The Larger the Egg, the Safer the Nest: A Study on the Negative Correlation Between Nest Predation Rates and Egg Size of Two Tropical Phasianids in Hainan

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
There is a lack of research on the predation of tropical pheasant nests. The study conducted artificial nest experiments based on egg size and we have supported the viewpoint that using experimental eggs matched in size with those of natural eggs improves the accuracy of artificial nest simulation studies. ABSTRACT Nest predation is the principal cause

Unravelling Taxonomic Complexity in Elusive Cetaceans: Mitogenome Insights into Evolutionary History and Cryptic Diversity of Bryde's Whales

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
The Bryde's whale is one of the least understood baleen whale species globally, limiting accuracy of regional and global conservation assessment. This study shows the occurrence of unique genetic lineages and evolutionary histories among Bryde's whale populations.

Genomic and Mitonuclear Patterns of Divergence Among Recently Diverged White‐Crowned Sparrow Subspecies

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
The study investigates genetic divergence among white‐crowned sparrow subspecies across North America, revealing three to four distinct genetic clusters based on genome‐wide SNP analysis, particularly highlighting divergence in the Z chromosome. Notably, Z. l. pugetensis consistently diverges from other populations, and a north–south split within Z. l.

From niche theory to demographic realities: the demographic niche concept for understanding range‐wide population dynamics

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 5, May 2026.
The ecological niche concept is fundamental to understanding species distributions but often overlooks the demographic processes shaping said distributions. Conversely, demographic theory has traditionally neglected how vital rates vary and covary across environments, limiting our understanding of population dynamics across species' ranges.

Powerful yet challenging: mechanistic niche models for predicting invasive species potential distribution under climate change

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 5, May 2026.
Risk assessments of invasive species present one of the most challenging applications of species distribution models (SDMs) due to the fundamental issues of distributional disequilibrium, niche changes, and truncation. Invasive species often occupy only a fraction of their potential environmental and geographic ranges, as their spatiotemporal dynamics ...
