Tent‐roosting bats in the Lacandon Forest, Mexico, play a previously undocumented role in dispersing large seeds (> 5 mm) from mature forest species with important ecological and human uses. Sampling 21 feeding tents across two protected areas yielded 2137 seeds from 54 species, with seed deposition rates significantly higher under bat tents than in ...

Sex‐Specific Control and Incomplete Matings: Sperm Removal Behavior in a Bush Cricket Species
In this study, we investigated which sex influences the duration of sperm removal behaviour (SRB) in the ornate bush cricket, Metaplastes ornatus. Female traits showed a weak effect on SRB duration, and lighter females mated more frequently. Frequent unsuccessful mating terminations shortened SRB indicating high level of sexual conflict.

We argue that institutionalisation and institutional change are best understood by focussing on actors with the requisite knowledge and motivation to keep institutional patterns going,

Geochemical and petrographic re‐evaluation of ungrouped iron meteorites from Western Australia
Abstract Under the current classification scheme, ungrouped irons make up ~11% of all recognized iron meteorites. A further ~7% of iron meteorites are currently classified as simply “irons” and are yet to be fully classified. To potentially classify these meteorites, newer approaches, including either statistical modeling or advanced geochemical ...
