, China, including differences in species composition using burrow mounds and burrow tunnels. We found that repeated visits to burrows by Chinese pangolin promoted the use of burrows by sympatric species, suggesting ...
