Fine-scale microhabitat niche separation allows coexistence of two invasive species
When invasive tubenose gobies ( Proterorhinus semilunaris ) and round gobies ( Neogobius melanosotmus ) occur in the same invaded ecosystem, the first is...

Changes in precipitation patterns can destabilize plant species coexistence via changes in plant–soil feedback
Climate change can alter species coexistence through changes in biotic interactions. By describing reciprocal interactions between plants and soil...

Towards Human-Wildlife Coexistence in the Tarangire Ecosystem
In this final chapter we summarize the contributions to the book “Tarangire: Human-Wildlife Coexistence in a Fragmented Ecosystem.” The 15...

Coexistence patterns between native and exotic juvenile Loricariidae in a Neotropical floodplain: an approach to resource partitioning
The diet and distribution of native ( Hypostomus ancistroides , Hypostomus sp.) and exotic juvenile Loricariidae fish (Hypostomus cochliodon , Loricariich...
-
Coexistence holes characterize the assembly and disassembly of multispecies systems
A central goal of ecological research has been to understand the limits on the maximum number of species that can coexist under given constraints....

Association of remnant cholesterol with hypertension, type 2 diabetes, and their coexistence: the mediating role of inflammation-related indicators
PurposeCholesterol metabolism is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease, and recent studies have shown that cholesterol metabolism poses a residual...

Interspecific social interaction between golden jackal (Canis aureus) and red fox (Vulpes vulpes)
In south-western Germany, a territorial single male golden jackal ( Canis aureus ) was repeatedly photographed showing social interaction with a red...

Consequences of spatial patterns for coexistence in species-rich plant communities
Ecology cannot yet fully explain why so many tree species coexist in natural communities such as tropical forests. A major difficulty is linking...
-
Applying plant–plant interaction theory to advance tropical dry forest restoration
Key messageSpecies interactions should be considered during the design of restoration plans for tropical dry forests.
AbstractLegume trees dominate...

Theory of microbial coexistence in promoting soil–plant ecosystem health
A healthy soil plant continuum is critical for maintaining agroecosystem functions and ensuring food security, which is the basis of sustainable...

Thermal physiology, foraging pattern, and worker body size interact to influence coexistence in sympatric polymorphic harvester ants (Messor spp.)
AbstractPhysiological thermal limits can mediate species coexistence at local scales. However, it is challenging to untangle the role they play when...

The Coexistence of People and Bearded Capuchins (Sapajus libidinosus) in a Nonindustrial Ecosystem: An Assessment of Tourist and Local Perceptions in the Coastal Area of Maranhão, Brazil
As human activity increases in primate habitats, it is critical to understand people’s perceptions of primates and of potential conflicts with them....

Rock climbing affects cliff-plant communities by reducing species diversity and altering species coexistence patterns
Cliffs are unique ecosystems with an outstanding but relatively unknown plant diversity, harboring rare, endemic and threatened species, but also...
-
Eco-evolutionary dynamics in two-species mutualistic systems: one-sided population decline triggers joint interaction disinvestment
The interplay between ecological and evolutionary dynamics can create feedback that reinforces external disturbances and potentially threatens...

Relevance of diet diversification in the coexistence between Orius laevigatus and Amblyseius swirskii: prey switching and intraguild predation
Omnivores obtain resources from more than one trophic level, choosing food based on quantity and quality. They usually engage in intraguild predation...

Coexistence of similar species: evidence of a resource and microhabitat sharing in two intertidal hermit crab species
Theory predicts that species can only coexist if they are sufficiently different in their resource and/or microhabitat utilization; if their needs...
-
Plant behavior and coexistence: stem elongation of the carnivorous subshrub Drosophyllum lusitanicum within xerophytic shrub canopies
For many species, facilitation can result in transient species coexistence, but subsequent competition can limit long-term coexistence. Adaptive...

Coexistence of two sympatric hermit crab species from South Brazil: the effect of the shell adequacy index and circadian movement patterns
Gastropod shells play an important role in the life story of hermit crabs, influencing biological characteristics directly. The adequacy of shells...

Interaction Between Dietary Selenium and Zinc Intakes on Hypothyroidism
This study assessed the independent association of dietary selenium and zinc intakes with the risk of hypothyroidism and interaction effect between...

Higher order interactions and species coexistence
Higher order interactions (HOIs) have been suggested to stabilize diverse ecological communities. However, their role in maintaining species...
