Macrogenetics Approach Reveals Spatial Trends and Drivers of Mitochondrial Genetic Diversity at Different Biological Organization Levels in Tropical Western Atlantic Decapods. [PDF]
There is a knowledge gap concerning the genetic diversity distribution across marine invertebrates, and whether the latitudinal genetic diversity gradient results from congruent intraspecific trends. Our results indicate higher genetic diversity in lower latitudes is correlated to productivity and oxygen levels, but does not represent the accumulation ...

Intensity of Nest Defense of White-Winged Choughs (<i>Corcorax melanoramphos</i>) in Urban Versus Natural Habitats. [PDF]
Urbanization changes various conditions for birds to raise their young. Urban areas often have more predators, which forces parents to spend more time and energy protecting their nests. However, this can be difficult because they also need to forage and perform other activities. We studied white‐winged choughs and found that those living in urban areas

Vocal Mimicry, and Conspecific Song and Calls, in Female Albert's Lyrebirds (<i>Menura alberti</i>). [PDF]
The vocalisations of female songbirds are more complex, widespread and functionally important than previously thought, yet information is still depauperate compared to that of males. Here we provide the first recordings and analysis of vocal mimicry and conspecific song and calls in the female Albert's lyrebird.
