Fishers (Pekania pennanti) are forest structure specialists when resting and generalists when moving: behavior influences resource selection in a northern Rocky Mountain fisher population
BackgroundStudies of animal habitat selection are important to identify and preserve the resources species depend on, yet often little attention is...

Limb amputation in lizards as revealed by radiography
Lizards are historically recognized for the ability to voluntarily amputate and regenerate their tails. However, while caudal autotomy has been...

First trials exploring the potential of phytoseiid mites in managing lychee erinose mite, Aceria litchii (Keifer) (Acari: Eriophyidae), infestations on lychee plants
Phytoseiid mites have been frequently found in association with the lychee erinose mite, Aceria litchii , on lychee plants in Brazil, suggesting that...

Not all woods are equal: local, rather than landscape, factors are important to conserve a xylosaprophagous hoverfly
Among the many forest-dwelling invertebrates, saproxylic species play a key role in decomposition and nutrient cycling. Several saproxylic insects...

A matter of time not of co-occurrence: temporal partitioning facilitates coexistence between coyotes (Canis latrans) and gray foxes (Urocyon cinereoargenteus) in temperate forests of Mexico
Sympatric species reduce competitive interactions by segregating their ecological niche as a strategy that promotes coexistence. The main dimensions...

A dynamic state variable model suggests a stronger effect of age than individual energetic state on reproductive allocation in burying beetles
Evolutionary fitness is determined by how an organism allocates energy, or other limited resources, to reproduction during its lifetime. For...

The Adaptive Role of Bark in the Diet of Budongo Chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes schweinfurthii)
The ingestion of bark has been observed across the animal kingdom and is well documented in free-ranging chimpanzees. Thus far, the best-supported...
