Habitat niche dynamics of the sicklefin redhorse: a southern Appalachian Mountain habitat specialist
Historically, suckers (Catostomidae) have been largely neglected in conservation efforts. Due to pervasive lotic habitat degradation and loss...

Range shifts of overwintering birds depend on habitat type, snow conditions and habitat specialization
Climatic warming is forcing species to shift their ranges poleward, which has been demonstrated for many taxa globally. Yet, the influence of habitat...

Human disturbance and habitat structure drive eurasian otter habitat selection in heavily anthropized river basins
Assessing habitat selection is essential to protecting threatened species but also to understand what factors influence species that, although...

The Wolf (Canis lupus L.): Territory or Habitat
AbstractThe organization of the living space of animal populations is diverse, but in a generalized version it is characterized by two...

Habitat probability prediction of umbrella species in urban ecosystems including habitat suitability of prey species
Habitat management through distribution tracking of umbrella species has been used to improve urban ecosystem health and sustainability to enhance...

The influence of habitat heterogeneity on Nematoda communities in Posidonia oceanica meadows
Nematodes typically comprise the most abundant phylum in meiofaunal communities. We aim to characterize the specific ecological conditions that...

New insights on habitat use by larval Northern Emerald dragonflies (Somatochlora arctica)
Odonates are widely considered to be bioindicators of freshwater habitat quality. Somatochlora arctica (Corduliidae) is commonly found across...

Effects of habitat regime type on fish diversity in a large eutrophic lake
For shallow lakes, the most dramatic ecosystem shift is that from a clear-water, macrophyte-dominated regime to a turbid, phytoplankton-dominated...

Habitat amount modulates biodiversity responses to fragmentation
Anthropogenic habitat destruction leads to habitat loss and fragmentation, both of which interact to determine how biodiversity changes at the...

Habitat preferences and phenology of carrot wasps (Hymenoptera: Gasteruptiidae, Gasteruption) in Central Europe
AbstractGasteruption is a genus of parasitic inquilines of bees and wasps. They are distributed worldwide, with 21 species occurring in Central...

Climate-change habitat shifts for the vulnerable endemic oak species (Quercus arkansana Sarg.)
Quercus arkansana (Arkansas oak) is at risk of becoming endangered, as the total known population size is represented by a few isolated populations....

Bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) habitat partitioning in relation to age classes in the northwest Mediterranean Sea
Understanding the impact of environmental and biological factors on species’ habitat use is crucial for conservation. A regular presence of common...

Leg coloration is associated with habitat type and social environment in swallows and martins
Plumage ornaments, such as colourful feathers and deeply forked tails, are classic examples of sexually selected ornaments, and are shown to be...

Habitat selection of the arboreal marsupial Dromiciops gliroides and potential effects on the seed dispersal of the mistletoe Tristerix corymbosus
Habitat selection of seed-dispersing animals influences where seeds are deposited, seedling establishment, and population dynamics. In the Patagonian...

Prerequisites for coexistence: human pressure and refuge habitat availability shape continental-scale habitat use patterns of a large carnivore
ContextAdjustments in habitat use by large carnivores can be a key factor facilitating their coexistence with people in shared landscapes. Landscape...

Biogeographic history, egg colouration, and habitat selection in Turdus thrushes (Aves: Turdidae)
Despite broad interest and recent experimentation, there is no single ecological model accounting for the adaptive significance of the diversity of...

Evaluation of the Allen Coral Atlas benthic habitat map product for New Caledonia using representative habitat observations from a multi-species fishery assessment
Several remote sensing projects have produced coral reef habitat maps globally. This includes the Allen Coral Atlas (ACA) project. The present study...

Habitat type affects the diversity of dung beetle (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) assemblages in a neotropical mountainous region of Colombia
Ecological communities of tropical regions respond to habitat configuration, being negatively affected by anthropogenic habitats. In the tropics,...
