generation 454 sequencing methods . molecular data were combined with 156 morphological characters in order to estimate the largest anomuran phylogeny to date . the anomuran fossil record allowed us to incorporate 31 fossils for divergence time analyses .", "our findings are compared against current classifications and previous hypotheses of anomuran relationships . many families and genera appear to be poly - or paraphyletic suggesting a need for further taxonomic revisions at these levels . a divergence time analysis provides key insights into the origins of major lineages and events and the timing of morphological ( body form ) and ecological ( habitat ) transitions . living anomuran biodiversity is the product of 2 major changes in the tempo of diversification ; our initial insights suggest that the acquisition of a crab - like form did not act as a key innovation .", "the infraorder anomura represents a highly diverse group of decapod crustaceans comprised of hermit crabs , mole crabs , king crabs , squat - lobsters and porcelain crabs . the fossil record contains representatives of nearly all extant families and spans the norian / rhaetian ( late triassic ) [", "] and the common use of hermit crabs as pets in the aquarium trade . moreover , some species are threatened or endangered due to rarity in nature , e . g . , pylochelidae [", "] . thus , improved understanding of these groups bears not only on appreciation of their diversity and ecology , but also strategies for their conservation .", "] ] . early classifications from the 19th to the first half of the 20th centuries were based on adult morphological characters including mouthparts , antennae , gills , pleon type , and / or larval characteristics . these classifications often differed in higher - level composition and , in some cases , the infraordinal name ( e . g . anomura vs . anomala ) . since these studies , various researchers have proposed changes in the classification scheme [", "] , many of which remain actively debated . more recently , molecular and / or morphological data have been used to reevaluate anomuran relationships [", "one of the most debated evolutionary questions within anomura is phylogenetic relationships between hermit and king crabs . since the early 1800\u2019s [ e . g . , [", "] ] , studies have suggested king crabs and hermit crabs are close relatives , despite first appearances to the contrary . king crabs are among the largest arthropods and have a crab - like body shape , whereas hermit crabs are relatively small and depend on a shell for protection . despite glaring morphological differences as adults , an affinity between king crabs ( lithodoids ) and hermit crabs ( paguroids ) has been long suggested [", "] . although most accept this claim , the evolutionary pathways and hypothesized ancestor of both groups has been debated for decades , with two major hypotheses being proposed . the first suggests that the lithodids (", ") ( \u201chermit to king hypothesis\u201d ) while the second suggests the opposite evolutionary pathway ( \u201cking to hermit hypothesis\u201d ) . here we revisit these hypotheses in light of new phylogenetic data to test the \u201chermit to king\u201d / \u201cking to hermit\u201d evolutionary pathway .", "additional controversy over anomuran relationships stems from apparently rampant examples of convergent and / or parallel evolution in body forms . anomurans span an impressive array of body configurations that include : 1 ) crab - like forms 2 ) squat - lobster forms 3 ) hermit crab forms with pleonal ( abdomen ) symmetry ( found in 1 hermit crab family ) and 4 ) hermit crab forms with pleonal asymmetry ( found in 4 hermit crab families ) . recent studies suggest that the acquisition of a crab - like body form , known as carcinization [ see , [", "] , possibly impacting diversification rates within these lineages . for the first time , we explore diversification patterns in anomura and specifically test if carcinized lineages underwent unusually rapid diversification rates . if the emergence of the crab - like form promoted diversification we would expect the overall rate in carcinized lineages to be high compared to net of diversification across anomura . additionally , we test if the acquisition of different body forms ( i . e . , crab - like , squat - lobster - like , pleonal asymmetry and symmetry ( hermit ) ) arose once or multiple times during the emergence of the anomurans and reconstruct the evolutionary pathways of these transitions .", "divergence dating is a powerful tool used to estimate the timing and origins of diversity , morphological traits , habitat shifts , and diversification . although nearly all the family - level groups of anomura are represented in the fossil record , the discovery has not been as frequent as that of other decapod groups ( i . e . , true crabs , lobsters ) . two factors , variations in cuticular sclerotization and habitat preference , are likely responsible for the limited occurrence of anomuran fossils . many taxa are weakly calcified , whereas others possess well - calcified claws and poorly calcified carapaces and pleons . in addition , habitats currently occupied by anomurans , including freshwater , terrestrial , intertidal marine , deep marine , and hydrothermal vent areas are strongly underrepresented in the fossil record . despite these limitations , we incorporate 31 fossil calibrations to estimate the origin of lineages and major events during anomuran evolutionary history , including the transition of body forms and shift into freshwater and terrestrial environments .", "here , we present the taxonomically broadest and largest dataset yet assembled . we combine sequences generated by traditional sanger and next - generation 454 sequencing methods with morphological characters , including 19 / 20 extant families and 137 species , to estimate phylogenetic relationships , character state evolution , divergence times , and diversification patterns among major lineages of this diverse clade of crustaceans . our comprehensive sampling , in combination with modern integrative approaches , allows us to present the most complete evolutionary picture for the infraorder anomura to date .", ") . alternative outgroup sampling schemes did not affect internal relationships among anomura . the optimal models of evolution for each gene selected in modeltest were as follows : gtr + i + g 18s , 28s , h3 and tvm + i + g 12s , 16s . several sequences downloaded from genbank were excluded from the analysis due to contamination after a blast search and / or strange alignment results ( see additional file", "an \u201cn / a\u201d not available indicates missing sequence data . new sequences are indicated as kfxxxxxx .", "alternative outgroup selections did not affect internal anomuran relationships . with all outgroups included , brachyura was recovered as the sister taxon . the bayesian analysis from the combined molecular + morphology dataset recovers anomura as a monophyletic group with high support ( 100 = pp , figure", ") . the majority of the nodes ( 86 % ) are recovered with very high support ( > 95 ) . three families are recovered as para -

dwelling hermit crab to a fully calcified lithodid crab ) . in conclusion , while recent , modern studies , including ours , overwhelmingly and clearly support a \u201chermit to king\u201d evolutionary scenario , it is also clear that the evolutionary process and concomitant morphological changes ( particularly in pleonal tergal plates and pleopods ) that occurred within the lithodoidea to produce the various degrees of crab -

lobsters and crab - like superfamilies chirostyloidea and galatheoidea , aegloidea , lomisoidea , and the hermit crab and crab - like superfamilies paguroidea and lithodoidea . our results suggest these superfamily clades were derived from a squat - lobster - like ancestor approximately ~ 205 mya ( figures", "with a possibly squat - lobster - like body form , dates back to the late triassic ( ~ 201 . 6 - 228 mya ) and has strong morphological affinity with the superfamilies chirostyloidea and galatheoidea . this fossil was found as part of a biotic assemblage suggesting that", "around 137 mya a squat - lobster like ancestor gave rise to a unique superfamily of anomurans , aegloidea . aegloid crabs represent the only freshwater anomuran family and can be found in caves , lakes , and streams throughout the neotropical region of south america [", "] . in combination with our divergence time analyses , we hypothesize that the complete transition in freshwater occurred sometime between the late cretaceous and miocene . this transition appears to have allowed for rapid diversification approximately 13 mya ( 20\u20137 . 4 mya ) .", "from approximately 180 mya to 147 mya , the families of galatheoidea radiated and diversified . these include the squat lobsters families munidopsidae , munididae and galatheidae , and the porcelain crab family porcellanidae . the porcellanids diverged in the middle jurassic ( ~ 172 mya ) from squat - lobster like ancestors , but a crab - like body form evolved by the tithonian ( ~ 151 - 145 . 5 mya ) based on fossil evidence and ancestral reconstruction analyses . this was the first occurrence of carcinization from a squat - lobster or hermit - like ancestor within anomura ( figures", "] suggested porcellanid crabs were derived galatheids despite the differences in body shape and form , and this is consistent with our current evolutionary hypothesis .", "lomisoidea and chirostyloidea diverged around 122 mya from a squat - lobster like ancestor . this body form was retained within the chirostyloids and underwent further carcinization , attaining a crab - like form in the monotypic lomisidae , endemic to australia .", "] . in our combined analysis , the hermit crab families , pylochelidae , parapaguridae , diogenidae , coenobitidae , and paguridae , formed a monophyletic group with the inclusion of lithodidae or king crabs , and hapalogastridae . we estimated these families arose early in the evolution of anomura , approximately 205 mya . the symmetrical hermit crabs , pylochelidae , are unique with most having complete body symmetry and in utilizing broken gastropod shells , siboglinid tubes , and coral pieces for shelter and protection , in contrast to other hermit groups that commonly use coiled gastropod shells [", ") . this is consistent with our divergence time analysis , which recovers these families as early branching lineages . diogenidae , coenobitidae , and paguridae typically possess an asymmetrical pleon accompanied by an enlarged right or left chela . according to our combined analysis , pleonal asymmetry in hermits appears to have been derived once in the evolution of the anomurans , most probably between 200\u2013187 mya . this contrasts with the results obtained by tsang et al . [", "] , who proposed that the pleonal asymmetry evolved independently in two different hermit crab lineages , once in parapaguridae , and a second time in diogenidae , coenobitidae , and paguridae . these contrasting differences are the result of incongruent phylogenies based on total evidence ( molecular + morphology , this paper ) and molecular only approaches [", "] . note , however , that our molecular - only analyses recover similar results to those of tsang et al . [", ") . carcinization occurred for the third time in the crab - like superfamily lithodoidea between 29\u201318 mya from an asymmetrical hermit - like ancestor . this estimation is consistent with other timing estimates of king crab carcinization [", "the crab - like body form was recovered in our study as the ancestral state for all the anomurans . in our study , all alternative body forms were present ( crab - like , squat lobster , symmetrical hermit , and asymmetrical hermit ) early in the divergence of the anomurans . from these ancestral character states , carcinization occurred independently three times during the evolution of anomura , once in the lithodoidea through an asymmetrical hermit intermediate , and twice in lomisidae and porcellanidae through squat lobster intermediates ( see ahi and si , figure", "] . however , our tree differs significantly from tsang et al . \u2019s study [", "] in the deep ancestral origins of carcinization . tsang et al . \u2019s hypothesis suggests a symmetrical hermit crab - like ancestor predated the squat lobster and asymmetrical intermediaries , whereas we recovered a crab - like ancestor to predate these intermediaries . we acknowledge that our analysis recovers two deep nodes that are unresolved , however symmetrical reconstruction at these nodes seems unlikely ( figure", "a ) . it must also be noted that the most recent common ancestor of anomura is unresolved in the tsang et al . analysis , although it appears to be a crab - like or symmetrical hermit ancestor . the major differences in the two analyses stems from the differences in phylogeny and more specifically the monophyly ( our study ) or polyphyly [", "] of paguroidea and families therein ( i . e . , pylochelidae ) . there is agreement with tsang et al . in the sister group relationship between paguridae and lithodoidea , although tsang et al . used only four lithodid genera ( vs . eight in our study ) and did not include representatives of hapalogastridae . in addition , both studies provide strong evidence for the intermediary ancestors directly predating carcinization across anomura ( twice through squat lobster ( si ) and once through asymmetrical hermit ( asi ) , figure", "the multiple cases of carcinization among the anomurans have been noted since the early 1900s . borradaile ( 1916 ) was the first to propose the term carcinization to explain the crab - like aspects of the hermit crab", "and the tendency of anomurans to achieve this form , a phenomenon unique to anomura not evident in other decapod lineages ( e . g . , lobsters , shrimp ) . the emergence of the crab - like form is not \u2018evenly distributed\u2019 across our phylogeny , first occurring in the older lineages porcellanidae and lomisidae and only more recently within the superfamily lithodoidea . some questions naturally arise . why did carcinization occur independently three times during the evolution of the anomura ? why did the presumably shell - dwelling asymmetrical hermit crab ancestors of lithodid king crabs forsake the use of shells for protection , which already provided them with survival advantage ? morrison et al . [", "] suggest that the crab - like form might represent a key innovation that is associated with an evolutionary advantage , possibly due to the greater mobility and agility provided by this morphology . this seems to be evident within the true crabs , or brachyura , which dominate decapods in terms of species richness [ > 6 , 559 species ; 34 ] and have thrived in marine , freshwater , and terrestrial environments . although diversification seems to be low in the crab - like anomurans when compared to the brachyurans , fossil evidence and divergence time analyses suggest crab - like anomurans are much younger when compared to the closely related true crabs ( table", ") . furthermore , the crab - like porcellanids are one of the oldest ( ~ 172 mya , mrca = 139 mya ) and most diverse families of anomurans [ ~ 247 species , 22 ] . lithodids represent an even younger lineage , originating ~ 18 mya , but comprising over 100 extant species . it is plausible that a crab - like form may hold some evolutionary advantage when considering age and diversification within anomura , although this does not seem to hold true for all groups that underwent the crab - like transition ( i . e . , monotypic family lomisidae ) . a second hypothesis explains the possible advantage of carcinization from a hermit - like ancestor . previous studies have suggested a free - living body form may have a selective advantage in obtaining food resources when unconstrained by a gastropod shell [", "the extraordinary morphological and ecological diversity of anomurans has long fascinated evolutionary biologists . previous studies covering a wide range of faunas have shown how morphological or ecological factors may influence the course of subsequent evolutionary diversification [", "our analysis reports the pattern of diversification in anomura to be characterized by a low net rate of diversification , with two major changes in the rates of speciation along its evolutionary history . the initial diversification of the group during the late permian was characterized by slow rates of diversification and it was not concomitant with major family radiations , which took place from the jurassic onwards .", ") and currently occupy deep - sea habitats suggests that similar geological and environmental changes may also have driven major diversification within the munididae , which shifted habitats at some point because the jurassic forms are nearly all coral - reef associated . currently , the family chirostylidae accounts for 7 % of all anomuran species , but the true diversity is underestimated and about 100 new species are in hand of taxonomists [", "] . clearly , a more accurate phylogenetic framework is needed to interpret in detail the exceptionally high speciation rates reported here .", "the monotypic family lomisidae showed a strikingly lower rate than the overall tempo of diversification in anomura .", "is anomalous in its prolonged persistence despite an inferred speciation rate of zero ( as recovered by the medusa analysis , see results ) . these taxa , old lineages with few extant species , have been reported in several invertebrates and vertebrates [", "] , suggesting that extremely low rates of diversification characterize these groups . high extinction rates could also account for this pattern ; however , we report that a pure - birth yule model best explains our data . under a high - extinction scenario we would expect to see an overabundance of more recently arisen species that simply have not yet gone extinct ;

shelomi , 2012 ; pincheira - donoso & meiri , 2013 ) . our results support the recent conclusion of shelomi ( 2012 ) , that the effect of temperature on insect body size under natural conditions is more complex or species - specific . . . .", ". . . most ectotherms follow the temperature - size rule with smaller adult body size under lower temperatures . this holds true especially when tested under controlled conditions , but such a pattern in nature is less often discovered , especially when comparing latitudinal clines of body size ( blanckenhorn & demont , 2004 ; shelomi , 2012 ; pincheira - donoso & meiri , 2013 ) . our results support the recent conclusion of shelomi ( 2012 ) , that the effect of temperature on insect body size under natural conditions is more complex or species - specific . . . .", ". . . increased temperature generally results in faster growth rates , shorter development times , and smaller adult size in insects and other ectotherms ( nylin and gotthard 1998 ) . olallatarraga and rodriguez ( 2007 ) claimed that similar selection pressures acting on endotherms can apply to behaviourally thermoregulating ectotherms ( but seeadams and church 2008 ; pincheira - donoso and meiri 2013 ) . terrestrial isopods behaviourally thermoregulate to a certain extent ( hassall et al . 2010 ) , but show little tendency ( especially within closely related taxa ) to follow bergmann ' s rule . . . .", ". . . journal of biogeography published by john wiley & sons ltd . summer and winter temperatures may also help to explain mixed support for the heat conservation hypothesis . some studies measured skeleton dimensions to quantify body size , whereas others measure total body mass , including both lean mass and energy reserves , which may confound attempts to assign cause ( pincheira - donoso & meiri , 2013 ) . this is because an animal that is designed to resist starvation might be selected to be highly adipose , so that it has a high ratio of fuel stores to energetic requirements . . . .", ". . . however , despite years of intense study , its effect on continental - level gradients in ectotherms is still debated ( e . g . intraspecific : ashton & feldman , 2003 ; pincheira - donoso & meiri , 2013 ; interspecific : olalla - t arraga et al . , 2006 ; pincheira - donoso et al . , 2008 ; terribile et al . , 2009 ; feldman & meiri , 2014 ) . several hypotheses have been proposed to explain the effect of climate on body size . . . .", ". . . there is an extended debate about the interpretation of this rule and its application to different groups and scales beyond bergmann ' s original postulation ( blackburn et al . , 1999 ) . the inclusion of a mechanism driving the pattern as part of the rule has been also matter of debate ( reviews in watt , mitchell & salewski , analysed also in ectothermic species ( ray , 1960 ; lindsey , 1966 ; ashton & feldman , 2003 ; olalla - t\u00e1rraga & rodr\u00edguez , 2007 ; pincheira - donoso & meiri , 2013 ) . the study of this rule in ectotherms yielded contradictory results , reporting different trends among different groups . . . .", ". . . alternatively , smaller body size at high elevation may also be nonadaptive and may be the result of reduced activity times that limit growth ( sears and angilletta 2004 ; caruso et al . 2014 ) . finally , individuals are also subject to a range of abiotic and biotic selection pressures beyond temperature , including but not limited to microhabitat availability , competition , predation , disease , and resource availability , all of which may influence body size ( angilletta et al . 2004b ; pincheira - donoso and meiri 2013 ) . although the precise mechanisms underlying inverse size clines remain unknown , it is clear that they were constructed in different ways on cuba and hispaniola . . . .", ". . . members of this genus are small - to medium - sized , diurnal , terrestrial , and oviparous species that inhabit semi - arid to desert ecosystems from the iberian peninsula , through north africa , to the middle east and west india , including cyprus and the arabian peninsula ( salvador , the huge geographical range of a . boskianus includes areas with very different climates ( from submediterranean climate on the sea coasts of north africa to the hyperarid climate of central sahara ) . this wide range leads to adaptations to different environments , with great geographical variation ( boulenger , 1921 ; salvador , 1982 ; arnold , 1983 ; pincheira - donoso & meiri , 2013 ) and consequent taxonomic confusion . this problem is well known ( salvador , 1982 ; arnold , 1983 ; baha el din , 2006 ) and has great effect when examining closely related species in an attempt to assess their systematic status . arnold ( 1983 ) suggested that a . boskianus and a . schreiberi might be sister species as they share a relatively high number of primitive features . . . .", "this is a special issue in biological conservation that just came out - december 2016 . there are some great cutting edge manuscripts in this issue on reptile conservation .", "the balance between predictions and evidence and the search for universal macroecological patterns : . . .", "geographical variation in environmental temperatures is expected to impose clinal phenotypic selection that results in the expression of large - scale gradients of body mass variation within animal clades . body size is predicted to increase with increasing latitude and elevation , and hence , with decreasing temperature , a pattern broadly known as bergmann ' s rule . however , empirical observations . . .

( sinistral ) or right - handed ( dextral ) twist , and that handedness derives from the arrangement of cell divisions very early in development .", "the direction of rotation in snails is determined rather simply , by single mutations . as an additional twist , though , inheritance is by maternal effect . that is , the genes in question have to be expressed in the mother , but the phenotype appears in her progeny . one way to think of it is that the result of a maternal effect mutation is delayed one generation\u2014the snail that has a mutation to cause a dextral twist will have a sinistral shell , but all of her children will be dextral .", "snail chirality is one of those things there are a great many papers in developmental biology about , and that\u2019s the direction from which i\u2019ve always approached it \u2014as an illuminating molecular and cellular process , part of the complex story of how genes are translated into form . the cool thing about this new paper by davison et al . is that i had to stretch my brain a little bit and think about it from a population ecology perspective , too .", "there i was , thinking once the evo - devo revolution came , we could just line up all the pop gen people against the wall and be done with them . but noooo\u2026they\u2019re going to be useful after all .", "there are 22 species in the group , and 5 of them are sinistral , with the rest dextral . the question is whether speciation events can reasonably be traced back to changes in a single gene , whether this diverse assemblage can be explained by occasional mutations in chirality that split off new reproductively isolated groups .", "to make a long and somewhat mathematical story short , the answer is no . there have to be other isolating mechanisms present to help out .", "one observation is that if you are a newborn dextral snail in a population of sinistrals , you\u2019re going to have a much harder time finding a mate than your sinistral cousins . the more common your morphology , the more likely you are to find a compatible mate . this competitive advantage for the most common form will typically drive the population towards a single chirality .", "there are , however , conditions under which it is good to be a weirdo . when two species of the same chirality overlap , it will be common for individuals of those two species to mate\u2014which may be fun , but it\u2019s fruitless . if one species has a subpopulation with a different chirality , though , they may have an advantage . while they are only able to mate with conspecifics of the same handedness , they won\u2019t be wasting time and gametes on members of the other species . this is a phenomenon called character displacement , and could be an additional force for speciation .", "in the simpler case where a single population has two chiral variants , though , chirality is insufficient in itself to isolate the two forms . with mathematical modeling , the authors showed that the separation will be incomplete because of gene flow , so the two types will reach an equilibrium , but outside of chance variations , one will not replace the other . the catch is the way maternal effects are delayed in the expression of their phenotype by a generation . that means that a sinistral snail can mate with a sinistral snail , and their progeny may be dextral , and able to breed with the dextral population . similarly , some of those dextral snails will mate with other dextral snails , and produce progeny which are sinistral . gene flow is slowed between the two subgroups , but it would require other phenomena , such as geographic separation , to complete the process .", "davison a , chiba s , barton nh , clarke b ( 2005 ) speciation and gene flow between snails of opposite chirality . plos biol 3 ( 9 ) : e282 .", "so let me get this straight , a professional biologist has to actually stop and put some thought into grasping the implications of chirality on poulation ecology . in other words , an individual with a reasonable grasp of mathematics , basic physics , biochemistry , genetics , and a good dose of critical thinking skills admits he had to stretch a bit . no wonder the fundies are desperate to teach the controversy they just don\u2019t have what it takes to grasp any of this . maybe their mind set is like a form of chirality that will eventually isolate them into smaller and smaller interbreeding poulations and eventually cause them to go extinct . yeah , i know that\u2019s wishful thinking !", "thanks from a writer of science fiction \u2014 this article gave me a glimmering for an alien species . the passing back and forth of genes in alternating generations is very cool .", "although if they ever trapped themselves into a population decline i think they would use guns and military might to maintain their grip on power .", "science 2 . 0 is a pro -

purpose , look - alike forms\u2014forms which mirror those of placental carnivores . the names given to them by early european settlers reflect this : the thylacine was called the tasmanian tiger , quolls were called native cats , and so on .", "the primary specialization among marsupial predators is that of size : prior to the massive environmental changes that came about with the arrival of humans about 50 , 000 years ago , there were several very large carnivores , none of them members of the dasyuromorphia and all of them now extinct . those marsupial predators among the dasyuromorphians that survived into historical times ranged from the wolf - sized thylacine to the tiny long - tailed planigale , which at 4 to 6 grams is less than half the size of a mouse . most present - day dasyuromorphians , however , tend towards the lower end of the size scale , typically between about 15 or 20 grams and about 2 kilograms , or from the size of a domestic mouse to that of a small domestic cat .", "to provide context , the table below also shows other major branches of the marsupial tree .", "order diprotodontia ( about 137 species in 11 families , including the koala , wombats , possums , potoroos , kangaroos , wallabies and others . )", "unlike most marsupials in which the females typically have an external pouch where the newborn are nursed , numbat females have no pouch . the four mammae ( milk - secreating teats ) are protected , however , by a patch of crimped , golden hair and by the swelling of the surrounding abdomen and thighs during lactation ( cooper 2011 ) .", "the numbat is relatively small compared to many termite - consuming mammals , with a body length of about 17 . 5 to 27 . 5 centimeters ( 7 - 11 inches ) and a tail of about 13 . 0 to 17 centimeters ( 5 - 6 . 7 inches ) , or roughly 30 to 45 centimeters ( 12 - 17 . 7 inches ) in total length . the adult numbat weighs from about 280 to 550 grams ( 0 . 6 - 1 . 2 pounds ) ( ellis 2003 ) .", "the numbat has a finely pointed muzzle , a small mouth , and small , round - tipped ears . there are five toes on the stout forefeet , and four toes on the hindfeet ; all four feet have thick and large claws ( cooper 2011 ; ellis 2003 ) . the tail is prominent and bushy . like many termite - eating animals , the numbat has an unusually long , narrow , tongue , coated with sticky saliva produced by large submandibular glands . the tongue can reach 10 centimeters from the mouth opening ( ellis 2003 ) . a further adaptation to the diet is the presence of numerous ridges along the soft palate , which apparently help to scrape termites off the tongue so that they can be swallowed .", "like other mammals that eat termites or ants , the numbat has a degenerate jaw with up to 50 very small non - functional teeth , and although it is able to chew ( cooper 2011 ) , it rarely does so , because of the soft nature of its diet . uniquely among terrestrial mammals , there is an additional cheek tooth between the premolars and molars ; it is unclear whether this represents a supernumary molar tooth or a deciduous tooth retained into adult life . as a result , although not all individuals have the same dental formula , in general , it follows the unique pattern ( cooper 2011 ) :", "thylacinidae is an extinct family of dasyuromorphians , whose only species to survive into modern times was the thylacine ( thylacinus cynocephalus ) , also known as the tasmanian wolf or tasmanian tiger . all other thylacinids lived in prehistoric times in australia , with specimens found in the fossil record dating back to the early miocene .", "dasyuridae includes about 75 species divided into 15 genera . dasyurids are known by such common names as quolls , dunnarts , and the tasmanian devil . dasyurids are found in australia and new guinea . they inhabit a wide range of environments , including grassland , forests , and mountains , and some species are arboreal or semiaquatic .", "many dasyurids are small and mouse - like , leading to the misnomer \" marsupial mice , \" but the group also includes the cat - sized quolls , as well as the tasmanian devil . the smallest species is the pilbara ningaui , which is from 4 . 6 to 5 . 7 cm in length , and weighs just 2\u20139 grams , while the largest , the tasmanian devil , is 57\u201365 cm long , and weighs from 6\u20138 kg . the smaller dasyurids typically resemble shrews or mice in appearance , with long tails and narrow , pointed noses . the larger species bear a resemblance to such placental carnivores as mongooses or mustelids ( lee 1984 ) .", "many features of dasyurids are considered primitive , that is , they resemble the features of the earliest marsupials , from which other species , such as kangaroos and bandicoots , later diverged . for example , all of the toes in dasyurids are separate , whereas in many other marsupials , the second and third toes are fused . similarly , many species lack a full marsupial pouch ; instead they have a simple fold of skin surrounding the teats to provide some protection to the developing young . the dentition of dasyurids is also considered primitive , and differs from that of other marsupials , with a dental formula of : .", "dasyurids are primarily insectivorous , but they will also eat small lizards , fruit , and flowers . one of the few exceptions to this rule is the tasmanian devil , which subsists mainly on vertebrate carrion ( lee 1984 ) . they have relatively simple digestive tracts , as is typical of insectivores and carnivores .", "gestation lasts from 12\u201316 days , and results in the birth of from two to 12 young , depending on species . smaller species typically breed at least twice a year , while the larger forms tend to breed just once . the length of lactation reflects this , with young dunnarts , for example , being weaned after 60\u201370 days , but young quolls only after 8\u20139 months . most dasyurid species are sexually mature at one year of age , but , again , the quolls and tasmanian devil , being larger , take longer to mature and do not reach full adulthood for about two years ( lee 1984 ) .", "bininda -

[ 12 ] made an important advance by testing for analogous patterns of body size evolution in a non - insular system . specifically , they compared body sizes of animals living in deep - sea benthic habitats with their shallow - water living congeners . using the malacolog database version 3 . 3 . 3 of rosenberg [ 13 ] , mcclain et al . [ 12 ] took the gastropods of the western atlantic as a case study , and reported that a highly significant trend from dwarfism to gigantism was evident in the deep - sea species .", "here , i re - examine whether deep - sea gastropods manifest the island rule , making use of the improved statistical methods , and data collated from the recently updated malacolog database [ 24 ] , which has been both expanded , and revised to reflect advances in gastropod systematics [ 25 ] . it is found that the central conclusion of mcclain et al . [ 12 ] is robust , and that gastropod colonists of the deep - sea benthos do indeed exhibit island - rule - like evolution .", "part a shows how different tests of the \u2018island rule\u2019 can give qualitatively different results . \u201cdeep - sea\u201d species were defined as those with a depth range midpoint > 200m , and all other species defined as \u201cshallow - water\u201d . the ordinary - least - squares regression ( dashed line ) differs significantly from the 1\u22361 line of the null ( dotted line ) , but the standardized - major - axis regression ( solid line ) shows no significant departure . part b shows a less ambiguous case : \u201cdeep - sea\u201d species are those never observed above 400m , and \u201cshallow - water\u201d species those never observed below 200m ; body sizes are within - genus means , taking equal numbers of deep - and shallow - water species in each genus .", "the body sizes of deep - sea gastropods are plotted against those of their shallow - water congeners . \u201cshallow - water\u201d species were never observed below 200m , and \u201cdeep - sea\u201d species never observed above depths of a : 200m , b : 400m and c : 600m . separate standardized - major - axis regression lines are shown for the neogastropoda ( black points ) and all other groups ( grey points ) . the dotted line is the 1\u22361 expected under the null . genera with fewer than two deep and two shallow species were excluded .", "since the pattern was first identified [ 1 ] \u2013 [ 3 ] the island rule has been explained in a large number of ways [ 1 ] \u2013 [ 11 ] . a powerful method of distinguishing between the competing explanations is to test for the presence of analogous patterns in systems that share some , but not all of the ecological characteristics of island habitats [ 4 ] , [ 12 ] , [ 34 ] . for example , one putative contributor to the vertebrate pattern is \u201cimmigrant selection\u201d , that is , between - lineage differences in the probability of reaching isolated islands , as opposed to differences in survival after colonisation [ 4 ] , [ 35 ] , [ 36 ] . the colonization of the deep - sea benthos differs clearly and qualitatively from the colonization of islands , and so if it is assumed that the similar patterns of body size evolution reflect a similarity of underlying cause [ 12 ] , this argues against immigrant selection as a key determinant of the graded trend that is observed in both cases .", "similarly , predator release is a particularly plausible explanation of the vertebrate island rule [ 1 ] , [ 4 ] , [ 6 ] , [ 11 ] ; this is partly because it can naturally account for both dwarfism and gigantism ( by assuming that large and small body sizes evolve as alternative strategies for predator avoidance ) , and partly because predator release is so clearly implicated in other unusual characteristics of island endemics ( such as tameness ) [ 37 ] , [ 38 ] . but there is little evidence that reduced predation characterises the deep - sea [ 12 ] , [ 14 ] , and indeed there is direct evidence of substantial predation acting on deep - sea gastropods [ 12 ] , [ 39 ] \u2013 [ 41 ] . the gastropod results therefore argue against the predator release hypothesis as a general explanation of the island rule [ 12 ] .", "we are therefore still far from understanding the causes of the patterns observed \u2013 and particularly the roles of inter - and intra - specific competition [ 3 ] , [ 4 ] , [ 11 ] , [ 12 ] . a detailed clarification of where the pattern does and does not hold will be an important step toward achieving this goal [ 4 ] , [ 12 ] , [ 19 ] , [ 20 ] .", "many thanks are due to andrew rambaut for providing a script to mine the malacolog database . many thanks also to lucy weinert , nicolas bierne , gary rosenberg , shai meiri . simon joly and an anonymous reviewer , who all greatly improved the manuscript with their comments and advice .", "conceived and designed the experiments : jw . performed the experiments : jw . analyzed the data : jw . wrote the paper : jw .", "foster jb ( 1964 ) evolution of mammals on islands . nature 202 : 234\u2013235 .", "van valen l ( 1973 ) pattern and balance in nature . evolutionary theory 1 : 31\u201349 .", "lomolino mv ( 1985 ) body size of mammals on islands : the island rule re - examined . am nat 125 : 310\u2013316 .", "lomolino mv ( 2005 ) body size evolution in insular vertebrates : generality of the island rule . j biogeog 32 : 1683\u20131699 .", "macarthur rh , wilson eo ( 1963 ) an equilibrium theory of insular zoogeography . evolution 17 : 373\u2013387 .

( turner et al . 2008 ) . thus , ips62078 differs from chasmaporthetes ( see kurt\u00e9n and werdelin 1988 ; werdelin and solounias 1991 ; werdelin and turner 1996 ; ant\u00f3n et al . 2006 ; tseng et al . 2013 ) in the presence of p1 , the relatively broader cheek teeth , the less developed accessory cusps in the premolars , the mesial and distal accessory cusps of the premolars aligned with the main cusp ( instead of lingually tilted ) , the presence of metaconid ( even if vestigial ) , the tricuspid m1 talonid ( chasmaporthetes lacks the hypoconulid and sometimes the hypoconid ) , and the presence of m2 . . . .", ". . . according to the ecological opportunity hypothesis , this will be more likely if the immigrant has a substantially different ecology ( e . g . using otherwise unexploited resources ) , or if the continent is poor of species with similar ecologies . for instance , a phylogenetic study suggests that rat snakes ( colubridae : tribe lampropeltini ) underwent an explosive diversification in north america after migrating from eurasia through the bering land bridge [ 14 ] . this pattern is interpreted as the outcome of the colonization of a continent where ecological opportunities were plentiful , since the existing diversity of snakes in north america at the time of immigration was relatively low [ 14 ] . . . .", ". . . for instance , a phylogenetic study suggests that rat snakes ( colubridae : tribe lampropeltini ) underwent an explosive diversification in north america after migrating from eurasia through the bering land bridge [ 14 ] . this pattern is interpreted as the outcome of the colonization of a continent where ecological opportunities were plentiful , since the existing diversity of snakes in north america at the time of immigration was relatively low [ 14 ] . likewise , a phylogeny of muroid rodents suggests that a rapid radiation characterized by a burst in speciation rates , followed the arrival to south america [ 15 ] . . . .", ". . . their biochronological significance remains , however , relatively limited since their presence in western europe covers a large timeframe . pachycrocuta brevirostris appeared in europe at the beginning of the late villafranchian ( olivola fu / mnq18 , e . g . turner et al . , 2008 ; rook and mart\u00ednez - navarro , 2010 ) and disappeared at the beginning of the middle galerian , perhaps as a result of the arrival of crocuta ( palombo et al . , 2008 ) . panthera onca gombaszoegensis and canis mosbachensis are present in western and central europe respectively from mnq18 and mnq19 and up to the late galerian ( e . g . . . .", ". . . pachycrocuta brevirostris appeared in europe at the beginning of the late villafranchian ( olivola fu / mnq18 , e . g . turner et al . , 2008 ; rook and mart\u00ednez - navarro , 2010 ) and disappeared at the beginning of the middle galerian , perhaps as a result of the arrival of crocuta ( palombo et al . , 2008 ) . panthera onca gombaszoegensis and canis mosbachensis are present in western and central europe respectively from mnq18 and mnq19 and up to the late galerian ( e . g . . . .", ". . . hunting ( or cursorial ) hyenas were the last ecomorphotype to become extinct , being substituted by canids during the pliocene , after the dispersal of the latter into the old world by the end of the miocene ( werdelin and turner 1996a , b ; turner et al . 2008 ) . three out of the four extant hyaenids belong to the bone - cracking ecomorphotype : crocuta crocuta ( erxleben , 1777 ) , hyaena hyaena ( linnaeus , 1758 ) , and parahyaena brunnea ( thunberg , 1820 ) . . . .", ". . . more recently , studies on the internal cranial anatomy of hyaenids relied on extant taxa ( holekamp et al . 2007a ; arsznov et al . 2010 ; sakai et al . 2011 ) , so that the brain morphology of extinct bone - cracking hyenas remains undescribed . here , with the aid of ct - scans , we describe the internal cranial morphology ( frontal sinuses and brain ) of the extinct bone - cracking hyena pliocrocuta perrieri , which is the most common hyena in late pliocene to early pleistocene mammalian faunas from europe ( turner et al . 2008 ) . we analyze three complete crania of this hyaenid species from the iberian peninsula , whose external morphology was previously described by vinuesa et al .

rate for chinese loess 26 . at that time , the populations might have become isolated into different refugia and occupied different habitats and climate zones either due to , or eventually leading to , local ecological adaptation , and two distinct lineages distributed in central and southwest china .", "the mitochondrial genetic analyses indicated that large forms diverged into two distinct lineages , clade 2 and clade 3 with a level of divergence similar to that between the small and large forms . additionally , these two mt clades show distinct geographic distribution , with clade 2 primarily occurring central china , whereas clade 3 is primarily in southeast china ( fig . 1 ) , although there is sympatry in two localities ( cq and sxi ) . these results suggest a cryptic mitochondrial lineage in the large form in china .", "an increasing number of studies have reported mitochondrial species - level paraphyly ( e . g . refs 6 , 7 and 8 ) . in our study , phylogenetic analyses revealed that mt clade 1 ( small forms ) was nested within the mt clades 2 + 3 group ( large forms ) , rendering large forms paraphyletic with respect to small forms . two evolutionary processes may account for this mitochondrial paraphyly : ( i ) incomplete lineage sorting and the persistence of highly divergent mt lineages , and ( ii ) mitochondrial introgression .", "based on our analyses of population demographic history , the small form might have undergone post - glacial range expansion after the baiyu ( the last ) glaciation 24 , following secondary contact with the large forms . in the mitochondrial trees , all individuals from the three sympatric areas diverged recently ( see the top of mt clade 1 ; figs s1 and s2 ) . moreover , the number of small forms is less than large forms in three sympatric areas ( fig . 1 ) , suggesting the small form may be expanding into areas occupied by the large form .", "sampling sizes were different for morphological characters ,

i have heard many who discovered them congregating around rotting carcasses of frogs , dead swiflets and bats near caves . personally , i have encountered a group of clea helena feeding on picnic leftovers of fried fish at water ' s edge in sungai jernih , perlis , malaysia . so , these buccinids are no different from their marine cousins - scavengers and predators at the same time . i ' ve brought some back home for further observations of their feeding behaviour . here ' s a photo - essay of it :", "information on the african species is particularly void while asia ' s ones received more attention ( from the aquarium trade , not researchers ! ) . clea genus is widespread across southeast asia and have not been recorded elsewhere . it ' s abundance is notable especially in alluvial plains and around large water bodies like the irrawaddy delta ( myanmar ) , mekong river ( indochina countries ) , chao phraya river ( thailand ) and other major waterways and lakes of malaysia , brunei and indonesia ( sumatra , java , kalimantan ) . the question is - how did they managed to reach other rivers and lakes divided by tall mountain ranges and vast seas ?", "on the scientific front though , little is known about this enigmatic group of snails . however , it is generally accepted that there are two genus of this family that somehow abandoned the sea in favour of creeks and ponds . the african species is categorised into the ( sub ) genus afrocanidia while asia ' s is grouped into the clea genus . now , this may shed some light to its origins . perhaps , they first appeared from a common ancestor when africa and south asia was in one piece ( called pangea ) 225 million years ago ? or did they adapted to freshwater separately ( convergent evolution ) since it is more likely to be a recent adaptation ?", "the possible answer can be found when we turn the clock back to around 20 000 years ago . the waters of south china sea , gulf of siam , straits of malacca and java sea recede and is replaced by alternating grasslands and swamps . now , one would notice that major rivers were being drained out of this large peninsula , dubbed sundaland , by \" mega rivers \" ( much like the present day amazonian basin ) . so , it ' s possible that the clea genus or its ancestor have had its early millenias conquering much of sundaland ' s freshwater systems before rising sea levels cut off many populations and from there each evolved into seperate species or subspecies .", "tylomelania spp . are almost but not quite livebearers . again , males and females are separate , so for breeding purposes a group is required . there is no easy way to sex them . once mating has taken place , the female broods the eggs internally almost to the point when they are ready to hatch . the eggs are then released , and within an hour than juvenile snail crawls out from the shell . at this point the juvenile has a shell that is a good 5 mm in length , and can be reared alongside the adults without problems . they are , however , vulnerable to predation by clea helena , so while adults of both species can be mixed , you won\u2019t get many tylomelania if they\u2019re kept together .", "adams a .

( 2006 a , b ) propose that in megatherium americanum and scelidotherium leptocephalum narrower muzzles are indicative of selective or mixed feeder habits , and their prensile lips were used to select plants or parts of plants . mcdonald ( 1997 , cited in bargo et al . 2006b ) stated that s . leptocephalum probably looked for buried food with the help of its forelimbs , even if it could also feed on other vegetation closer to the substrate level .", "preliminary observations of growth lines on glyptodont teeth suggest the potential for reconstruction of many aspects of the life history of these mammals , including the search for seasonal periodicities and growth rhythms .", "the averages of the obtained values of \u03b4 13 c for lestodon armatus from uruguay ( - 18 . 8 % , czerwonogora et al . 2011 ) and glossotherium robustum from the province of buenos aires ( - 20 . 5 % , czerwonogora et al . 2011 ) indicate a preference for c3 vegetation and rather open environments , similar to those currently found in northern patagonia . those results are compatible with the ones obtained in modern primary consumers in open habitats ( deniro and epstein 1978 ) .", "moreover , those high values of 15 n are congruent with some marks found in a fragmentary left rib of a very large mammal , probably a giant sloth or a mastodont . the spacing of the damage marks fits well with the distance between the mesiodistal lophs of the teeth ( fari\u00f1a 2002 ) .", "african mammalian faunas in the pleistocene are very similar ( if not identical ) to those existing today , so the model that best explains their dynamics could be the starting point used to study other faunas in the rest of the continents . the south american mammals that lived in the pleistocene are different from those existing today , so the model may have to be modified to address this issue . however , this cannot be done until the faunas in the paleobiology database are improved both in number of species and in quantity .", "one could then speculate on the possibility that mammals might have experienced seasonal migrations , which would have resulted in a more efficient usage of vegetation by the herbivores . the dramatic reduction of the available area subsequent to the end of the glacial period , together with the effects of the end - pleistocene human arrival in the americas , must have been crucial factors in the extinction of this fauna .", "all these approaches open new and exciting possibilities for future research on the unique and bizarre mammals from south america , whose design and evolutionary history captivated george gaylord simpson and many others like us .", "alroy j . 2001 . a multispecies overkill simulation of the end - pleistocene megafaunal mass extinction . science 292 : 1893 - 1896 .

( found in hiroshima bay ) , using previously reported methods [ 21 ] . authentic specimens of gonyautoxins1 - 4 ( gtx ) and stxs were prepared from the digestive glands of psp - infested scallop patinopecten yessoensis found in ofunato bay , iwate prefecture , japan , and from the exoskeleton of z . aeneus collected at kabira bay , okinawa prefecture , japan , according to previously reported methods [ 4 , 24 , 25 ] .", "the trimethylsilyl ( tms ) derivative of 2 - amino - 6 - hydroxymethyl - 8 - hydroxyquinazoline ( c9 base ) was derived from purified toxins and authentic ttx by a previously described procedure [ 26 ] . both tms derivatives were injected to a varian gas chromatograph ( 1200 ms / ms ) equipped with a mass spectrometer ( varian cp - 3800 ) according to previously described methods [ 21 ] .", "figure 3 : hplc - fld analysis of ttx in d . cultripes . one mu of ttx standard solution was injected to hplc - fld system .

[ 32 ] showed the presence of psp toxins in the viscera of the edible shore crab telmessus acutidens . it was also revealed that the total toxicity in the crab viscera increased linearly with the amount of toxic mussels the crabs ingested by feeding experiments [ 33 ] . transport and accumulation of toxins in food chains are a common phenomenon , particularly in marine biota . the origin of neurotoxins in toxic xanthid crabs may be from toxic lower strata invertebrates . the occurrence of calcareous red algae jania sp . as the primary source of psp in coral reef crabs was reported [ 34 , 35 ] . on the other hand , it was also reported that psp - containing a . floridus maintains a fairly high toxicity level for a long period when fed nontoxic diets ( noguchi et al . , personal communication ) . this observation may suggest that psp in this toxic crab mentioned above is endogenous . in addition to this , it may also suggest that the crabs have the psp and / or ttx - specific binding substance . through a complex system of trophic interrelationships , nonfilter - feeding organisms can also be exposed to psp and / or ttx and thus accumulate and play a role as vectors in marine food web . in order to elucidate the diet of d . cultripes , microscopic examination of stomach contents of the species is needed . further studies are now in progress to elucidate the associated mechanism of toxicity . in addition , investigation of individual , local , and size - dependent variations in toxicity of d . cultripes is also needed . because d . cultripes specimens are large enough to be regarded as food items , the potential danger of their consumption should be disseminated to the public to prevent future cases of food poisonings .", "to our knowledge , this is the first evidence of occurrence of ttx and psp in the d . cultripes inhabiting the coast of cebu island and the confirmation of its implication in human poisoning .", "this work was partly supported by a jsps -

relatively few studies describe their anatomy ( rudman 1969 ; miller 1971 ; taylor 1990 ; taylor et al . 1993 ) . this is surprising , given the relative abundance of terebrids and their global tropical distribution and shallow water occurrence . the last classification ( bouchet and rocroi 2005 ) of the gastropoda recognizes two subfamilies , terebridae and pervicaciinae , within the family terebridae , which comprises > 300 known species ( bratcher and cernohorsky 1987 ; terryn 2007 ) and may be another 100 unnamed taxa , especially in deeper waters ( 100\u2013500 m ) .", "we used a

toxins from various terebrid species , it is essential to first identify those species that have a venom apparatus . shown in figure 3 is the mapping of the presence or absence of a venom apparatus in the terebrid species used to construct the molecular phylogeny in figure 2 . the map clearly indicates that terebrids have lost the venom apparatus twice during their evolution , see clades b and e .

and sysoev 1989 ; taylor 1990 ; simone 1999 ; kantor and taylor 2000 ) . the molecular phylogeny presented here paints a plausible picture of how terebrids evolved such a diversity of feeding strategies . our findings suggest that all terebrids appear to be derived from a common ancestor with a venom apparatus of the miller type iib ( fig . 3 ) . furthermore , mapping of the venom apparatus indicates that two lineages of terebrids independently lost their ability to hunt prey using toxins , clades b and e .", "there is a considerable correlation between our molecular phylogeny , miller ' s anatomical groupings , and the ecological distribution of the terebrid species used in this study . miller separated terebrids with a venom apparatus , type ii feeders , into two distinct groups , iia and iib . type iia and iib terebrids differ in the shape of the buccal tube and shell morphology ( miller 1970 ) . type iia terebrids have a long and slender buccal tube and small shiny shells , with 7\u201310 whorls and a flared aperture . terebrids of type iib have a short , thick buccal tube , and the shells are large , long , and slender , with 15 or more whorls and a constricted aperture . our phylogenetic analysis supports this separation . the species in clade c , terebra , have slender and multiwhorled shells , whereas those of clade d , hastula , are shiny with fewer whorls . the separation of the two clades is further supported by the ecological differences in their habitats . terebra species of clade c live buried in sandy or muddy subtidal flats , whereas hastula species of clade d live predominantly on surf beaches or in sand in reef pockets ( miller 1970 , 1979 ) . similarly , terebrids that feed without the use of a venom apparatus , types i and iii feeders , are represented by two different clades in the molecular phylogeny , clades b and e , respectively . our analysis clarifies that the two clades without venom apparatus , clades b and e , are not sister groups .", "the terebridae phylogeny in figure 2 sets the stage for efficient characterization of terebrid toxins and identification of the gene superfamilies that encode their toxins using the biodiversity first , exogenomic strategy recently applied to cone snails ( olivera 2006 ; olivera and teichert 2007 ) . the exogenomic strategy was used to characterize cone snail toxins that target nicotinic receptors . in this strategy , phylogeny and molecular biology techniques are used to identify \u201cexogenes , \u201d genes of the toxins expressed in the venom duct . exogenes rapidly evolve to respond to cues in their biotic environment and are thus a powerful marker for differentiating ecological or evolutionarily distinct organisms .", "clades c and d are the two major terebrid groups most suitable to investigate toxins for biochemical characterization ( fig . 4 ) . furthermore , as clades c and d are not sister clades , they may produce divergent toxins that could result in varied functional activity upon further characterization .", "terebrids with venom apparatus : representative shell images of the terebrid species in clades c and d that have a venom

communication in the nervous system , will also provide additional characters to further clarify the phylogeny and evolutionary biology of these organisms . for toxoglossate gastropods , the dual

moran et al . 2008 ; whittington et al . 2010 ) . . . .", ". . . conoideans subdue their prey using a venom apparatus made up of a proboscis , radular tooth , a radular sac , venom gland , and venom bulb ( fig . 3 ( a ) ; taylor 1990 ; kantor et al . 2000 ; modica and holford 2010 ; kantor and puillandre 2012 ) . cone snails ( conus ) are the most studied in the conoidea ( puillandre et al . 2014 ; puillandre et al . 2015 ) ; however , conus comprises only 5 % of the biodiverse group of venomous marine snails ( olivera et al . 1999 ; holford et al . 2009 ; king 2015 ) . other non - conus conoideans , such as the turridae ( s . l . ) family , which has more recently been divided into seven family groups ( tucker and tenorio 2009 ; bouchet et al . 2011 ) , and the terebridae family , also produce venom ( heralde et al . 2008 ; aguilar et al . 2009 ; gonzales and saloma 2014 ; gorson et al . 2015 ; moon et al . 2016 ) . . . .", ". . . thus , the advantages of molecular phylogenetics , which allows for the comparison of thousands of homologous characters across species , are of particular interest among the terebridae . the first molecular phylogeny of the terebridae was constructed based on analyses of a three\u2010 gene matrix ( 12s , 16s , and coi ) to define terebridae lineages and their evolutionary history [ 52 ] . this initial terebridae phylogeny confirmed the monophyly of the group and defined five distinct lineages : acus ( clade b ) , terebra ( clade c ) , hastula ( clade d ) , myurella ( clade e ) , and a previously unidentified fifth sister clade that includes pellifronia jungi ( clade a ) [ 52 ] . . . .", ". . . the first molecular phylogeny of the terebridae was constructed based on analyses of a three\u2010 gene matrix ( 12s , 16s , and coi ) to define terebridae lineages and their evolutionary history [ 52 ] . this initial terebridae phylogeny confirmed the monophyly of the group and defined five distinct lineages : acus ( clade b ) , terebra ( clade c ) , hastula ( clade d ) , myurella ( clade e ) , and a previously unidentified fifth sister clade that includes pellifronia jungi ( clade a ) [ 52 ] . subsequent molecular phylogenetic analysis , including additional taxa from the eastern and western pacific further resolved the terebrid evolutionary relationships , synonymizing acus clade b to oxymeris , recovering a previously unidentified clade f that includes the euterebra and duplicara genera , and subdividing the large myurella clade e into five lineages ( clades e1\u20135 ) [ 48 ] ( figure 2 ) . . . .", ". . . thus , the advantages of molecular phylogenetics , which allows for the comparison of thousands of homologous characters across species , are of particular interest among the terebridae . the first molecular phylogeny of the terebridae was constructed based on analyses of a three - gene matrix ( 12s , 16s , and coi ) to define terebridae lineages and their evolutionary history [ 52 ] . this initial terebridae phylogeny confirmed the monophyly of the group and defined five distinct lineages : acus ( clade b ) , terebra ( clade c ) , hastula ( clade d ) , myurella ( clade e ) , and a previously unidentified fifth sister clade that includes pellifronia jungi ( clade a ) [ 52 ] . . . .", ". . . auger snails ( 350\u2013400 described species ) form a clade in the phylogeny of puillandre et al .

dimensional diffraction grating . in that sense , while its effect on the polarization state of the light differs , the exocuticle diffracts light much as a multilayer dielectric grating does . indeed , three - dimensional gratings can reflect light that is circularly or elliptically polarized [ 15 ] . in mantis shrimps , cp reflection has been observed in the keel of the male odontodactylus cultrifer and is generated by two optical components . the first , a linear polarizer , is based on the ordered arrangement of dichroic carotenoid astaxanthin molecules . the second component is a quarter -

wave lengths , then the multilayer hexagonal platelets are functioning as a quarter - wave retarder . formally , the plate structure should follow the equation 2\u03c0\u00b7\u03b4 n \u00b7 z / \u03bb = ( 2 n + 1 ) \u00b7\u03c0 / 2 , where \u03b4 n is the refractive index difference between the fast and the slow axes of the platelets , z is the overall thickness of the multilayer structure , \u03bb is the average wavelength of the light , and n is an arbitrary positive whole number . hence linearly polarized light ( at a 45\u00b0 angle to the fast and slow axes ) transmitted through the copepods is circularly polarized . note that the graph of the modulation depth of the cp detector signal as a function of the input polarization shows a cycle of \u03c0 / 2 as is expected from a quarter - wave retarder . also note that most of cyclic signals changed together with almost no phase difference between them , an indication that all the crystals of the hexagonal platelets over the entire body of the copepod are oriented in approximately the same direction . however , we also found that the handedness of the circular polarization along the sides of the dorsal view ( points a\u2013d in fig . 2b , inset ) was opposite that in the central regions ( points e\u2013f in fig . 2b , inset ) . this observation may indicate that the cp mechanism in each of these two regions is different . further experimentation is needed to elucidate the retardance properties of the copepods .", "in addition to the current partial understanding of the copepod phase retardance mechanism , the question remains of how non polarized light becomes circularly polarized , even if to a low extent , when passing through the animal ' s body . one possibility is that the incoming light is partially linearly polarized as it is refracted into or within the copepod ( such as by eye tubes ) , especially when the light is arriving from directions that are not orthogonal to the curved body carapace . this partially linearly polarized light can then interact with the platelets to produce cp .", "the role of circularly polarized light in the scarab beetle is not known [ 5 ] . stomatopods use polarization in species - specific signals related to mating and defense [ 9 ] . it should be emphasized that some species of mantis shrimp , such as odontodactylus cultrifer , can perceive and respond to cp signals , making them the only organisms with a known ability to sense circularly polarized light [ 8 ] , [ 9 ] .", "for cp light detection , we built a system ( fig . 4 ) based on a cokin\u00ae circular polarizing filter , half of which was covered from the direction of the incoming light by a \u03bb / 2 retarder ( i . e . , circular polarization handedness switching filter ) with an optical path difference of 280 nm . a step motor rotated this apparatus sequentially to four positions at 90\u00b0 intervals . at each position , the specimen was photographed via a zeiss stemi 2000 -

up pelvic fins .", "larval labrisomids are superficially similar to the larvae of gobies and scarids , which also often have a similar anal - fin row of melanophores and are very common in collections and are about the same size as labrisomid larvae . however , those larvae notably have many fewer dorsal -

segmented rays anterior to the large segmented caudal - fin rays . the transparency of fish larvae allows for an easy assessment of the number of procurrent caudal - fin rays . adjustment of the transmitted - light angle highlights bony tissues well . fortunately , the caudal - fin rays are usually preserved in otherwise - damaged larvae and they can provide diagnostic information for identifications when little else is available .", "labrisomid larvae share , to varying degrees , a basic set of melanophores that develop progressively after hatching and are very useful for identifying larvae at least to genus and often to species . the timing of the development of each marking can be somewhat variable within a species , resulting in a variety of patterns on earlier - stage larvae that preclude a simple key to species identification . late and pre - transitional larvae typically have their full complement of larval melanophores , making identifications at these larger sizes somewhat easier . during transition , however , larval melanophores begin to disappear and metamorphic melanophore patterns develop . metamorphic melanophores consist primarily of intricate patterns of small surface melanophores , usually starting on the head and spreading over the body to form the juvenile markings . this transitional sequence is also variably timed , promoting a proliferation of intermediate melanophore complements that can easily lead to the impression of a greater number of species than are actually present .", "note : a number of other melanophores are present at specific , and often diagnostic , locations on the larvae of particular species ( or groups of species ) and are discussed under the genus or species descriptions in the next sections .", "these dorsal melanophores shield the brain and are near the surface , usually on the meningeal membrane or over the skull . they can best be labeled by the quadrant of the brain they overlie , i . e . the forebrain , the smaller lobes forming a triangle between the eyes , and the large midbrain ( optic ) lobes , behind the eyes ("]} {"id": 811, "summary": [{"text": "harpa doris , common name the rose harp , is a species of sea snail , a marine gastropod mollusk in the family harpidae , the harp snails .

shaped ossicles gradually begin to appear . the body becomes rounder and the first tube - like foot emerges on the left posterior section of the body . the presence of podia is a significant precursor to the juvenile stage .", "the primary change in the juvenile stage is the appearance of tube - like feet ( which enables the organism to attach to a substrate ) and the ability to ingest food . the gut , mouth and papillae become clearly visible . in the next couple of months the juvenile sea cucumbers grow to about 1 cm in length assuming the appearance of an adult individual . the body pigmentation changes gradually from a transparent whitish appearance to a red , grey or light green colouration ( figure 2 ) . at this point the individual has reached the young sea cucumber stage .", "there is almost no morphological difference between a young and an adult sea cucumber . in a hatchery facility the movement and feeding activity of young sea cucumbers sharply decreases when the seawater temperature exceeds 23 \u00b0c . the young specimens move from the surface of the water to the bottom of the tank . for this reason it is important to maintain an optimal temperature level in the culture tanks to ensure adequate growth and reduce the length of this relatively fragile developmental stage .", "a large sea cucumber hatchery in northern china typically has the following facilities : a larvae culture volume of 2 600 m 3 divided into tanks of 10 to 20 m 3 with a depth of 1 . 4 m ; a juvenile culture volume of 4 000 m 3 divided into tanks of 30 m 3 with a depth of 1 . 7 m ( figure 3 ) ; a phytoplankton production unit with a total tank volume of 500 m 3 ; 4 filter tanks of 200 m 3 / h filtering capacity ; and 5 overhead troughs of 200 m 3 each . the facility is also fitted with a high quality water supply and drainage system as well as a heater to raise the water temperature when necessary .", "the devices used for larval settlement include metal frames each fitted with 5 - 10 polyethylene screens measuring 50 x 50 cm and used as the settlement substrate ( figure 4 ) .", "figure 3 . sea cucumber settlement device ( photo : a . lovatelli ) .", "figure 4 . sea cucumber hatchery in the vicinity of dalian , liaoning province . juvenile culture tanks ( photo : a . lovatelli ) .", "the optimum water temperature in a hatchery is between 23 and 25 \u00b0c , even though sea cucumbers can adapt to a range between 10 and 26 \u00b0c . the best salinity level is 31 . 6 , but individuals can tolerate salinities from 26 to 33 . the optimal ph is 7 . 8 , but it can range from 7 . 5 to 8 . 2 . the dissolved oxygen should be maintained at > 5 mg / litre .", "broodstock harvesting . individuals are generally collected from the 20 th june to the 20 th july in the dalian area . at that time , the seawater temperature varies from 15 to 17 \u00b0c . a few individuals are usually sacrificed and dissected in order to adequately determine the maturation stage of the gonads . specimens weighing around 300 g and measuring around 20 cm in length are generally preferred .", "considerable care is required during the collection and transportation of the sea cucumber broodstock . it is important to : 1 ) select each specimen individually ; 2 ) keep the selected sea cucumber away from any source of pollution ( e . g . oil spills from the boat engine ) ; 3 ) avoid exposing the sea cucumbers to high temperatures or violent movements during transport ; and 4 ) avoid simultaneous collection of the sea cucumbers and other marine organisms ( e . g . bivalves ) in order to avoid damaging the broodstock .", "maintaining broodstock . following collection , the sea cucumbers should be placed in a tank filled with seawater at ambient temperature . the tanks should be clean and the individuals kept at a density of 30 individuals / m 3 for 2 - 3 days . no feed is supplied . at this point the water temperature is gradually raised to 19 \u00b0c at a rate of 1 \u00b0c per day . after 7 to 10 days the broodstock can be induced to spawn . during this phase it is necessary to maintain the quality of the water in the culture tanks . water exchange should be carried out rapidly , when required .", "when the seawater temperature has been raised to 19 \u00b0c , the sea cucumber activity should be carefully monitored particularly during the night hours . the bottom of the tanks should be examined for the presence of oocytes as this is an indication that the sea cucumbers are likely to start mass release of gametes . there are two ways to induce spawning : the first method consists of drying the sea cucumber in the shade followed by a jet of violent water ; the second method uses a temperature shock by raising and lowering the water temperature by several degrees .", "the clean seawater in the tanks should be stirred gently every 30 minutes ensuring that whirlpools do not form . edta is added at a concentration of 3 - 4 ppm while the larval density is kept at about 5 larvae / ml . the hatching success may exceed 90 % .", "selection of the larvae begins before the auricularia\u0092s tube - like foot is formed , or shortly after . an hour prior to the selection process , stirring is stopped in order to allow the auriculariae to gather at the surface of the tanks . malformed larvae are unable to swim and will sink to the bottom of the tanks . the larvae gathered at the surface are collected from the uppermost 0 . 5 m of the water column with the use of a fine mesh . these are then transferred to a new tank at a density of 300 larvae / litre .", "after the appearance of the mouth in the auricularia larvae , feeding should commence immediately . early in the growth of the auricularia , the feeding regime should be in the range of 5 000 to 10 000 microalgae cells / ml . at the intermediate stage , feeding needs to be increased to about 20 000 cells / ml . monitoring the presence of algae in the stomach of the larvae helps the adjustment of the feeding regime . dunaliella is the primary algal species used and is generally mixed with diatoms and chaetoceros sp . the three micro - organisms are added in a proportion of 4 : 1 : 1 . the food mixture should be supplied in small quantities in order to maintain optimal water quality .", "rearing during the auricularia stage should be carried out in still water . water should be added to the rearing tank at a rate of 20 cm per day until the tank is filled . this usually takes approximately 3 days . once the tank is filled , one third to a half of the water should be exchanged daily using a siphon . as the larvae grow the water exchange rate should gradually increased . water exchange should be carried out gently in order to avoid injuries or loss of larvae .", "the culture of auricularia larvae requires the proper control of all major chemical and physical factors . generally speaking , the ph and salinity values should remain within the range tolerated by the larvae . stirring the water or adding new seawater will control dissolved oxygen levels . it is important to maintain the temperature at around 23 \u00b0c . if the larvae are reared in natural seawater , the temperature will rise gradually with the seasonal fluctuations . appropriate measures must be taken to maintain it within the acceptable range .", "during the larval culture , the primary harmful organisms are copepods ; however their presence can be contained through a proper water exchange protocol and the use of edta ( 3 to 4 ppm ) , if necessary .", "the primary symptoms of disease are a slow development rate of the larvae and the \u0093rotten stomach\u0094 phenomenon observed in late auriculariae . this can be caused by food deficiency or sub - optimal larval densities . the use of quality feeds and maintaining low larvae densities can minimise the outbreak of diseases .", "after the larvae have developed for 7 to 10 days , the five lipid spheres on each side of the larvae appear and the hydrocoel begins to develop . the larvae are now transforming into doliolaria . at this stage , the settlement substrates ( see figure 4 ) should be placed in the rearing tanks . the density of the larvae settled on substrate should be maintained between 1 to 2 individuals / cm 2 .", "the rearing techniques at this point of the development of the sea cucumber juveniles are very important and should be carefully applied in order to ensure a high rate of survival .", "the rearing tanks are fitted with a water flow through system . the presence of food particles and the relatively high water temperature are responsible for the proliferation of undesirable and harmful organisms , such as copepods and bacteria . the water in the tanks should be clean with a daily exchange rate of up to 200 % .", "juvenile sea cucumbers grow at different rates and it is therefore important to sort them according to their size . this is done using sieves fitted with different mesh sizes . while sorting , care should be taken not to damage or kill the juvenile sea cucumbers .", "raft culture . wooden rafts are usually located in sea areas not exposed to strong winds and tidal action . the sea cucumber cages are usually hung under the rafts or placed directly on the sea floor . during the rearing period , sea cucumbers are fed with sargassum sp . and other macroalgae . this farming method is not very popular due to the high costs involved .", "intensive farming : intensive sea cucumber aquaculture has only recently developed . large quantities of rocks or other suitable substrates ( e . g . roof tiles ) are placed in the culture ponds to increase the surface area for the juvenile sea cucumbers and to provide shelter from predators . a refrigeration system or underground water supply is used to lower the water temperature in the ponds in the summer months when high temperatures can reduce growth and feeding rates . these pond facilities are expensive and therefore intensive farming is only carried out by large and financially strong companies .", "the most suitable sea locations are rocky sites with an abundance of macrophytes and with muddy and sandy bottoms . areas protected from strong winds and tidal actions are usually favoured .", "juveniles over 1 cm in length are used when stocking directly in the sea . the larger the initial size of the juveniles , the higher the survival rate . when stocking , the juveniles are placed in bags with a mesh size of 0 . 25 - 0 . 5 cm . a diver then places the bags on the sea bottom in the vicinity of existing rocks or artificially prepared rock piles . subsequently the mesh bags are opened and the juveniles are simply left to crawl away . larger juveniles ( > 5 cm ) can be released into the sea directly .", "generally , two years after stocking , the sea cucumbers have reached a marketable size and can be collected . harvesting is often done in the spring ( mid -

to the cold canary current , which brings cool water down from northern europe . it is this temperate water that gives the island its world famous climate , for without it , temperatures would be much higher and the archipelago much dryer than it is .", "whales , dolphins and turtles are frequent visitors and big game fishermen have set world records off its coasts . close to the shore , colourful shoals of parrotfish graze on rocks that harbour moray eels and brightly coloured wrasse and damsel fish . seahorses live in the seagrass and huge rays patrol the bottom . octopus and cuttlefish are abundant , along with an almost infinite variety of smaller organisms , such as brightly coloured sea urchins , crabs and sponges .", "spaisoma ( euscarus ) cretense this is the single most famous fish species around fuerteventura . a sexually dimorphic species , the female being brightly decorated with red , yellow and blue and the male a drab greyish brown . while juveniles are often seen alone , larger viejas group together , sometimes in schools of several hundred , to feed over rocky bottoms down to 50m . feeds on invertebrates and especially crabs , relying on its prominent beak - like teeth .", "the most characteristic canarian fish much sought after by divers and fishermen alike the vieja remains an important commercial species despite heavy overfishing . a reduction in the use of nasa fish traps has seen an increase in the population around gran canaria . traditionally fished for from small craft using salted crabs on large hooks and a rod tipped with a stingray tail .", "liza aurata the most common of several mullet species around the island , the golden mullet is often seen in harbours and close to the shore . large shoals are often encountered and large

"abudefduf luridus small but spectacular , the black damsel fish is found almost everywhere but especially over rocky and weedy bottoms in shallow water . its bright blue colour and trusting nature make it a diving favourite . it can sometimes be tempted to feed from the hand and is often seen along harbour walls and in rockpools . males develop orange patches during the breeding season .", "thalassoma pavo one of the commonest and most beautiful fish in canarian waters the peacock wrasse is often found in mixed shoals along with the black damsel fish and band - tail chromis . found everywhere except over pure sand bottoms from the inter - tidal zone down to depths of 200m . males are larger with more distinctive coloration and , like many wrasse , this species can change sex .", "at night , giant manta rays sometimes come into harbours to feed around lights . a torch shone down the walls will reveal goldfish - like cardinal fish and the larger red and white glasseyes , which have large eyes that glow in torchlight . black and silver bream or \u2018sargos\u2019 are much more active at night and large , mixed groups can often be located with a torch .", "heteropriacanthus cruentatus common but nocturnal , the glasseye is found hiding in caves during the day and allows divers to approach closely . common in the cracks and crevices of harbour walls and manmade structures . like the vieja , the glasseye is susceptible to crustacean parasites . an attractive species with limited interest as a sport fish .", "polyprion americanus a deep sea species found from gibraltar to southern angola the wreckfish is an important commercial and food fish in the canary islands . found between 200m and 800m most wreckfish caught around the canaries are much smaller than the maximum .", "pseudolepidaplois scrofa found on rocky and mixed bottoms down to 150m the hogfish is an important species for traditional fishermen , even though it is listed as threatened . an attractive species , it is rarely seen by snorkelers as it prefers deeper waters . often seen in the mixed catch of small fishing vessels arriving back in port on fuerteventura .", "a trip on an inter - island ferry or a water - taxi can often be a rewarding experience for those looking for wildlife . a variety of shearwaters and petrels will be seen , flying close to the water\u2019s surface . some , such as the white - faced storm petrel are very rare and breed only on one or two of the canary islands . graceful terns are often seen around the coast , and a group of them plunging into the sea to catch small fish is a beautiful sight .", "dolphins and porpoises are common in our waters and often ride the bow waves of ferries . among the larger cetaceans , pilot whales are common and sperm and killer whales are often seen off the fuerteventura coast along with risso\u2019s dolphin . several species of turtle visit and are occasionally washed up after becoming trapped in fishing nets or fouled with oil .", "other creatures that are sighted from boats include blue and hammerhead sharks , portuguese man of war jellyfish , flying fish and manta rays .", "belone belone gracilis

guelly jack is a powerful predatory fish at the top of the coastal food chain . once a common species , it has been overfished to the point where it is rarely seen . juveniles are sometimes still found around mooring buoys and sometimes \u201cadopt\u201d divers and snorkelers , as well as large fish such as saddled bream", "scomber japonicus one of two mackerel species present in canarian waters at certain times of year along with the frigate tuna . both are fished commercially and are good fishing from small craft . large schools of small chub mackerel are sometimes found close to the shore often in the company of bogues .", "makaira nigricans an oceanic species reaching 650kg that is quite common around the canary islands and an important sport fish . several blue marlin world records have been broken around the archipelago and the waters of the canaries are famous for their large specimens . chartered fishing boats operating from the harbours of the island seek out this species . the physically similar swordfish is also occasionally caught although it prefers warmer waters .", "exocetus volitans a curious species found in small groups close to the surface . capable of leaping clear of the water and \u201cflying\u201d up to 100m using its elongated pectoral fins . a plankton feeder that is hunted by tuna , the flying fish is often seen flying away from boats and ferries around fuerteventura .", "a wide selection of shells and other objects can be collected from fuerteventura\u2019s beaches , especially after storms . among the most common are cuttlefish bones , well known due to their use as a source of calcium for canaries . they often wash up on beaches and are more often seen that the living creature . delicate spiral ramshorns also come from a seldom seen squid and are very common along the strand line . also common are the very delicate lilac shells of the janthinidae , which live under a raft of bubbles , only washing up on the shore after stormy weather .", "stranded jellyfish also wash up , sometimes in large numbers , and should not be handled as they are still capable of stinging . common shells to be found empty along the coastline of the canaries include sea urchins carapaces without the spines . these can be green , purple or brown and are as beautiful as they are fragile .", "venus ear shells are easily recognisable , with one side covered in mother of pearl . the living venus ear lives stuck under rocks , emerging after dark to graze on algae . limpets , winkles and dog whelks are common all around the canaries , while cowries , mussels , cockles and scallops also turn up . goose barnacles can be found attached to almost any piece of floating debris that has been in the water for a decent length of time .", "rockpools are perhaps the best place to see a wide selection of sealife without the need to get too wet . low tide leaves large areas of rock exposed around the coast , trapping animals that cannot normally be seen without a mask and snorkel . in general , the less time rocks are exposed to the air , the more life is found on and among them . especially low spring and neap tides expose areas that are usually underwater and these can yield very rich pickings for the naturalist . some caution is needed when exploring rockpools , as the tide comes in fast and exposed rocks can be very slippery .", "a few of the animals that are found can also cause damage . sea urchin spines snap off under the skin and cause painful injuries , while the red and white bristleworms to be found under rocks are best avoided , as their bristles irritate the skin . brown sea cucumbers exude a white fluid when handled , which is very hard t o remove from skin or clothing .", "small scorpionfish , often trapped in rockpools , have poisonous spines and large crabs can deliver nasty nips with their powerful claws . it is always best merely to observe any creatures found , as much for the observer\u2019s benefit as their own . do not forget to replace any rocks that you turn over and make sure any shells you take home do not already have a rightful owner , as hermit crabs are plentiful around fuerteventura .", "even the smallest and shallowest rockpool is likely to have fish living in it . gobies and blennies are small specialists in this particular habitat and , with patience , can be tempted to take bread or squid from the hand . baby mullet and sucker fish are also often found in the smallest pool . in deeper pools closer to the low tide mark , the number of fish species to be found increases . fulas and pejeverdes are common , while small sargos , mullet , grouper , wrasse and scorpionfish are also evident . in deep pools with caves , moray eels lurk , along with larger grouper and a wide variety of other fish .", "other organisms to be found in rockpools include small , transparent shrimps which will often come and nibble on a foot left in the water , a variety of crabs , including the hairy \u2018jaca\u2019 , which is very tasty and much sought after . grey sea hares , with black circular marks , and sea cucumbers are often found in cracks and caves , along with a wide variety of urchins , sponges and anemones . a careful search among the seaweed will often reveal small but brightly coloured sea slugs and starfish .", "bright red sally lightfoot crabs are easily spotted on exposed rocks , but are very shy . they are caught in the canaries with bait wrapped in a ball of rough thread , which tangles up their claws . at night , tubeworms extend their delicate fans and pluck small morsels from the water and crabs come out to feed , safe from the sleeping seabirds . perhaps the best way to find rockpool inhabitants is to turn over rocks and stones . this should be done very sparingly and the rocks carefully replaced as many of the creatures found under them are killed by sunlight . many rocks also have sea urchins underneath them .", "look out for brightly coloured orange and yellow sponges , shy peacrabs and the highly mobile bristlestars , which will wriggle off as soon as they detect light .", "while a wide selection of marine life can be seen from above the surface , taking the plunge and joining it underwater opens up an entirely new world . snorkel kits are widely available in most shopping centres and are very reasonably priced although , for the sake of comfort , it is often best to spend a little more than the minimum . there are dive centres in most resorts and they cater for a wide range of abilities , from absolute novices to experienced divers . in some areas , there are commercial glass - bottomed boats and even submarines , which allow you to experience the underwater world without getting wet and with the added bonus of an experienced guide .", "diplodus sargus cadenati the most common of a number of sea breams around fuerteventura , the white sea bream is present almost everywhere . it forms small shoals of different sized individuals which will often follow divers . once heavily fished , especially by speargunners , it remains an important commercial and sport fish , best sought after at night . the similar annular sea bream is smaller and closely linked to sandy bottoms and seagrass beds .", "diplodus cervinus cervinus the largest commonly encountered canarian sea bream , the zebra sea bream is a spectacular if retiring species , especially when adult . small shoals and pairs are often found over rocky and mixed bottoms down to 100m . smaller specimens are more brightly coloured and are found closer to the shore . a good , if hard to catch sport fish that has suffered at the hands of speargunners .", "diplodus vulgaris a common and easily recognised species , the 2 - banded sea bream is found over all bottoms . usually seen alone or in pairs , the juveniles group together in mixed shoals along with other sea breams . rarely larger than 20cm in fuerteventuran waters , it is of limited commercial and sport fishing interest .", "sarpa salpa one of the most frequently encountered fish in fuerteventuran waters , the salema forms large uniform schools close to the shore . in bright light , they appear blue with fine yellow stripes . a grazing species its abundance may be due to the unpleasant muddy flavour of its flesh . a good sport fish that is attracted to bread and is not afraid of divers bearing food .", "boops boops a very common species that has benefited from the overfishing of its predators . bogue populations can assumes almost plague proportions in some areas . rarely eaten as it is traditionally considered a dirty fish that feeds on the corpses of fishermen . found in open water down to 250m . an important bait fish for tunny fishing .", "gobius paganellus one of several goby species common in shallow water and the intertidal zone . best observed at low tide when they hunt fearlessly in rockpools gobies will happily eat almost anything offered to them . of no interest to fishermen due to their small size , gobies are occasionally caught accidentally .", "coryphoblennius galerita several similar blenny species are found in shallow waters and rockpools around fueeteventura . more sinuous than the gobies , blennies are also more wary . extremely common in some areas blennies are of no interest to fishermen due to their small size .", "trypterygion tripteronotus a tiny but spectacular species this blenny is found in pairs in shallow water over rocky bottoms . the brightly coloured male is instantly recognisable due to its black head and orange body . pugnacious despite its size it sometimes attacks divers\u2019 fingers , especially during the breeding season .", "ophioblennius atlanticus atlanticus the largest of the gobies and blennies around the canaries the rubber eye is recognised by its cream head and almost black body . populations can be quite dense on exposed rocky bottoms covered with diadema sea urchins and on harbour walls . aggressive with its own kind , the rubber eye is unafraid of divers . it is very seldom caught , even by accident , by fishermen .", "even areas of completely bare sand support specialist animals . small flatfish rise from the bottom if the swimmer gets too close and are well worth observing for their curious form of locomotion . they are often seen in pairs and are surprisingly curious and unafraid of divers . they have a habit of settling on the bottom and disappearing in a puff of sand , leaving only their protruding eyes above the sand .", "xyrichthys novacula the cleaver wrasse is an attractive species linked to sandy bottoms and sea grass beds , where it can be quite frequent . if disturbed it has the ability to burrow into the sand faster than the eye can follow . a favourite food of dolphins which have been observed burrowing into the sand to capture them . a good food fish with firm , white flesh .", "lithognathus mormyrus found strictly close to sandy bottoms , the herrera can form large schools of similar sized individuals . fond of bare sand bottoms exposed to breaking waves it is recognised by its elongated body , numerous pale bands and large white lips . large specimens are often encountered close to the shore . the herrera is an excellent sport and eating fish aught with rod and line from the shore or from small craft .", "synodus saurus found on rocky and sandy bottoms down to 100m the lizard fish is a voracious predator that will consume anything that fits into its considerable mouth . cannibalism is not uncommon and they have been known to swallow small fish hooked by fishermen , releasing them when pulled out of the water . easily recognised due to their shape , lizard fish are most often observed lying motionless and half buried on the bottom . a similar species is found in deeper waters .", "trachinus draco the fish species most likely to injure swimmers in the canary islands the greater weever lives on sandy bottoms down to 50m . small specimens are found buried in the sand in shallow water and have venomous dorsal spines that deliver a powerful sting to anyone unwary enough to tread on them . an attractive species with blue markings and a black dorsal fin that is understandably unafraid of divers .", "bothus podas maderensis common on sandy bottoms down to 90m , this is a subspecies endemic to the canaries and madeira . small specimens are often seen in shallow water close to beaches . instantly recognisable , the flounder is unafraid of divers and a charismatic fish . often caught from small craft by rod and line fishermen fishing on the bottom large examples make for good eating . the flounder\u2019s local name of \u201ctapaculo\u201d translates as \u201cbuttock cover\u201d .", "among the most remarkable seagrass specialist is the seahorse , very common in some areas but hard to spot and very shy . patches of floating seagrass uprooted during storms often harbour its relative the pipefish , just as shy and very well camouflaged . another notable inhabitant in the culebre , a type of eel that looks exactly like a sea snake . it often shelters in sunken car tyres and is a harmless , retiring fish . another eel lives in colonies of several hundred and spends its life half buried in the sand . if a diver approaches too closely , the eels will disappear , emerging when the coast is clear .", "stephanolepsis hispidus a common and trusting fish the yellow trigger fish is unmistakeable when encountered . while seemingly slow moving it is capable of speed if threatened . a popular food fish that must have its leathery skin removed before cooking . difficult to catch with rod and line due to its powerful teeth and patient nature it is a famous baitstealer .", "mullus surmuletus closely linked to sandy bottoms and seagrass beds , the red mullet is often found digging in the sand for invertebrates . indifferent to divers it is recognised by its prominent white barbells and elongated body . an important food fish wherever it is found the red mullet is rarely caught by rod and line fishermen in the canaries .", "hippocampus hippocampus a small and rarely seen species , the seahorse is found in seagrass beds and on weedy bottoms between 8cm and 12cm . considered rare , it is so seldom observed due to its excellent camouflage and slow movements that its exact status is unknown . the closely related pipefish also occurs around fuerteventura and can be observed around floating mats of seagrass .", "caves are also the best place to see sea urchins , in a variety of colours , sea anemones , sea cucumbers , sea hares and sponges . long - spined black sea urchins are common and have assumed plague proportions in some areas , grazing so intensively that algae has no chance to grow . areas of white rock covered in urchins are called urchin bights and tend to support fewer fish than areas without urchins . part of the problem is the overfishing of predators such as triggerfish and triton shells , which keep urchin numbers under control . some divers crush these urchins whenever they can in a bid to control them but this is not advisable , as the spines are poisonous . the urchin\u2019s long spines also provide a home for a variety of juvenile animals and small creatures , such as shrimps and spider crabs .", "epinephelus marginatus one of the stars of the diving world in the canary islands , the dusky grouper is easily tamed and will feed from divers\u2019 hands . groups of different sized individuals are often found sharing the same cave . an important commercial fish that has is now listed as threatened as it is an easy and attractive target for spear gun fishermen and has been severely overfished .", "mycteroperca fusca a benthic species that found down to 150m and quite common in places . juveniles are often seen by divers and snorkelers and a spectacular , bright yellow morph is sometimes found . threatened by over fishing and indiscriminate spear gun fishing , the comb grouper is an important sporting and commercial species .", "chromis limbatus similar to the previous species but usually found at greater depths the band - tail chromis can form large schools in open water above rocky bottoms . males develop purple backs during the breeding season . a common species seen on most dives , often in large numbers . one of the few species to thrive over rocks infested with diadema sea urchins .", "pomadasys incisus a common species known locally as the snorer due to the audible noises it makes when caught . large banks of bastard grunts are often found close to the shore and are unafraid of divers . a good sport and eating fish that is abundant partly because it rarely enters fish traps . the related striped grunt is found in small colonies between 20m and 150m . it is used by fishermen as a marker species as it lives closely linked to underwater reefs .", "canthigaster rostrata a common shallow water species that is not afraid of divers , the sharpnose pufferfish can inflate its body with water if threatened . considered poisonous by some , it is sometimes eaten after careful cleaning . a major baitstealer and linebreaker due to its powerful front teeth , it is considered a pest by fishermen .", "scorpaena scrofa one of two similar scorpionfish fund in shallow water over rocky and weedy bottoms but also down to 200m . both rely on their excellent camouflage for defence and hunting and have poisonous spines . scorpion fish are often caught by rod and line fishermen and are good eating , especially in fish soups .", "fish farming is becoming an important industry around the archipelago and will eventually be widespread enough to cope with the demand for fresh fish . it has had unforeseen consequences , as several of the species farmed are not naturally found around the islands and have escaped . the impact of these alien species is not yet understood and could seriously affect populations of native species .", "overfishing is , however , still a threat to some species and those that feed off them . whitebait netting has been banned for several years after these fish were almost driven to extinction and the jurel , a kind of jack , has almost completely disappeared from some islands due to its affinity for fish traps .", "rubbish generated by the 10m tourists passing through the islands every year also has a detrimental effect on sealife . turtles mistake plastic bags for jellyfish and swallow them and along with birds , get tangled in fishing line and plastic rings from drinks cans . the deforestation of mountain areas and continued hotel development mean rainwater erodes the soil and washes it

upper givetian aztec siltstone at mt crean , antarctica include ctenacanthid - type scales similar to those of gogoselache , that are most likely from antarctilamna prisca [ 75 ] . the acanthodian and chondrichthyan microremains in the mt crean assemblage [ 76 ] show a marked similarity to early frasnian faunas from iran [ 77 ] .", "comparing gogoselache scales with those of older taxa , the flank scales with their concave bases and polyodontode crowns resemble those of leonodus mader from the lochkovian of northern spain [ 78 ] . doliodus problematicus from the early emsian of new brunswick , canada [ 15 ] , and antarctilamna prisca young from the givetian of antarctica [ 75 ] . unlike gogoselache , all of these taxa have diplodont teeth , indicating that the scale form is probably ancestral to both shark lineages determined by tooth morphology .", "the structure of the calcified cartilage in the endoskeleton of gogoselache is of interest as an apparent transitional form between gcc and pcc . ct scans and thin sections show a calcified tissue forming the outer shell of endoskeletal elements , more derived than the simple calcified cartilage comprising separate globules found in osteostracan agnathans [ 55 ] , acanthodians [ 79 ] and some stem chondrichthyans ( fig 9a and 9b ) . placoderms differ from other gnathostomes in having perichondral bone plus globular ( gcc ) and / or uncalcified cartilage forming their endoskeleton ( fig 9c and 9d ) in instances where such elements are preserved at all [ 53 , 73 , 80 ] .", "we would like to thank field team members of the 2005 gogo expedition , l . hatcher , m . nossal , b . choo and m . karkeek ; and r . f . miller ( nbmg ) for image of doliodus calcified cartilage . we thank giar - ann hung for assistance with the sem photography at la county museum of natural history . dr adam summers , university of washington , provided helpful discussion on the cartilage histology . this work is a contribution to igcp 596 .", "conceived and designed the experiments : jal cjb jgm mic mg kmt gcy tjs . performed the experiments : jal mic tjs gcy jgm . analyzed the data : jal kmt cjb tjs gcy jgm mic mg . wrote the paper : jal cjb mg jgm mic . collection and preparation of the specimen : jal .", "schaeffer b ( 1975 ) comments on the origin and basic radiation of the gnathostome fishes with particular reference to the feeding mechanism . in : lehman j - p , editor . probl\u00e8mes actuels de pal\u00e9ontologie : evolution des vert\u00e9br\u00e9s . paris : colloques internationaux du centre national de la recherche scientifique . pp . 101\u2013109 .", "janvier p ( 1996 ) early vertebrates . oxford : oxford university press . 393 p .", "brazeau m ( 2009 ) the braincase and jaws of a devonian \u2018acanthodian\u2019 and modern gnathostome origins . nature 457 : 305\u2013308 . pmid : 19148098", "and shark - like conditions in the last common ancestor of modern gnathostomes . nature 486 : 247\u2013250 . pmid : 22699617", "zhu m , yu xb , ahlberg pe , choo b , lu j , et al .

9am . mackerel are also known as \u201cwolves of the sea\u201d and always feed with more intensity during low light periods . spaniards also have excellent eyesight and will utilise the low light conditions to ambush and seek prey .", "i have found that the best moon phase for mackerel is around the new moon . the dark skies make it extremely difficult for the fish to hunt throughout the night which makes them feed a lot more aggressively during daylight hours .", "for a number of years a gentleman\u2019s agreement has existed in the bramble cay area of the spanish mackerel fishery where fishers have worked the area in the early morning and late afternoon and have rested the fishery during the day . in 2003 industry members of the working group requested this arrangement be formalised during the months of august to december when the spawning aggregations are occurring in this area . it was also requested that the bramble cay area be designated a troll only area . this was on the basis that the area fished is very small and gear conflict could become a major issue should other permitted methods be used to target mackerel in this area . of particular concern is the potential conflict that may arise should png cross endorsed vessels choose to take up their rights to fish within the australian jurisdiction and adopt incompatible fishing methods .", "jenkins , g . p . ; milward , n . f . & hartwick , r . f . 1985 . occurrence of larvae of spanish mackerels , genus scomberomorus ( teleostei ; scombridae ) , in shelf waters of the great barrier reef . austustralian journal of marine and freshwater research 36 : 635 -

rap srx - 14 in the \u201cglass ghost\u201d colour and the 5 inch lively lures mack bait in the \u201cblue mack\u201d colour are two of my favourite swimming lures for targeting spaniards . another popular swimming lure which is commonly used for mackerel at steep point in wa is the nilsmaster invincible deep runner 15cm in the yellow belly colour .", "mackerel prefer water temperatures between 22 - 26 degrees and will often migrate down the coastline following the warm currents at the start of each summer and head back up the coast during the autumn months . along the top end of australia in areas like darwin where water temps rarely drop past 24 degrees good numbers of fish can be found almost all year round .", "surface lures such as poppers and plugs are great for attracting mackerel and can lead to some spectacular aerial strikes . large spaniards will often charge from the depths and launch at surface lures with tremendous force . on many occasions the fish will often smash the lure and miss the hooks . this can be a little frustrating at times but it\u2019s still an awesome sight to see .", "when it comes to spinning for spaniards i\u2019ve certainly gone right on with it . over the past decade i\u2019ve spent a wasted youth chasing big bar - ees from the stones . jamming a hook into one of these line burning fish is an experience that i will never get sick of and in my opinion landing a monster mackerel on a lure is what high - speed spinning is all about .", "igfa angler\u2019s digest brings you light -

dwelling animals called echinoderms . collectively this group includes echinoids ( sea urchins ) , holothurians ( sea cucumbers ) , crinoids ( feather stars ) , and ophiuriods ( brittle stars ) , the latter group closely resembling sea stars . all echinoderms share similar pentamerous radial symmetry and spiny skin characteristics , although sea stars differ slightly because they have five or more arms large enough to contain space for digestive and reproductive glands . another group of animals thought to belong to echinoderms are concentricycloids , or sea daisies . these small disc - shaped animals discovered in the abyssal seas off new zealand and bahamas in the late 1980s are considered an evolutionary forerunner to asteroids .", "sea stars have an ancient linage that shows embryologically they are not too distantly related to the phylum chordata ( back - boned animals ) . the fossil record places a form of asteroid over 300 millions years before the dinosaurs , sharing a common ancestry with ophiuroids , yet within 50 million years of their appearance they became clearly differentiated . their evolutionary path has included some bizarre taxa that have been hard to classify , yet this successful group has persisted and remain ecologically important to many marine communities worldwide .", "the skeleton of a sea star consists of small calcium carbonate plates called ossicles . these are often studded and spiny , and provide a firm but flexible skeleton of connective tissue . flexibility enables a variety of postures to be adopted without muscular effort , thus providing an effective means to capture and handle prey and allow individuals to closely follow irregular substrates in search of food . alternatively , their flexibility can enable sea stars to upright themselves if over - turned .", "the surface of a sea star looks and feels rough because of the numerous small and transparent sacs called papulae that cover the body , which provide a respiratory surface for exchanging oxygen . the upper and lower body surfaces also contain pincer - like structures called pedicellariae , which come in a variety of forms from simple modified spines to highly specialized opposing hooks . their function is to rid areas around the papulae of small organisms and debris , and in some species capture prey by detecting their presence . these are", "usually small fish or shrimp - like crustaceans on which the sea star feeds . the shape of pedicellariae is an important characteristic for asteroid taxonomy .", "sea stars have an unusual way of moving . water is taken in through the madreportite , a small , perforated plate on the upper surface of the disc , and into the water vascular system , a canal of tubes connected to the tube feet . following muscular contraction water is directed under pressure to the tube feet , which then extend under its force . movement is achieved through a coordinated stepping motion where , on muscle contraction , the feet adhere to the sediment surface , pushing the individual forward . depending on the species , tube feet have suckers that help stick the sea star to hard surfaces or assist in prying open the shells of its mollusk prey . besides involvement in prey capture ; tube feet also have a respiratory function . species with more than five arms and reproduce asexually will have numerous madreportites .", "as a group , sea stars live in virtually every habitat found in the sea , ranging from tidal pools , rocky shores , sea grass and kelp beds , beneath rock rubble , on coral reefs , sand , and mud . in some species a broad and flattened body may act as a snowshoe when foraging on very soft mud . in the upper shore , they are periodically exposed by the retreating tide , resulting in extended periods of desiccation . the only refuge is cover in moist crevices beneath rocks . by contrast , in the deep sea at depth greater than 29 , 530 ft ( 9 , 000 m ) they are found inhabiting sandy bottoms and steep cliffs .", "they are prominent seafloor predators . perhaps their success and influence comes from a unique combination of attributes . these include indeterminate growth , a morphology and digestive system generalized enough to capture , handle , and ingest many different prey types and sizes , and a sensory ability sophisticated enough to respond quickly to the presence of prey and changes in the prevailing environment . moreover , their flexible bodies and suckered tube feet enable them to adhere firmly to the seabed whilst manipulating prey , thus enabling them to survive in high stress environments by withstanding the full force of crashing waves .", "sea stars have a \" central nervous system , \" or diffuse nerve net , but lack anything identified as a brain . despite this , they are sophisticated enough to adapt to change based on previous experiences ( conditioning ) , whereby behavior that is persistently unsuccessful , usually a feeding one , is stopped .", "they are not considered social animals , yet many species tend to aggregate or swarm in large numbers during certain times of the year . these events tend to be triggered during spawning periods , feeding frenzies , or seasonal migrations to deeper waters offshore . some sea stars show avoidance behavior to other species or attraction towards members of the opposite sex . feeding is perhaps the most common cause of aggregation , where sea stars can appear in thousands to prey on mussels , oysters , or coral .", "the daily activity patterns in many sea stars are synchronized to changes in light intensity , usually around dawn and dusk . such activity may help to avoid predators and coincide sea star foraging activity with the activity of their preferred prey . in others such as astropecten irregularis , daily activity patterns are synchronized to periods of slack water on a high and low tide when velocities are low enough to optimize foraging success .", "sea stars are carnivorous , preying on sponges , shellfish , crabs , corals , worms , and even on other echinoderms . most are generalists , feeding on anything that is too slow to escape , such as mussels and clams , whilst others are specialized feeders preying exclusively on sponges , corals , bivalves , or algae . prey is located by the chemical odors emanating from its waste products or by small movements that betray its presence when detected by a sea star . food preferences can change depending on availability of prey , which change geographically and seasonally . even weather conditions in temperate species and reproductive state ( usually during gonad growth ) affects dietary requirements .", "feeding strategies can be divided into those that are scavengers , feeding mainly on decaying fish and invertebrates ; those that are deposit feeders , filling their stomachs with mud from which they extract microscopic organisms and organic matter ; and those that are suspension feeders , filtering prey and food particles from the water ( e . g . , novodinia antillensis ) .", "depending on the species , sea stars have two different feeding methods . intra - oral feeders ingest their prey into their stomach alive , sometimes distending or rupturing their disc in the process . the burrowing sand star astropecten irregularis , for example , can swallow hundreds of live juvenile mollusks during one foraging period . in some cases prey such as clams", "they have few predators as adults due to their armored spiny skeleton and rigid nature . in less heavily armored and juvenile sea stars , protection from predators comes from having a cryptic coloration . other defensives include toxic spines or skin ( e . g . , crossaster papposus and acanthaster planci ) and predator avoidance by burrowing beneath the sediment surface ( e . g . , astropecten irregularis and anseropoda placenta ) . some crabs , fish , birds , and other echinoderms are known to prey on sea stars . usually , they feed on arm tips , as their calcified bodies are difficult to eat and not very nutritious .", "some sea stars brood their young , where females hold their fertilized eggs in a brood space under the arm ( e . g . , asterina phylactica ) , in the stomach ( e . g . , leptasterias hexactis ) , or incubate them in the gonads ( e . g . , patiriella parvivipara ) . in the last two cases , young develop internally and escape through small openings the female ' s body wall called gonopores . many brooding sea stars inhabit polar and deep -

( 2003 ) , suggesting the preference for c . atratum as commented by meireles et al .

( beech ) and have a well - developed understory and shrub layer for nesting [ 24 ] . despite considerable variation in plant species composition across the breeding range , there are similarities in the habitat structure associated with the forested habitats occupied by hooded warblers . these structural similarities include forests with a high tree species diversity in the canopy and subcanopy and high density of stems in the shrub layer compared to more even aged forests with a high coverage of large saplings and understory trees [ 25 ] .", "in many species , males and females are known to require sex - specific habitat characteristics [ 26 \u2013 28 ] . for example , when there are differences between sexes in behavior contexts such as foraging [ 29 ] ; males and females may use different cues to select habitat . male hooded warblers that have been captive reared preferentially orient toward vertical structure while captive reared females orient toward oblique structure [ 30 ] . furthermore , male and female hooded warblers use structurally different habitat during the winter [ 26 , 31 ] . during the breeding season , hooded warbler males sing in the midstory and favor territories with greater vertical structure ( e . g . , mature forest with an open midstory ) to enhance territorial defense and their ability to attract mates . in contrast , females use habitats with increased understory structure ( e . g . , complex , oblique structure like in brier thickets ) for nest concealment in the shrub layer and do not exclusively use their social partner\u2019s territory during the breeding season [ 32 ] . although nest concealment was not associated with nest survival [ 33 ] , high understory coverage at the scale of the territory may increase foraging opportunities for the female and fledged young and decrease predation because predators have more substrate to search .", "being arboreal , veiled chameleons do not typically encounter standing water such as a water dish . as a result , they typically do not recognize water dishes as a source of water for hydration . they drink water from morning dew and rain as it falls onto leaves . as a result , it is important to mist your veiled chameleon with a spray bottle twice a day for approximately two minutes getting all the leaves and branches wet in the enclosure . your chameleon will lap water up from the leaves . you can also create a drip system to provide water over a prolonged period . by taking a clean plastic water jug and poking a couple small holes in the bottom , water will slowly drip out over a period of time and fall onto leaves in the enclosure below . finally , while waterfalls may seem like a nice addition to an enclosure and like they would help with humidity , chameleons are attracted to moving water sources to defecate . as a result , waterfalls quickly before cesspools filled with bacteria and can be extremely detrimental to your chameleon\u2019s health .", "the cape dwarf chameleon ( bradypodion pumilum ) is an endemic south african species that is currently threatened by habitat loss and fragmentation of its natural habitat through urbanization and agriculture . to conduct studies that will assist in understanding these anthropogenic effects on gene flow , population structure , and genetic diversity , we developed eight microsatellite loci using an . . .

[ show full abstract ]", "veiled chameleons do well in captive environments with consistent care . the first step toward successfully keeping your chameleon happy and healthy is to set up their enclosure . veiled chameleons do best in screen sided enclosures because of the increased airflow . glass tanks , on the other hand , are difficult to find in appropriate sizes and create stagnant air , which can lead to upper respiratory infections . with adult veiled chameleons , the general rule is that bigger is better as far as their enclosure is concerned . an adult male would ideally be housed in a screen enclosure around 2\u2019 x 2\u2019 x 4\u2019 tall , although they can tolerate somewhat smaller enclosures . female would ideally be kept in a screen enclosure around 18\u201d x 18\u201d x 3\u2019 tall . babies and juveniles can be kept in smaller screen enclosures ( 16\u201d x 16\u201d x 30\u201d ) until they are approximately 8 - 10 months old , at which point they will need to be moved into a larger enclosure . if you are purchasing a baby chameleon , it is best to start with a small enclosure and then move up to a larger cage when the chameleon gets older . finally , it is generally best to keep chameleons individually after they reach sexual maturity at around 8 - 10 months old to avoid potential stress and fighting .", "other easily noted characteristics of chameleons include bulging eyes that move independently of one another , feet fixed in a grasping position , and the existence of horns or crests on the heads of many species . additionally , arboreal species have prehensile tails used for grasping objects when climbing and moving . finally , some species have long extensile tongues for catching insects or small vertebrates at a distance sometimes greater than the length of the chameleon .", "veiled chameleons can change colors when they are excited , stressed , frightened or trying to blend into the environment . their eyes move independently of each other , allowing them to see two things at once . they have long , sticky tongues up to one and a half times their body length . they eat mostly live insects and are most active during the day . they are solitary , so keep only one chameleon per habitat .", "can change color to various shades of green and brown . they tend to turn dark brown when stressed or ill . when content , warm , and healthy , they tend to be green . yet this is an not always the case , their color can also be affected by environmental conditions and even food items . because of their color changing abilities they are sometimes called the \" american chameleon \" , but they are not related to true", "veiled chameleons are a large , colorful species , which are easily recognized by the large casque or helmet of males on the top of the head . with males reaching a total length of as much as 2 feet and females reaching a total length of approximately 18 inches , this is one of the larger chameleon species seen in captivity and one of the most beautiful . adults of this species exhibit coloration including different shades of green , orange , yellow , blue , browns and black with a combination of strips and spotted patterns .", ". . . nevertheless , chameleon morphology has been shown to correlate with performance in particular habitats . for example , chameleons in closedcanopy habitats , such as forests and woodlands , tend to possess relatively longer tails and larger feet than do chameleons in open - canopy habitats , such as grasslands and heathlands ( hopkins & tolley 2011 ) . this may enable them to grip harder on the broader perches found there ( losos , walton & bennett 1993 ; herrel et al . 2011 herrel et al . , 2013 ) . . . .", "a common misconception with chameleons is that they are very difficult animals to keep in captivity . fortunately , captive bred veiled chameleons purchased from a reputable breeder are actually quite hardy when provided with consistent care and a proper enclosure . in the past , it was difficult to obtain chameleons that were not wild caught . these wild caught chameleons are difficult to acclimate to captivity and often did poorly , even for experienced reptile keepers . now that dedicated , reputable chameleon breeders are reliably producing high quality veiled chameleons , this stigma is no longer an issue .", "we quantified the habitat space of males ( territory centered habitat characteristics ) and females ( nest site habitat characteristics ) during the breeding season in three structurally different forest habitats within an 80\u2013100 yr old second growth forest . one habitat was undisturbed , a second was subjected to prescribed burns , and a third forest habitat that was subjected to a selective harvest by mechanical thinning . we used this variation to determine whether individuals selected similar features across sites . moreover , we investigated whether there were differences in habitat space use between the sexes . we hypothesize that male and female hooded warblers should exploit different environmental characteristics within a habitat contingent on behavioral contexts ( e . g . , foraging , reproduction ) . we predicted each sex requires a similar habitat space along the foraging axis , but require different habitat characteristics along the territorial defense ( male ) and nesting ( female ) niche axes . we also had specific predictions for each forest habitat based on the type of disturbance . fire results in the near complete elimination of the shrub layer , which reduces the habitat space available for foraging and nest placement . thus , we predicted that males would sing and defend territories in the burned habitat but that reproductive success would be low as a consequence of unfavorable understory structure required for nest placement . overall , we predicted a reduction of the grinnelian niche space in burned habitats . mechanical thinning entails removing a fraction of the basal area of a forest to increase the amount of sunlight that penetrates the canopy and reaches the forest floor . thinned forests have increased growth in the shrub and understory layers which results in a more heterogeneous and structurally complex understory . hooded warblers are associated with canopy gaps [ 34 , 35 ] and often invade selectively logged forests 1\u20135 years post logging [ 35 \u2013 37 ] . therefore , we predicted that there would be increased reproductive success in the harvested habitat . in addition , we predicted that the habitat space would be larger and the position in habitat space would include more complex understory vegetation in the harvested habitat compared to undisturbed habitat . finally , we determined if reproductive success , as estimated by the number of fledged young per nest , is related to habitat structure . we predicted that hooded warbler nest success would be positively correlated with complex understory vegetation structure .", "we established and measured habitat characteristics in 104 habitat plots ( 11 . 3 m radius circle = 0 . 04 ha each ) that portrayed different types of use by hooded warblers following the bbird protocol [ 43 ] . we described the structure and composition of habitat available to warblers by selecting 10 random plots ( \u201crandom plot\u201d ) in each forest habitat , 100 m apart ( using a random number generator ) . we also measured vegetation characteristics in habitat plots used by hooded warblers : habitat plots were established in the center of each male ' s territory ( \u201cterritory plot\u201d ) and centered on each nest ( \u201cnest plot\u201d ) after breeding was completed . only nine random plots were retained for analysis in the harvested habitat because one territory overlapped with a random plot . the smaller size ( ~ 20 ha ) of the burn site prevented us from establishing more than five random habitat plots that were 100 m apart . we modified the bbird protocol slightly ( change in size class assignment , below ) in our estimation of canopy , shrub , and sapling cover . we recorded trees by species and size class ( 10\u201323 cm , 23\u201338 cm , > 38 cm dbh ) in the 11 . 3 m radius vegetation plots . we recorded all shrubs and saplings in a 5 m radius plot ( centered within the 11 . 3 m radius plot ) by species . we recorded the number of vertical stems at 10 cm above the ground by species and assigned to three size classes ( < 3 cm , 3\u20136 cm , and 6\u201310 cm ) .", "delimiting the habitat characteristics describing the environmental conditions required by a species has become a critical tool for predicting organismal responses to environmental change . grinnell emphasized the effects of environmental factors on the ability of a population to maintain a positive growth rate , yet few studies have included demographic or reproductive data in analyses of the grinnellian niche . identifying differences in habitat exploitation patterns in response to structural variation in the environment presents an incomplete description of the ability of species to adapt to changing habitats if demographic traits are not included . we estimated the vegetation characteristics used by individuals within a population of hooded warblers ( setophaga citrina ) across a spatial transect that includes three structurally different forest habitats . we predicted individuals should select similar structural characteristics within each habitat and have similar reproductive success across sample sites . in the two years post burn , adults were present but no young fledged indicating the habitat requirements necessary for reproduction were absent in this habitat . we found significant differences in habitat space occupied by individuals in unaltered and harvested habitats . nesting habitats used by female warblers differed from available habitat . fledging success was lower in the harvested habitat 10 to 12 years post - harvest . in the harvested habitat , fledging success was greater on mesic slopes but decreased along a habitat gradient to xeric ridgetops , suggesting compensation in habitat use does not ameliorate fitness costs . in contrast , there was no difference in the number of fledged young along this gradient in the unaltered habitat . based solely on occupancy data , traditional ecological niche models would incorrectly conclude the environmental characteristics found across the three forested habitats are included in the grinnellian niche of the hooded warbler . however , examination of demographic and environmental data simultaneously allows differentiation between occupied habitat space and niche space .", "we engaged in an exhaustive search for nests and territorial birds starting in early may through mid - july during the 2010 and 2011 breeding seasons . we varied the direction and starting location on each visit to ensure that locations within the forest were sampled at different times of day throughout the breeding season . we georeferenced all hooded warbler observations and nest locations . when observed , we identified individuals by their unique color band combinations . male territories were defined by the detection of an individual in a location on at least three survey days spanning a period greater than 10 days apart . we also used behavioral interactions ( e . g . , territorial defense ) with neighboring males following bibby et al . [ 42 ] . we monitored nests every one to three days following the breeding bird research and monitoring database program ( bbird ) protocol [ 43 ] to determine nest fate .", "the interior of the enclosure should be furnished with medium sized vines and foliage for the chameleons to hide in . the medium sized vines provide important horizontal perches for the chameleon to rest , bask and travel on . synthetic plants with plastic leaves ( not silk ) can be used in conjunction with common , non - toxic plants to provide ample foliage . commonly used non - toxic plants that can be used include ficus , schefflera , hibiscus and pothos . these live plants not only provide cover but they also help to maintain humidity inside the enclosure . the bottom of the enclosure should not have a substrate as substrates can cause impaction , provide a hiding place for feeders and harbor bacteria and fungus . instead the floor of the enclosure can be kept bare or have a layer of paper towels , which should be changed regularly .", "the approximately 180 species of chameleon come in a range of colours , and many species have the ability to change colours . chameleons are distinguished by their zygodactylous feet ; their very long , highly modified , rapidly extrudable tongues ; their swaying gait ; and crests or horns on their distinctively shaped heads . most species , the larger ones in particular , also have a prehensile tail . chameleons\u2019 eyes are independently mobile , but in aiming at a prey item , they focus forward in coordination , affording the animal stereoscopic vision . chameleons are adapted for climbing and visual hunting . they are found in warm habitats that range from rain forest to desert conditions , various species occurring in africa , madagascar , southern europe , and across southern asia as far as sri lanka . they also have been introduced to hawaii , california , and florida , and often are kept as household pets .", "veiled chameleons can be fed a staple diet of crickets . in general , crickets should be as long as your chameleon\u2019s head is wide . baby and juvenile veiled chameleons should be fed once or twice a day and have almost constant access to food . as they get older , you can feed slightly less often with adults being fed every other day . it is important to supplement your crickets with calcium and vitamins ( reptivite ) to help promote proper growth and health . this is especially important for reproductive females and growing babies and juveniles . for babies and juveniles you will need to dust your crickets with calcium two to three times a week and dust with vitamins once every two weeks . as adults , this dusting regiment can be decreased . it also helps to provide your crickets with nutritious food including collard greens , mustard greens , squash , orange and / or commercial cricket diets .", "within a population of hooded warblers , we detected differences in the habitat space occupied in relation to habitat characteristics in structurally different forest habitats . we found no difference in the size ( volume ) of habitat space used by males ( territory ) or by females ( nesting ) ; however there were differences among the centroids of habitat space in the three habitats . the centroids of the habitat space used by males and females in the unaltered and harvested habitats compared to the available habitat also suggest differences in the habitat characteristics selected by males and females . the habitat characteristics at nest locations in the harvested habitat were characterized by canopy white oaks with increased complexity in the shrub layer ( increased q . alba and q . rubra saplings and rubus spp . ) . in contrast , habitat characteristics at nests in the unaltered habitat were characterized by complex canopy structure with q . prinus in the canopy and a shrub layer dominated by smilax spp . . we also found that variation in habitat characteristics explained variation in the number of fledged young in the selective harvest but not the unaltered habitat . consistent with our prediction , females in the harvested habitat occupied habitat space that was characterized by increased understory vegetation ; however , the reduced fledging success indicates a potential reduction in niche space in this habitat . the ability to identify differences in habitat use and any corresponding differences in fitness measures can improve our understanding of how structurally different habitats affect demographic parameters within populations .", ". . . analyses of limb kinematics in chameleons are restricted to chamaeleo calyptratus , despite the fact that other genera of chameleons exhibit extensive diversity in ecology and morphology ( bickel & losos , 2002 ) . for example , there is considerable variation in species from the southern african genus bradypodion , highlighted by the recent studies of their performance , morphology , and ecology ( butler , 2005 ; resinger , stuart - fox & erasmus , 2006 ; measey , hopkins & tolley , 2009 ; stuart - fox , 2009 ; herrel et al . , 2011 herrel et al . , , 2013b hopkins & tolley , 2011 ; measey et al . , 2011 ; carne & measey , 2013 ; da silva & tolley , 2013 ; da silva et al . , 2014 ) . it has been noted that populations of the cape dwarf chameleon , bradypodion pumilum , occupy different types of habitat ( open fynbos habitat or closed canopy woodland habitats ) ( fig . 1 ) and they exhibit corresponding differences in morphology ( measey et al . , 2009 ; hopkins & tolley , 2011 ) , habitat use ( herrel et al . , 2011 ) , and locomotor performance ( herrel et al . , 2011 ) . . . .", "we monitored habitat use and reproductive success of hooded warblers at tar hollow state forest ( 39\u00b033\u20190\u201dn , 82\u00b076\u20197\u201dw ) , which is located in southern ohio within the unglaciated allegheny plateau . the primary canopy species include quercus alba ( white oak ) , quercus prinus ( chestnut oak ) , carya spp . ( hickories ) , and quercus rubus and quercus velutina ( red and black oak ; [ 38 ] ) . understory vegetation includes smilax spp . ( greenbrier ) , viburnum acerifolium ( maple - leaf viburnum ) , rubus spp . , lindera benzoin ( spicebush ) and many small - diameter saplings ( i . e . , < 10 cm dbh [ diameter at breast height ] ) . we established study sites ( 20\u201330 ha ) at three locations within the forest . we selected sites with divergent physical structure that mimicked different stages of disturbance , yet attempted to control for other environmental characteristics ( e . g . , moisture , slope , elevation ) . one site had experienced no logging for the past 80\u2013100 years ( unaltered habitat ) . another site had been thinned from below in 2001 and resulted in an approximately 25 % reduction in basal area ( harvested habitat ) . the selective harvest focused on removing midstory and subcanopy trees [ 39 ] . this manipulation created canopy gaps , but did not change overall canopy height and the density of canopy trees ( > 38 cm dbh ) . the main effect of the disturbance was to alter the understory vegetation density and species composition [ 40 ] . for example , there was an increase in early - successional saplings such as liriodenron tulipifera ( tulip tree ) and sassafrass albidum ( sassafras ) and an increase in rubus spp . the third site ( burned habitat ) had been burned during the winter or early spring prior to leaf - out in 2001 , 2005 , and 2010 . this study site had reduced understory vegetation structure and low shrub cover [ 40 , 41 ] in the years immediately following burning ( e . g . , 2010 , 2011 ) .", "an organism ' s phenotype is to some extent influenced by costs and benefits in terms of natural and sexual selection . the intensity of natural selection can in part be driven by habitat structure , which may result in varying levels of crypsis and / or selection on traits related to maximizing performance in that habitat . this may be countered by sexual selection , which can lead to sexual dimorphism in body size and / or the expression of conspicuous ornamentation relating to maximizing reproductive success . the intensity of these forces can also be different between the sexes , resulting in complex patterns of phenotypic variation . with this in mind , we examined morphological variation within the cape dwarf chameleon , bradypodion pumilum . the species inhabits two geographically disjunct habitat types and , in the present study , we demonstrate that chameleons from the two habitats show morphological differences . large , conspicuous individuals inhabit closed vegetation , whereas small , drab individuals inhabit open vegetation . however , when morphological traits are size - adjusted , the open vegetation morph displays many traits that are larger for its body size than the closed vegetation morph , especially for characters related to locomotion ( limbs ) and bite force ( head width ) . sexual dimorphism is also present , although the degree and number of dimorphic characters was very different between the two morphs , with size - adjusted male - biased dimorphism much more pronounced in the closed morph . overall , our findings suggest that natural selection in open habitats limits both body size and conspicuous characters , although sexual selection in closed habitats favours the development of ornamentation related to display . \u00a9 2011 the linnean society of london , biological journal of the linnean society , 2011 , 102 , 878\u2013888 .", "species account : this species is native to the southwestern coastal regions of saudi arabia and western yemen , where it inhabits mountainous coastal regions , inland river valleys , and agricultural lands where there is more moisture . in a 1 -

60 ( up to 85 ) eggs are typically laid per clutch , and 3 - 5 clutches may be laid annually . females are sexually mature at ca . 5 - 6 months old , and a female that is receptive to breeding will often develop bright blue spots ( fife 1999 ) . in the presence of males , gravid females change from light green to almost black with bright mustard and turquoise markings . chameleon eggs often go through a diapause , or rest , period , and they typically take 6 -

derived gastropods use a penis to copulate or exchange spermatophores and produce eggs surrounded by protective capsules or jelly ( see busycon spiratus photo below ) .", "the first gastropod larval stage is typically a trochophore that transforms into a veliger and then settles and undergoes metamorphosis to form a juvenile snail . while many marine species undergo larval development , there are also numerous marine taxa that have direct development , this mode being the norm in freshwater and terrestrial taxa . brooding of developing embryos is widely distributed throughout the gastropods , as are sporadic occurrences of hermaphrodism in the non - heterobranch taxa .", "the basal groups have non - feeding larvae while veligers of many neritopsines , caenogastropods , and heterobranchs are planktotrophic . egg size is reflected in the initial size of the juvenile shell or protoconch and this feature has been useful in distinguishing feeding and non - feeding taxa in both recent and fossil taxa .", "gastropods are characterized by the possession of a single ( often coiled ) shell , although this is lost in some slug groups , and a body that has undergone torsion so that the pallial cavity faces forwards . they have a well - developed head bearing a pair of cephalic tentacles and eyes that are primitively situated near the outer bases of the tentacles . in some taxa the eyes are located on short to long eye stalks . the mantle edge in some taxa is extended anteriorly to form an inhalant siphon and this is sometimes associated with an elongation of the shell opening ( aperture ) \u0097 this is shown in the photo of the caenogastropod", "the shell is typically coiled , usually dextrally , the axis of coiling being around a central columella to which a large retractor muscle is attached . the uppermost part of the shell is formed from the larval shell ( the protoconch ) . the shell is partly or entirely lost in the juveniles or adults of some groups , with total loss occurring in several groups of land slugs and sea slugs ( nudibranchs ) .", "from left , a whelk , busycon spiratus , almost entirely out of its shell \u0097 the yellowish disc is the operculum ;

laying date advanced by about 9 days between 1959 and 1991 , most likely as a result of higher air temperatures during the spring breeding season .", "the use of museum collections is so widespread , and the scope of research they benefit is so varied , that it would be impossible to review even a small fraction of individual cases . only by considering the frequency with which museums are used can their vast contributions to the biological sciences be properly appreciated ( tables 1 , 2 ) .", "scientists often travel to museums to use their collections , and museums loan many specimens to interested researchers ( table 1 ) . for example , in 2002 , the entomology department of the smithsonian institution ' s national museum of natural history hosted 266 visitors , for a total of 3663 visitor days ( scott miller , smithsonian institution , washington , dc , personal communication , 10 february 2003 ) . between 1976 and 1986 , the smithsonian ' s entomological collection loaned , on average , over 100 , 000 specimens each year ( miller 1991 ) . the california academy of sciences ' entomological collection currently has about 750 , 000 specimens on loan to over 40 countries ( norman penny , california academy of sciences , san francisco , personal communication , 4 april 2003 ) .", "the knowledge disseminated by the curators of these museums is immense and often stems from the reference collections themselves . for example , one curator ( philip s . ward ) from one museum ( bohart museum , university of california\u2013davis ) studying one family of insects ( formicidae\u2014ants ) typically identifies 3000 to 4000 specimens each year for other institutions ( philip s . ward , university of california\u2013davis , personal communication , 9 january 2003 ) . when extrapolated across curators of all museums in the united states , how many hundreds of thousands of such identifications are made each year ?", "museums save time and money . first , as centralized storehouses of reference material , museums act as \u201cbiological libraries\u201d\u2014sites of accumulated knowledge and resources that eliminate the need for costly , time - consuming ( and sometimes dangerous ) fieldwork . given the costs of traveling to remote locales to collect specimens , it is easy to believe that museum collections save the scientific community many millions of dollars , a savings that is passed on to citizens whose tax dollars often support scientific research .", "second , as with literary libraries , museums eliminate the wastefulness of duplication and redundancy . just as a library liberates borrowers from the expense of purchasing every book they wish to read , museums free researchers from the time and expense of curating all the specimens necessary for a functional reference collection . although a fiscal analysis of the savings achieved by the nation ' s biological collections is not available , a comparison with other collections provides an insightful approximation . the us library of congress , which curates a large collection of reading material , saves the nation ' s libraries $ 268 million a year by cataloging more than 250 , 000 books and serials annually and supplying the bibliographic record ( librarian of congress 2000 ) .", "how can the survival of these assets and the untapped knowledge they contain be guaranteed ? first , these collections must be well curated and maintained , which will require a commitment to support and train taxonomists and to maintain modern facilities . second , the benefit of these collections to society must be maximized by stepping up the rate at which this information is entered in databases and made accessible .", "we would like to thank colin favret , dina fonseca , richard grosberg , penny gullan , scott miller , craig moritz , norman penny , george roderick , ted schultz , david wake , phil ward , and two anonymous reviewers for support and insightful discussion . we would also like to thank chip clark for providing the wonderful images that accompany this article . financial support was provided by the university of california\u2013davis , center for population biology ( n . d . t . ) , and the miller institute for basic research in science ( a . v . s . ) .", "table 1 . examples of some of the largest entomological collections in the united states , including approximate collection size ( number of processed specimens ) and a yearly estimate of loaned material .", "table 2 . the number of articles from some leading journals that relied on museums for support and data .", "ornithologist roxie laybourne amid the bird collection at the national museum of natural history ( smithsonian institution ) . photograph : chip clark .", "egg collections such as these from the national museum of natural history ( smithsonian institution ) have provided insight into the effects of toxin accumulation in the environment ( ratcliffe 1967 , hickey and anderson 1968 ) . photograph : chip clark .", "museum collections of small mammals have been used to identify reservoirs of hantavirus ( yates et al . 2002 ) , reconstruct community structure in relation to habitat modification ( pergams and nyberg 2001 ) , and even build a predictive framework for crop pests ( sanchez -

( 2006 ) found that morphological species of rivacindela beetles diagnosed using male genitalic traits were only loosely correlated with a classification obtained by dna barcoding and that several morphological species were incongruent with the mtdna phylogeny . pons et al . ( 2006 ) also compared results from dna taxonomy ( based on analysis of branch length patterns ) in beetles to results obtained from morphological analyses that included genitalia , and their results suggest that mtdna - based barcoding may be conservative compared with morphology - based methods . in a related analysis , hickerson et al . ( their fig . 5 2006 ) summarized a range of empirical studies and found that pairwise mtdna genetic distances were poor predictors of the degree of reproductive isolation .", "when mate - attracting signals can be easily measured ( mainly acoustic , vibratory , visual\u2014and typically of males ) , the characters comprising these signals often distinguish closest relatives more effectively than do genitalia or other morphological attributes , an observation that may be related to ( 1 ) greater evolutionary lability of behavioral traits and ( 2 ) the fact that sexual signals function earlier in the mating sequence ( alexander 1964 , alexander et al . 1997 ) . these qualities make sexual pair - forming signals attractive as taxonomic indicators and potentially useful for examining the correspondence of mtdna phylogeography with early stages of phenotypic divergence and reproductive isolation ( e . g . , salzburger et al . 2002 ) .", "phylogenetic analysis was conducted using maximum likelihood ( ml ) because of the need for good branch - length estimates . maximum parsimony methods do not correct for multiple hits , and branch lengths in bayesian likelihood\u2013based analyses can be strongly affected by choices of prior probability distributions ( e . g . , marshall et al . 2006 , brown 2010 , marshall 2010 ) . we used garli - part version 0 . 97 ( see zwickl 2006 ) to obtain our phylogenetic tree . garli - part allows data partitioning , which has been shown to lead to improvements in phylogenetic inference in bayesian likelihood - based analyses ( e . g . , nylander et al . 2004 , brown and lemmon 2007 ) as well as in genetic distance estimates ( papadopoulou et al . 2010 ) .", "in the ml analysis , five independent partitioned garli runs from random starting trees , using the best - fit model for each data partition , were conducted to verify repeatable convergence on a single best topology and branch length solution . node support was estimated by a nonparametric bootstrap of 100 pseudoreplicates , implemented in a separate garli analysis .", "field recordings of cicada song were made using a sony tcd - d8 dat digital recorder , a marantz pmd - 660 compact flash recorder , or a marantz pmd - 670 compact flash recorder , combined with a sennheiser me - 62 omnidirectional microphone mounted in a sony pbr - 330 parabolic reflector . songs were sampled at 44 . 1 or 48 khz . canary version 1 . 2 . 1 ( cornell bioacoustics laboratory , ithaca , ny ) was used to visualize song patterns in the form of oscillograms ( plots of sound intensity over time or waveforms ) .", "homology assessments of song characters are facilitated by knowledge of which male song element elicits female replies ( song structure across the genus is shown in fig . 1 ) . ad hoc trials using simulated female wing - flick replies ( e . g . , finger snaps ) and free - flying males allowed us to determine the correct placement of the female reply for each of the song types . males of all taxa flew readily to the observer when simulated wing flicks were made only after the correct cueing component of the song ( see the caption of fig . 1 ) . in many species , the cue is repeated several times in series and / or alternated with an additional song element ( minor - cue ) that does not elicit female replies .", "the statistical correlation between song phenotype and mtdna haplotype was examined using arlequin v 3 . 1 . 1 ( excoffier et al . 2005 ) . individual sequences were grouped according to song phenotype ( as coded in fig . 2 of results ) , and an analysis of molecular variance was conducted to estimate the fraction of genetic variation explained by the resulting song groupings . significance was assessed using a null distribution of the test statistic obtained using 1000 random permutations of the data .", "the gmyc model was fitted to the resulting chronogram in r across the interval range from 0 to 10 ( wider interval settings were explored to confirm that this did not change the outcome ) . both single - and multiple - threshold models were examined using the log - likelihood test provided in the gmyc package . because initial results identified nearly all the tip branches as putative species , we re - ran the analyses with identical haplotypes reduced to single exemplars following ahrens et al . ( 2007 ) . the gmyc package also produced a lineage - through - time ( ltt ) plot , which we visually evaluated for changes in branching rate .", "to compare dna divergence levels of candidate species , pairwise genetic distance values were calculated in paup * for all the mtdna clades identified using the gmyc technique plus three geographically coherent clades identified visually and diagnosed in some preliminary analyses . for each clade , two sequences were selected to represent the maximum and minimum root - to - tip distance within the group . then , the distance between two clades was estimated using the average of the four interclade distances measured between the representative sequences . uncorrected ( p ) pairwise distances were calculated as well as with model - corrected ml distances using the model parameters estimated from the garli analysis . finally , the same pairwise distance relationships were calculated by summing path lengths on the ml tree for comparison with the paup * distances . for these comparisons , haplotypes corresponding to isolated cases of hybridization in contact zones ( see below ) were excluded .", "the best - fitting model for the first data partition ( first - and second codon positions ) was gtr + i + \u03b3 , whereas gtr + \u03b3 was best fitting for the third codon positions . the akaike information criterion weights for the best - fit model were 0 . 895 and 0 . 760 , respectively , for the first - and second position sites combined and for the third position sites alone .", "notes : descriptions of characters are as follows : a , introductory section present : 0 = no , 1 = yes ; b , introductory section form : 0 = syllable rate uniform ( \u201cbuzz\u201d ) , 1 = syllable rate accelerating ( \u201czeet\u201d ) ; c , delay before cueing section : 0 = equal to delay between major song cues , 1 = half as long ; d , minor - cue : 0 = absent , 1 = present ; e , primary doublet form : 0 = out - click suppressed , much quieter than in - click , 1 = in - and out - clicks both loud , often equal amplitude . this song character is correlated with a morphological difference in the timbal ( 0 = five ribs , 1 = four ribs ) ; f , extended cueing section : 0 = absent , 1 = present . species with an extended cueing section produce more than 50 repeated cues in the average cueing phrase ; g , amplitude modulation pattern of introductory section : 0 = absent ( steady amplitude ) , 1 = high\u2013low\u2013high , 2 = low\u2013high .", "additional gmyc analyses conducted with congeneric sequences removed ( all k . muta complex data only , muta group only , and westlandica group only ) did not give the same results as the whole - genus analysis . some tests failed to find a statistically significant shift in branching rate , and all yielded different sets of diagnosed mtdna clades ( data not shown ) .", "the tcs analysis diagnosed 9 geographically coherent mtdna clades ( fig . 5 ) , 5 of them matching song - defined groups ( note that the clade containing groups m1 and m2 is geographically coherent when the distribution of alluvial lowlands is considered ) . six of these ( n1 , n2 , n3 , aw , t , and ws1 ) corresponded to clades diagnosed using the gmyc method .", "uncorrected mtdna sequence divergence ( concatenated coi + coii ) within the k . muta complex ranged up to 6 . 7 % for comparisons between individuals of the most divergent k . muta groups ( table 6 ) . this maximum corresponds to an ml model\u2013corrected distance of 0 . 104 expected substitutions / site . pairwise distances inferred by summing branch lengths on the ml tree were larger than the paup * - corrected pairwise distances , with the maximum contrast reaching 0 . 116 s / s ( data not shown ) , presumably because of the influence of topological information on model parameter estimates .", "when individual cases of likely hybridization and introgression were excluded from consideration ( see below ) , average uncorrected distances between mtdna clades within individual song species ranged from 0 . 7 % to 2 . 4 % in most cases ( 0 . 008\u20130 . 028 s / s , model - corrected distance ) ( see gray cells in table 6 ) . contrasts involving likely hybridization in contact zones ( not shown , and excluded from outlined cells in table 6 ) , involved much larger pairwise distances ranging up to 0 . 060 uncorrected s / s ( 0 . 087 s / s corrected distance ) . no genetic \u201cgap\u201d or break - separated values of within song\u2013species contrasts from between song\u2013species contrasts , and identical values were observed in comparisons of some within - and between - species contrasts ( e . g . , n1 or n2 vs . t3 in table 6 ) .", "comparatively few species have been described solely on the basis of sexual mate attracting signals . the taxonomic significance of songs in the \u201csinging insects\u201d ( crickets , katydids , and cicadas ) was not recognized until the early 20th century ( e . g . , fulton 1915 , davis 1922 , alexander 1964 ) , and the use of songs in taxonomic studies has been steadily increasing ( e . g . , lloyd 1990 , henry 1994 , otte 1994 , marshall and cooley 2000 , percy et al . 2006 , sueur and puissant 2007 , sueur et al . 2007 , gogala et al . 2008 , tobias et al . 2010 ) . our results validate the anticipated utility of sexual signals for identifying clades in the earliest stages of population differentiation .", "the genetic distance estimates suggest no clear genetic \u201cbreak , \u201d or bimodal distribution , to support a threshold that could be applied to distinguish \u201cintraspecific\u201d and \u201cinterspecific\u201d comparisons in our mtdna trees ( see also mallet et al . 2007 ) . early studies suggesting that such gaps are prevalent may have suffered from insufficient geographic or population sampling within species ( moritz and cicero 2004 ) , so there may be little hope for automated species delimitation based on such thresholds ( see also meyer and paulay 2005 , vogler and monaghan 2007 ) .", "interestingly , the gmyc single - threshold model also grouped six of the non - k . muta congeners into three clusters of two species each . one of these splits , k . cutora exulis and k . cutora cutora , involves a kermadec islands subspecies with minimal , if any , song divergence from its north island relative and another , k . rosea rosea and acoustica , involves two taxa with minimal song divergence . the third , murihikua and k . angusta , is a suspected case of recent mtdna introgression ( see above ) . although additional refinements of the gmyc technique are apparently needed before it can be applied in a repeatable manner across data sets , it does appear that the single - threshold method can serve as a useful heuristic tool for detecting independent lineages when used in combination with other information .", "although songs in the k . muta complex seem to change reliably soon after lineages begin to diverge ( fig . 4b ) , we know from other groups that song evolution does not always precede significant morphological and / or ecological divergence . for example , r . leptomera , a beach - grass cicada of north island , and r . microdora , a shrub cicada of the eastern north and south islands , are morphologically and ecologically distinctive , yet their complex songs are all but identical ( see also maoricicada iolanthe and m . campbelli \u2014 buckley et al . 2006 ) . failure of advertisement signals to distinguish some morphologically identifiable species was also noted in a recent study of neotropical frogs ( padial et al . 2009 ) . such examples are rare ; however , we are aware of fewer than 10 cases out of the hundreds of morphologically distinctive species that we have recorded .", "this work was supported by the national science foundation [ deb 05 -

poor resource , mutualistic symbioses between bacteria and their eukaryotic hosts allow animals to feed on a diversity of diets that would otherwise be inaccessible to the host . such beneficial endosymbionts can provide essential amino acids and vitamins lacking in the host diet , or they can synthesize novel enzymes , such as cellulases and hydrolases , to degrade otherwise indigestible materials like cellulose , lignin , and chitin [ 9 , 10 ] . these mutualisms are seen in animals ranging from cellulose feeding vertebrates to wood - , sap - , and blood - feeding insects [ 9 ] . in insects , mutualistic endosymbionts frequently supplement the host with essential amino acids and vitamins missing from their food source [ 10 , 11 ] . this supplementation may be provided primarily by one symbiont species , as in the aphid - buchnera system [ 12 , 13 ] , or by a community of symbionts , such as in termites [ 14 , 15 ] .", "no matter the number of beneficial endosymbionts , the faithful transmission of these specific mutualists from parent to offspring is essential for offspring survival . there are two broad categories of transmission : vertical transmission , where symbionts are acquired from the parent , and horizontal transmission , where they are not [ 9 , 16 ] . in the dung beetle system , horizontal transmission could be from many sources including adult siblings , other insect taxa including other species of dung beetles , and host dung . vertical transmission is the dominant transmission type in evolutionarily stable , obligate insect - bacterial nutritional mutualisms . vertically transmitted endosymbionts are frequently transmitted transovarially , though alternate methods of transmission from parents to offspring are known [ 9 , 16 ] . these include endosymbiont transmission through proctodeal trophallaxis [ 17 ] , milk glands [ 18 , 19 ] , coprophagy [ 20 ] , egg smearing [ 21 , 22 ] , capsules [ 23 ] , and brood chambers [ 24 ] .", "the clovr pipeline with chimera check [ 51 ] was run on 275 sequences for a 1425 bp amplicon of the 16s rrna gene . clovr uses scripts from qiime [ 52 ] to cluster reads into operational taxonomic units ( otus ) , select representative sequences from each otu , and use the ribosomal database na\u00efve bayesian classifier ( 0 . 5 confidence interval ) to assign each otu to a known taxon [ 53 ] . the nucleotide sequence identity within an otu is 95 % . otu\u2019s ( n = 22 ) that had less than an 80 % confidence with rdp were not classified [ 54 , 55 ] . clovr uses scripts from mothur [ 56 ] to plot rarefaction curves of richness and diversity , which were calculated every five sequences [ 53 , 57 ] .", "to assess the relatedness of 16s rrna sequences , sequences were aligned with muscle v3 . 7 [", "] , visualized and trimmed with bioedit v7 . 1 . 3 . 0 [", "substitution model , random seeds of 12345 , and 100 bootstraps . the best tree as ascertained by raxml is shown and is decorated with symbols denoting the key characteristics of the sample . percent similarity was determined between all sequences (", "to compare the microbiome community composition of the cultured isolates to the microbiome community found using molecular methods , all cultured isolates were screened using previously described degenerate primer sets designed for 10 single copy loci . the", "] amplified the majority of the cultured isolates . cultured isolates that amplified with the", "amplicons sequenced from cultured bacteria isolated from the dung beetle larval digestive system . for the constrained analysis , the concatenated", "from cultured isolates : kf193370 -

1507r [ 21 , 62 ] yielded the ~ 1500 bp amplicon and served as a positive control ( figure s1 , lane + ) . the negative control with sterile water as the template did not produce an amplicon ( figure s1 , lane -

dependent and - independent techniques .", "an unrooted phylogenomic tree based on 287 loci from 1095 sequenced bacterial genomes was made as a skeletal tree on which was placed the lepa and gyrb sequences from 16 bacterial cultures isolated from the digestive system of four different 3 rd instar larvae from female parent 2 from the north carolina population . this analysis placed the isolates sister to ( a ) providencia stuartii , ( b ) enterobacter cloacae , ( c ) pusillimonas , ( d ) pedobacter heparinus , and ( e ) lysinibacillus sphaericus .", "several offspring and their female parents have bacteria with 100 % identical 16s rrna sequencing , suggesting vertical transmission through the brood ball and its contents ( figure s3 and table s3 ) . for example in the north carolina samples , one sequence was recovered five times from the female parent , four times from the 2 nd instar larva , and five times from the 3 rd instar larvae ( table s3 ) . additionally , otu\u2019s classified as alcaligenes and pasteurella are similar between one of the female parents and the cultured isolates from a different female parent . deeper sequencing of individuals may reveal more shared bacterial otus .", "rarefaction curves of the microbial community in several larvae and the in parental female beetle suggests that additional sampling was needed to identify additional taxa in the microbiome ( figure s4 ) . the rarefaction curves of the nc parental female beetle ( 35 sequenced clones ) and of a second larval instar ( 20 sequenced clones ) suggests that microbiome taxonomic sampling to be close to saturation ( figure s4 ) . the highest bacterial taxonomic richness was isolated from the larval samples and the in parental female , and lower richness was sampled in pupae and in the nc parental female . however , different primer sets and deeper sampling may amplify a wider diversity of bacterial taxa .", "these initial results suggest that deeper sequencing of individuals may reveal more shared bacterial otus . the primers used are biased for amplifying \u03b3 - proteobacteria , thus additional taxa may be identified using different primers . lastly , some bacteria from the dung also may have a role in the microbiome of beetles in the wild . while , it is not a subject of this study such studies may be fruitful .", "collectively , the sterile rearing conditions , overlap of the microbiome between female parent and offspring , specialized dung processing behavior , and bacterial colonies found in the matrix on the brood ball chamber walls , but absent from other locations in the brood ball , suggest that the o . taurus microbiome is maternally transmitted via the brood ball .", "the transmission from mother through the brood ball to offspring may be essential for provisioning specific beetle endosymbionts to the offspring since dung beetles develop in an environment rich with other microbes that were excreted from the digestive tract of the mammalian host , as well as bacteria from the soil . thus , the brood ball provides offspring not only with a safe refuge and food , but it is likely that the female parent additionally provisions a microbiome alongside the egg . however , future experimental validation is needed to further test this hypothesis .", "vertical transmission via the brood ball may favor organisms that are culturable on standard microbiological media , as the bacteria must persist in an external environment prior to ingestion by the larvae . our analyses based on separate loci for the cloning versus culture - based assays reveals shared bacterial taxa , suggesting a portion of the microbiome is culturable . this is in contrast to relative unculturability of the majority of vertically transmitted endosymbionts that have been studied thus far in insects .", "our data suggest that the dung beetle , o . taurus , has endosymbionts that are vertically transmitted in a unique method \u2013 via a brood ball . several of the endosymbionts are culturable . due to the manipulability of the system , the dung beetle symbiosis may be an ideal system to understand how host and microbes co - operate , and perhaps co - evolve , to thrive on nutritionally unbalanced diets . additionally , these data suggest that the essential ecosystem function of dung beetles , the degradation of cellulose -

.", "in his introduction , gombrich explores two very characteristic themes essential to an understanding of his subsequent work , and which it is slightly surprising and pleasing to find announced so unequivocally close to the beginning of his scholarly career . the first is the need for the artist to experience freedom from political or religious constraints . he describes this by comparing the two versions of saint matthew that caravaggio undertook as a commission for the church of san luigi dei francesi in rome . the first version was a great work of realism in which the angel is leaning a long , spindly arm towards the relatively rustic hand of saint matthew . the work was rejected as being too naturalistic and was later destroyed by bombs during the second world war . caravaggio then painted a slightly more idealised and conventional version , still in san luigi in rome . gombrich describes how \" the outcome is still quite a good picture , for caravaggio had tried hard to make it look lively and interesting , but we feel that it is less honest and sincere than the first had been . \" given that gombrich was commissioned to write the book while working as a translator for the bbc ' s monitoring service , it is impossible not to recognise his profound belief in the moral freedom of the artist from any form of coercion .", "gombrich ' s second introductory description is of the intense compositional struggle that lay behind raphael ' s painting madonna of the meadow in the kunsthistorisches museum in vienna . art was viewed not as a product of aesthetics , but more as a result of visual observation , which is then ordered and structured by graphic experiment , closely akin in terms of visual procedure to the work of caricature . this announces some of the themes and intellectual interests that later led to his greatest work in art and illusion , and was a consequence of his close friendship with the art historian and psychoanalyst ernst kris ."]} {"id": 1773,

3cm should be sufficient .", "since kiss doesn ' t allow you to test your motor rotation without a bound transmitter , you ' ll want to wire up your receiver first . this is fairly straightforward , so just refer to the photos to learn the wire positions . to prepare the fc pads , add a little flux and create a nice shiny pillow of solder . the key is to leave none of the copper pad showing . this is where a quality iron is important . if the solder makes a pointy bit as you pull away you either aren ' t operating at a high enough temperature ( 750 to 800 degrees ) or your iron tip lacks sufficient flux .", "now you need to bind your rx and test the motor rotation . first download the latest kiss \" cc \" fc firmware and install kissfc to google chrome . to update the firmware open kissfc , plug the usb cable into your flight controller , hold the boot button and plug the other end into your computer . while continuing to hold the button choose the firmware you downloaded and flash it . if you let go too early the process will fail .", "after the firmware has been updated , attach a lipo , connect to the board and click \" data output \" to test the motor rotation . i normally rub each motor to feel the rotation direction . for any motor that spins the incorrect direction solder the corresponding jp1 jumper for that motor . refer to the kiss compactctrl \" cc \" manual for details .", "once you ' ve completed these steps you can mount your rx and antennas . what i did was use a couple layers of double sided tape to prevent any potential shorts against the flight controller . using wide shrink tube would be a better solution , but i had none wide enough for this rx . the antennas are incredibly long , so i rotated the u . fl connectors 180 degrees to send the antennas forward . i wrapped them around the standoffs across to the other side , and out behind the front arms . if you do it just right you ' ll manage 2in of zip tie for the tips of both antennas .", "now you can assemble the canopy and wire the camera and vtx . be sure to mount the antenna holder flat side out so the wings of the pigtail catch the lip . this prevents the pigtail from rotating as you attach your antenna . since we ' ll eventually be using tbs smartaudio , you can solder the audio wire of the vtx to the tx pad of the fc . now depending on which version of the tbs unify you ' re using ( hv or 5v ) you ' ll either want to solder the power leads to the lipo input pads or the rx 5v / gnd pads . once you ' ve done this you can solder the runcam wires to the vtx wires to complete the wiring . just be sure to leave enough slack to remove the canopy .", "now you can attach the canopy being careful not to pinch any motor wires . i found that the pigtail can assert just enough pressure to hold the vtx to the top of the rx , so i didn ' t use any tape to hold it down . it seems to fit just right behind the camera , so i don ' t believe it ' ll be moving around in there . be sure to loctite your motors and you should be ready to maiden !", "i ' ve been itching to fly this one . i ' ll see if i can take a screenshot when i get in there .", "i can get about 3 minutes on an 850mah 4s pack . i haven ' t tried anything larger .", "battery on the bottom and i ' ve got a mobius mini mount that fits directly on top placing the camera at an angle over the fpv cam cage . it ' s a great fit !", "first of all , impeccable build . . . as a retired rf engineer , i really appreciate excellent workmanship and you ' ve done it here . do you have any photos of the mobius mini mounted to this frame ? i would love to see the mounting system . congrats . . . a beautiful piece of work .", "thank you ! i haven ' t mounted the mobius mini on this one , but i do fly it with a foxeer legend 3 . here ' s a photo :", "looks pretty good , looks like a good option for sub 5 \" builds . thanks for the reply . . . cheers , dave", "it ' s a great little cam . i ' d say the image quality is more or less on par with the session 5 .", "that ' s impressive . . . thanks again for your input , it really helps a lot . happy landings . . .", "hi ! i can ' t stop watching this beauty , thanks for posting it ! i love it and i ' ll build it with the exact same setup but 3 \" . i was wondering how much does it weigh ?

evaluated with additional data . since their results are still somewhat contentious , they have yet to initiate changes in our classification system .", "in 1987 , two differing hypotheses of order level relationships were proposed based on analyses of morphological characteristics ( blake 1987 , gale 1987 , figure 6 , 7 ) . these two phylogenies differ due to differences in opinion about character polarity ( assigning ancestral or derived status to a particular state of a character ) and the different morphological characters used in the analyses ( note that gale does not specifically use phylogenetic methods ) . both authors emphasized the importance of ambulacral characters to asteroid classification and recognized the distinction between paleozoic and post - paleozoic forms ( i . e . ambuloasteroidea , blake and hagdorn 2003 ) .", "however , gale ( following mcknight 1975 ) focuses on the lack of suckered tubefeet in the paxillosida , considering them primitive . as a result , his phylogeny reflects two major groups : a basal paxillosida and the remaining asteroids , all having suckered tubefeet , which he termed superorder surculifera . blake considers suckered tubefeet to be the ancestral condition . his phylogeny reflects two major asteroid groups : superorder forcipulatacea ( forcipulatida + brisingida ) and a clade of the superorders valvatacea + spinulosacea ( valvatida , notomyotida , paxillosida , spinulosida and velatida ) . outgroup comparison with calliasterella and inclusion of the trichasteropsida results in a basal forcipulatacea .", "the differences in these proposed phylogenies highlight questions about asteroid relationships that are still unresolved . the identification of the basal ( neo ) asteroid group has been the driving question of additional studies ( see evidence from molecular characters , below ) . additionally , ordinal definition , particularly for blake ' s valvatida , velatida and spinulosida , is problematic . such problems were not new to blake and gale . although many asteroid groups can be clearly defined morphologically ( forcipulatida , brisingida , notomyotida ) , asteroid morphology is complex and diverse . other groups are less clearly defined .", "additional phylogenetic analyses incorporating molecular data with morphological data ( lafay et al . 1995 ) and using molecular data alone ( wada et al . 1996 ; knott and wray 2000 ) were presented in an effort to resolve phylogenetic arguments . unexpectedly , these studies have done little to elucidate asteroid relationships and may have only added to the confusion .", "lafay et al . ( 1995 ) present an unrooted phylogeny deduced from analysis of a combined morphological data set taken from blake ( 1987 ) and gale ( 1987 ) with unordered character states ( figure 8 ) . although very few taxa were studied , their phylogeny supports the definition of asteroid orders proposed by blake but separates the paxillosida from the valvatida . their analysis with molecular data alone ( sequence data from 28s rrna ) results in several conflicting topologies due to weak phylogenetic signal . most of this signal is masked by that from the morphological data set when the two data sets are combined . however , after evaluating several rooting positions using molecular data from other echinoderms in outgroup comparison , lafay et al . ( 1995 ) conclude that the paxillosida may not be monophyletic and that the paxillosid genus astropecten may be the sister group to the remaining asteroids , reminiscent of gale ' s phylogeny .", "wada et al . ( 1996 ) include more taxa for additional investigation of ordinal monophyly ( figure 9 ) . in multiple analyses of their molecular data set ( sequence data from 12s and 16s rdna ) , they find that paxillosids are paraphyletic with the paxillosid genus luidia as the basal asteroid taxon . in addition , the valvatida is not monophyletic and a forcipulatid clade falls within a group of valvatids , a velatid and spinulosids , a relationship in stark contrast to that proposed by blake ( 1987 ) . further , the spinulosida are never grouped with the velatida , which blake ( 1987 ) proposed as their sister group and which previously were considered a group within the spinulosida ( spencer and wright 1966 , mcknight 1975 , blake 1981a ) .", "knott and wray ( 2000 ) expand taxon sampling even more , but their molecular data set ( sequence data from mitochondrial trna and coi genes ) fails to resolve questions of asteroid phylogeny ( figure 10 ) . significantly , the paxillosida is not basal in their results ( although astropecten is not included ) . the results of different tree reconstruction methods are not in agreement , and basal groupings are only supported by bootstrapping in the neighbor - joining analysis . the proposed phylogeny is similar to blake ( 1987 ) in that two lineages ( one largely of forcipulatids and the other largely of valvatids ) are recovered , but valvatida and velatida are not monophyletic and some velatids plus the spinulosida fall in the forcipulatid clade .", "figure 8 . lafay et al .

cresteds seem to have a bit more \u201cpresence\u201d than some of their smaller relatives . because of their physical uniqueness \u2013 larger size , relatively heavy bodies , bills shaped more like the toucans than the aracaris , and of course their unique , curly -

billed mountain toucan . all were hand - raised and tame , but large toucan tame and aracari tame are two different things . the main differences as far as one considering taking a ramphastid on as a companion animal are two \u2013 logistical and cultural .", "one big aracari fan in particular is jeff hunter , who i was fortunate to meet through the yahoo toucan forum and has proceeded to make me fall in love with aracaris with each subsequent conversation we have . he always contributes really interesting information to the forum and has experience with several different species of toucan , both large and small . jeff\u2019s views on toucans as pets are in alignment with my own and i knew he would do a much better job than i to help weigh the differences between the large vs . small toucans as pets .", "i have tuki , a 4 year old curl from jerry jennings\u2019s farm . she is adorable . she sleeps in her own little cat bed that looks like the hollow of a tree every night . wants to taste all of our food . and cuddles with us in the evening before getting into her own bed . we love her to bits , and she greets us every time we come in the door . she has a different greeting for each one of us , and she recognizes each of our steps before we are in the house .", "i eventually had the opportunity to purchase an unrelated pair of hand - raised curl babies , oskar and shirley . i then transferred the wild pair to a friend\u2019s breeding facility where they would have more privacy . i put the new pair of babies in my aviary adjacent to my office . they remain tame after several years and i occasionally open the window and let them into the office to play with me or visitors . i\u2019m hoping that because they are used to people , they will feel more at ease breeding in an aviary in such close proximity to the house .", "probably the most challenging thing about owning an aracari is providing it with a suitable home and keeping that home ( and your home ) clean . a large cage is absolutely necessary , and plenty of time out of the cage is a requisite . you also need to devise a way to keep fruit splatter under control . i use flexible plastic sheeting that comes in rolls around three sides of the cage to keep our walls clean and a sheet of plexiglas sits on top of the cage . you still need to clean the walls and floors occasionally , as well as hose down the cage .", "jerry jennings , president / director of emerald forest bird gardens fallbrook , ca also imported this species in 2004 , and sold some curly - crested aracaris to the dallas world aquarium and the riverbanks zoo in columbia , south carolina . at this point in time , over 40 pairs are scattered around the united states that were sold by jerry jennings , who himself has 14 breeding pairs . at this point in time sufficient breeding pairs are set up in the united states for this species to be available to private aviculturists . adrienne reeves , who bought one of his curly -

storage disease ) . you must only feed low - iron softball pellets , and low iron fruits / veggies ( blueberries , melon , papaya , apple , pears , carrots , cherries , sweet potato , etc ) as well as no citrus .", "each day starts with chopping fruit \u2013 if you\u2019re not a morning person , don\u2019t get an aracari . i usually have the birds fed by about 8 : 30 am . i let rocky out in the morning while i\u2019m preparing food to cruise the living room and spend time with ken before he goes to work ( i work from home ) . when i go into my office , rocky joins me there , going in and out of his cage freely , landing on my head , playing in the bookshelves , and banging his toys around . if it\u2019s a sunny day , i give him a few hours in a ( metal ) sunning cage on our deck . while he\u2019s on the deck , i can let oskar and shirley inside .", "they also have a soft , whining sound that is used when being stroked or petted \u2013 i believe this is probably the sound that chicks make to solicit food . and finally , they have a loud , car - alarm call probably most owners will never hear . it\u2019s a high , descending whoop and i think it is used to call to flock members that are far out of sight . when i first put my wild breeding pair in the aviary , they did it for a few days in the morning . i think they were trying to see if any other curl - cresteds were in hearing range . occasionally , my tame pair will make this cry in the morning , just once or twice . even rocky may do it in the morning if i have overslept and am not down to greet him at the usual time .", "oh yes i have looked into the toucans quite a lot i know about their diets and what - not which can be costly but then again pets are costly . as for mild , mild is relative what i meant by that is the from what i have read and people on here have said toucans tend to be less emotional then macaws and the like , and quiet too , i dont mind the flying all around getting into trouble bit that is half the fun of a bird . i am just having trouble justifying to my self the absurdly high cost of toucans to myself without having had hands on time with one , tocans live 25 years or less and many cost as much as a macaw or twice as much . if i remember right the ivory billed is the smallest of the aracari just how large is he in regards to say a banana for scale", "tocos are unique among ramphastids in a number of ways . according to the literature , they are the only non - forest species , preferring generally open country dotted with trees . and , probably as part and parcel of that ( fewer trees = lower concentration of food per acre ) , they don\u2019t usually travel in the large , often mixed flocks that other toucans do . swainson\u2019s and keel - billeds , for example , will travel through the rainforest in very loose flocks of 5 to 7 or more individuals , often mixed with aracaris . so do the mountain toucans and the large uber - family that makes up the ramphastos vitellinis group ( 6 to 8 subspecies , depending on who\u2019s counting ) . tocos usually travel singly or , at most , in pairs . all the aracaris travel in large family and \u201ctribe\u201d groups ( related families ) , often mixing with other aracari species as well .", "i own an aracari ( same family as toucans ) and can say after doing my research not too long ago , that yes , the bigger rhamphastids are going to be pricey . because these birds aren ' t being bred or sold by many people , prices can fluctuate depending the seller and availability . for example , my ivory - billed was originally $ 1800 , already below the average price of $ 2000 asked by other reputable breeders . in the end i got him for $ 1200 \" on sale \" because he was the absolute last bird the breeder had from the last season . $ 5000 for a swainson ' s is not unusual at all , though you may find some around $ 3000 who are older , maybe not -

lost loved one ( like after not seeing you for 30 minutes ) .", "he likes to sit on the back of the couch behind your head and preen your hair or have you reach back and stroke him in that position , to which he responds with baby begging sounds . he also likes his beak stroked or rubbed gently .", "if i take a short afternoon break from work , rocky will join me on the couch , diving into a crack between me and the couch or me and the dog i\u2019m sitting next to to sleep and be pet .", "it has taken him two years to get used to our newer dog . at first , he was afraid and a little aggressive , but now he simply walk up to him and stares or gives him a tentative poke in the thigh . the dog just looks at him like , \u201cwhat , me , worry ? \u201d but we always supervise their interactions .", "rocky also enjoys being hand fed tidbits of food . we keep a small cup of his pellets in the living room to hand feed him from time to time . he demands whatever you\u2019re eating , so we usually cage him during our mealtimes \u2013 although he often manages to get a tiny piece of toast in the morning .", "unlike the larger toucans , in my experience , aracaris don\u2019t use passing of food back and forth to strengthen the pair bond . the males do , however , offer food to the female , but i have never seen a female reciprocate . once you give rocky a treat , he isn\u2019t going to give it back . what he does do is fly around the room , showing it off to everyone , \u201csee what i\u2019ve got ! you don\u2019t have this ! it\u2019s my special treat ! \u201d", "i haven\u2019t trained rocky to do anything . after the first year , he trained himself to poop on the two stands with trays that we have in our living area . he never poops on people or furniture . i haven\u2019t trained him to \u201cstep -

huge , multifaceted eyes enable it to detect prey up to 40 feet away . almost any flying insect is suitable prey . the dragonfly eats small insects even while it is flying but takes larger prey to a resting perch . the emperor dragonfly\u2019s larvae also hunt . they propel themselves through their underwater habitat by expelling water rapidly from their intestines . their extendable jaws , armed with deadly hooks , enable the larvae to catch and kill such food as water lice and nymphs . the shovel like jaw of the larva is used to capture a variety of freshwater animals . the legs form a basket in which insects are caught in flight and then transferred to the jaws to be eaten .", "mainly seen over ponds , canals or slow - flowing streams , this beautiful insect flies for long periods without resting , which makes it a difficult dragonfly to study .", "the male circumnavigates its territory and chases off any other dragonfly that comes near . each pair of wings moves in a different motion , giving the impression of a helicopter .", "11 ) dragonflies , which eat insects as adults , are a great control on the mosquito population . a single dragonfly can eat 30 to hundreds of mosquitoes per day .", "the eggs develop in about 3 weeks , depending upon the temperature of the water . the larva , or nymph , that hatches is wingless and lives in the water . it molts ( sheds its skin ) ten to fifteen times during the 2 years it takes to mature . almost all of its growth occurs in summer months . in the last stage of development the larva crawls out of the water and dries its skin in the sun . as the skin splits , the adult dragonfly emerges . once its soft wings have hardened , it can fly . the adult dragonfly lives for only a few brief weeks . the lifecycle of the emperor dragonfly guarantees that its larvae hatch at the same time , allowing a better chance for the adults to breed successfully .", "the australian emperor dragonfly spend most of the time flying , defending its territory and hunting for prey , seldom rest on a sunny day . in flight it appear yellowish . at the end of its abdomen there is the yellow spot as the ' tail light ' . the males aggressively defend large territories over the water . . its territory can be as large as 50 meters on a section of slow running water . if there is the intruder , it will always be driven away by a series of noisy air battles . the dragonfly usually has its patrol flight one meter about the water in quite a routine path within its territory .", "the emperor dragonfly has a broad global distribution ; it is found in europe from portugal to germany in the north , and extends eastwards to central asia ( 1 ) . it is also known from north africa and the middle east ( 2 ) . in britain , it is fairly widespread in southern england and south wales , but becomes quite scarce in the north midlands , although there are signs that the species is currently extending northwards ( 1 ) .", "special features of the emperor dragonfly : the larva has an extended jaw armed with hooks . it pushes them forward to catch and kill its prey . the male uses calipers at the tip of his abdomen to grip the female\u2019s thorax . the male transfers sperm from the tip of his abdomen to accessory sexual organs . the female then fertilizes the eggs . the copulation wheel : the female arches her body under the male to mate . they may fly in tandem while they are mating .", "unless there have been any recent publications , courtship in dragonfly species only seems to have been described for a few species of libellulid dragonfly ( chasers , skimmers , darters etc ) , and seems to be very brief , consisting of little more than a male approaching a female , indicating his desire to mate , and perhaps showing off potential ovipositing sites within his territory . the female then indicates receptiveness , or leaves !", "britain\u2019s largest , heaviest and most impressive dragonfly . an early summer species . the brightly coloured turquoise and apple green males coupled with their aggressive territorial behaviour make this one of most well known and easily recognisable dragonflies .", "visit any decent sized pond in early summer and you will probably encounter a male emperor patrolling it . they are very territorial and will chase other males and investigate other species . will fly away from water however to hunt . females are often visible laying eggs on floating vegetation and will do so alone .", "did you know : dragonflies always rest with their wings spread open . dragonflies and their larvae are a popular food in some asian countries . there are over 30 , 000 facets in a dragonfly\u2019s eye . very few birds can outfly and hunt down dragonflies . the fast flying , agile hobby is a match . the dragonfly\u2019s front and hind wings beat alternately , not together , as with most insects . this gives them better flight control .", "this common and familiar dragonfly in europe is nevertheless a comparatively recent colonist from africa , and still rapidly expanding its range northwards ( dijksta & lewington , 2006 ) . in the uk , it is absent from upland areas .", "3 ) there are more than 5 , 000 known species of dragonflies , all of which ( along with damselflies ) belong to the order odonata , which means \u201ctoothed one\u201d in greek and refers to the dragonfly\u2019s serrated teeth .", "most of the odonate behaviour that you will observe if you sit quietly by a pond or stream in summer is sexual in nature . most male dragonflies establish a territory \u2013 usually near a suitable site for the female to lay her eggs . the male defends the territory against other intruding males while waiting for a female to fly by . some species just perch and wait for this to happen ; others patrol the area for long periods . in hong kong , members of the aeshnidae family , such as the fiery emperor and the pale - spotted emperor , are particularly impressive as they patrol over ponds and streams , rarely coming down to rest .", "we watched a female emperor ovipositing in a small pond . her mate was patrolling above , and caught a small butterfly . still in flight , the wings dropped off , and he then found the female , who flew up and took the food from him . she landed on a weed in the water , and sat eating .", "the lesser emperor was first recorded in gloucestershire in 1996 and exuvia were found in cornwall in 1999 proving breeding had been successful ( cham et al . , 2014 ) . since the gloucestershire record this species had been recorded in worcestershire , cheshire and staffordshire and finally just last year in shropshire . definitely a rare migrant but always a possibility !", "12 ) hundreds of dragonflies of different species will gather in swarms , either for feeding or migration . little is known about this behavior , but the dragonfly swarm project is collecting reports on swarms to better understand the behavior . ( report a swarm here . )", "the profile of dragonflies has been raised in recent years , and many landowners build ponds in order to encourage them ( 4 ) . the british dragonfly society aims ' to promote and encourage the study and conservation of dragonflies and their natural habitats , especially in the united kingdom ' ( 6 ) .", "naturewatch : the emperor dragonfly is usually recognizable by its large size . the male has a deep blue abdomen , divided by a central back stripe . its head is green . at close range it can be identified by the distinctive rounded inside edges of the hind wings . the female is green and brown and is much less conspicuous than the male . during summer the adult male patrols its territory \u2013 weedy ponds and lakes . it usually flies 6 - 20 feet above the water . when it does rest , it perches briefly on the edge of a reed bed or in a tree . adults can be found near any stretch of unpolluted fresh water in their range . larvae emerge from the water as early as may .", "5 ) at the end of its larval stage , the dragonfly crawls out of the water , then its exoskeleton cracks open and releases the insect\u2019s abdomen , which had been packed in like a telescope . its four wings come out , and they dry and harden over the next several hours to days .", "dragonflies undergo a type of development known as incomplete metamorphosis in which the aquatic larvae ( sometime called nymphs ) undergo a series of moults ; the stages between moults are known as instars or ' stadia ' ( 4 ) . after hatching from eggs , the larvae develop quickly through the summer ; they enter their final instar during the autumn of the following year , and then enter ' diapause ' , a form of hibernation , before emerging as adults early the next summer ( 2 ) . in the first few instars , the larvae swim by undulating the body from side - to - side ; later on they develop a system of jet - propulsion which enables them to easily escape from predators such as water bugs , fish , other dragonfly larvae and beetles . the larvae of the emperor dragonfly are themselves voracious predators , armed with fearsome mouthparts known as a ' mask ' ; the mask is normally tucked under the head , but is rapidly extended in under 25 milliseconds ( 4 ) , piercing prey as large as small fish ( 2 ) .", "13 ) scientists have tracked migratory dragonflies by attaching tiny transmitters to wings with a combination of eyelash adhesive and superglue . they found that green darners from new jersey traveled only every third day and an average of 7 . 5 miles per day ( though one dragonfly traveled 100 miles in a single day ) .", "with just a handful of records prior to 1980 and similarly few in the succeeding decade , this is another species that can be considered a recent colonist to vc 55 . there has been a huge upsurge in records of this distinctive dragonfly since 1990 and it is now distributed widely through vc 55 in suitable habitat .", "britain ' s bulkiest dragonfly . its bright colours and active habit make it very obvious when hunting over medium to large water bodies . it rarely settles , even eating its prey in flight . both sexes have a bright , apple - green thorax and green or blue eyes . the costa is bright yellow . they often fly with the rear of the abdomen bent slightly downwards .", "while the adults are conspicuous , the larvae are little known to most of us . that is because they are aquatic creatures , living below the surface in freshwater streams and pools . they are generally dull , prehistoric - looking creatures \u2013 a far cry from the flaming adults . the following account focuses on the adults and attempts to briefly explain some of the dragonfly behaviour that an interested observer might be witness to in the summer months in hong kong .", "freshly emerged dragonflies are ghost - like . their wings are shiny , their bodies lacking in pigments . it can take up to two weeks for a dragonfly to reach sexual maturity , during which time there is a transition to adult coloration . subadult coloration can be different from that of the mature adult , and can lead to difficulties of identification . in general , adult males are easier to identify than females and subadults as many of them are distinctive .", "a large , robust , long - bodied dragonfly with a ' waisted ' appearance to the abdomen , which is longer than the hindwing . the eyes range from green to blue , with yellow to green undersides . animals have a plain green thorax and , in males , a light blue abdomen ( except for the first segment , which is usually green ) with a broad black dorsal stripe . the intensity of the blue colouration varies with weather conditions , becoming paler in cooler weather .", "this is the largest dragonfly found in the uk and indeed shropshire . apart from a green segment 1 , the abdomen is mostly bright blue with a distinctive broad black dorsal line running from segment 2 - 10 . the thorax is apple green and has no antehumeral stripes or any noticeable side stripes . just in front of the wings are 2 triangular blue spots . the wings are clear with a yellow costa and long narrow brown pterostigma . the eyes are blue green and the legs black apart from some reddish brown on the femur .", "the larvae of most species simply climb up the stems of emergent plants . some , however , crawl away from the water to find a suitable site to metamorphose into an adult \u2013 some even climb high into trees . once a site is found , the dragonfly slowly emerges , which can take 2 - 3 hours in dragonflies , an hour in damselflies . the shed larval skin ( known as an exuvia ) is left in place ; a good place to look for these exuviae is the water - lily pond at the outdoor study centre in tai po kau .", "lifecycle : most of the dragonfly\u2019s life is spent underwater as larva . it emerges as a winged adult for a few weeks a year to mate and lay eggs . usually mating takes place in the high branches of a tree along the pond\u2019s bank , but sometimes it will occur in the air . the male pursues the female until he is able to settle on her back . the mating procedure is known as the \u201ccopulation wheel . \u201d the female fertilizes the eggs , then uses her ovipostor ( a special egg laying organ ) to lay them . to protect her eggs from being eaten by fish , she places them into slits that she has cut into stems of pondweed .", "larva : a very large , elongate dragonfly larva , with a torpedo - like body and large , round eyes characterised by eye length much greater than width . the rear margin of the head is straight , and the head as a whole has a roughly circular appearance . the labium is three and a half to four times as long as wide . dorsal spines are present on the seventh and eighth abdominal segments , but there is no spine on the sixth segment . early - stage ( first year ) larvae are banded in black and white , colouration that is lost with age . this may be an adaptation that camouflages them against older larvae of the same species by imitating the effects of incident light near the water surface .", "hi all , we were out with our son , daughter in law , and 6 year old grandson today . our grandson loves catching insects , crickets , grasshoppers etc . after studying them in his proper trap , he releases them again . whilst out , we saw various butterflies , and a couple of dragonflies . now , to ask the question . have any of you observed this behaviour ? we watched a female emperor ovipositing in a small pond . her mate was patrolling above , and caught a small butterfly . still in flight , the wings dropped off , and he then found the female , who flew up and took the food from him . she landed on a weed in the water , and sat eating . this all took place over some 20 minutes or so , much to the delight of all watching , especially our grandson , who was the quietest i have known him to be for such a long time . no decent pics of this action , despite many attempts , sorry . pics below of some other sightings . hope you like them .", "after diapause , final instar larvae leave the water and crawl up vegetation . the adult emerges , leaving the discarded skin of the nymph attached to the plant ( 5 ) . the new adults undergo a period of feeding and maturation before starting to reproduce ( 4 ) . males set up territories , which they defend fiercely against other males ; they fly rapidly at two to six metres over the water , and very rarely come to a rest . during mating , males and females form a typical ' wheel ' mating posture , in which the male grabs the female behind her head using the claspers at the tip of his abdomen . after mating the female lays her eggs in floating vegetation , keeping low to avoid encounters with territorial males ( 2 ) .", "you can view distribution information for this species at the national biodiversity network atlas .", "there may be further information about this species available via the national biodiversity network atlas .", "this information is awaiting authentication by a species expert , and will be updated as soon as possible . if you are able to help please contact : arkive @ urltoken", "mcgeeny , a .

[ 102 ] ) .", "the pine marten is a medium - sized member of the mustelid family of carnivorous mammals , whose other members include the stoat , weasel and badger . it is about the size of a cat , with a body up to 53 cm . long and a bushy tail which can be 25 cm . in length . an individual will weigh between 1 . 3 and 1 . 7 kg . , with the female being slightly smaller than the male . in the wild , the pine marten can live up to 11 years , although the average lifespan is 3 - 4 years . in captivity ages up to 18 years have been recorded .", "fascinating facts the soles of their feet are covered in thick fur , which probably helps them to move across snow - covered ground . in the wild , the pine marten can live up to 11 years , although the average lifespan is 3 - 4 years . in captivity ages up to 18 years have been recorded .", "meanwhile , the game and wildlife conservation trust , which i see as a greenwashing agency for the shooting industry ( how many conservation groups do you know that teach children to use shot guns and run courses on snaring , lamping and trapping ? ) , is campaigning to reduce pine marten populations in scotland . yes , reduce .", "the finding brings to a climax the organised hunt for pine martens in wales which has been carried out in recent decades by the vincent wildlife trust .", "to obtain more pine marten bocavirus sequences , an additional \u223c42 , 000 trimmed reads obtained via next - generation sequencing with a 454 gs junior instrument ( roche ) were analyzed from sample vs4700002 , and a few bocavirus reads were identified . specific primers vs656 ( 5\u2032 - ttccaggaggatgtttcattgg - 3\u2032 ) and vs657 ( 5\u2032 - ttccaggaggatgtttcattgg - 3\u2032 ) designed on the obtained 454 sequencing reads were used to obtain a 1 , 048 - bp pcr amplicon of the genome region encoding vp2 , using amplitaq gold dna polymerase ( roche ) , according to the instructions of the manufacturer . the obtained pine marten bocavirus vp2 protein sequence was aligned to the corresponding vp2 protein sequences of other bocaviruses in genbank using clustal x2 (", "in summer , the diet is more varied , and includes bird eggs , honey , caterpillars and fruits such as blaeberries ( vaccinium myrtillus ) . in a good berry season , these latter can form 30 % of the marten ' s food and give a telltale blue colour to the animal ' s scat . some food is stored in the summer and autumn for retrieval in the winter . as a mainly nocturnal animal , the pine marten forages at night or dusk , and can roam more than 10 kilometres from its den in search of food .", "hunting area in winters is larger than 10km2 , so if pine marten has had bad luck in hunt it has to run even 30km to have something to eat , so carrion is very important . when tummy is full pine marten goes to its lair to sleep . lair usually is made under tree roots , tree stumps in hollows or squirrel nests . however , if the weather is nice enough it can sleep in bigger bird nests , but when it is very cold it make a nest under snow . if there are many pine martens in the same territory they go hunting each by itself . to stay out of any conflicts , they leave scent marks . to mark their territory martens leave faeces , urine , rub their anal sacs against branches , ground or snow . when little animal is eating it shouldn\u2019t lose alertness so time to time it stands up to look around .", "the pine marten is omnivorous . it favors animal food , relying on small mammals for most of the year . the diet composition and proportion often change according to season and local conditions . populations respond to the unpredictable cycles of rodents , such as voles , by drastically increasing their consumption of these prey items ( zalewski et al 1995 ) . the reproductive characteristics of", "two aspects of this story jump out at me . the first is the greys\u2019 astonishing speed of retreat . the numbers just don\u2019t add up : the martens simply couldn\u2019t eat that many squirrels . as the paper points out , \u201cit would be unlikely that a low - density pine marten population could impact a high - density grey squirrel population by direct predation alone . \u201d", "phylogenetic trees of the partial amino acid sequences of the vp2 protein of the pine marten bocavirus and other selected bocaviruses . phylograms were generated using mega4 , with the neighbor - joining method with p - distance and 1 , 000 bootstrap replicates . significant bootstrap values are shown . the viruses and genbank accession numbers shown in the phylogenetic tree follow : hbov1 , human bocavirus 1 ( ab480186 ) ; hbov2 , human bocavirus 2 ( fj973558 ) ; hbov3 , human bocavirus 3 ( gq867667 ) ; hbov4 , human bocavirus 4 ( nc _ 012729 ) ; gbov1 , gorilla bocavirus 1 ( nc _ 014358 ) ; porcine bocavirus ( hm053693 ) ; canine minute virus ( fj899734 ) ; bovine parvovirus ( nc _ 001540 ) , pine marten bocavirus ( jq085286 ) .", "in the uk , the pine marten is protected under the wildlife and countryside act of 1981 , and it cannot be trapped , disturbed or sold without a specific licence from the relevant government conservation agency - in scotland this is scottish natural heritage . however , despite this legal protection , martens are still killed inadvertently each year by traps or poisoned bait set out for crows or foxes .", "cushman sa , raphael mg , ruggiero lf , shirk as , wasserman tn , et al .

term population dynamics and community structure and can even cascade across trophic levels to mediate trophic interactions ( price et al . 1980 ; underwood and rausher 2000 ; harvey et al . 2003 ; dalin and bj\u00f6rkman 2003 ; kagata and ohgushi 2006 ; bukovinszky et al . 2008 ; carmona et al . 2011 ; volf et al . 2015 ) . the interactions between plant - feeding omnivores and their herbivore prey can be mediated by plant traits ( 1 ) via density effects and ( 2 ) by altering the omnivores\u2019 trophic status ( behavioral effects ) ( agrawal et al . 1999 ; eubanks and denno 1999 , 2000 ; eubanks 2005 ) .", "omnivory and trophic behavior is determined by evolutionary history , driven by resource abundance and quality to optimize nutritional needs ( agrawal et al . 1999 ; coll and guershon 2002 ; eubanks et al . 2003 ) . plant feeding allows for survival of small omnivore nymph stages and for persistence during periods of rapidly declining prey densities ( naranjo and gibson 1996 ; wheeler 2001 ; coll and guershon 2002 ; eubanks and styrsky 2005 ) . feeding on high - quality host plants can , thus , strengthen the buffering effect of this alternative resource , which should increase and stabilize omnivore population density and enhance the long - term predation pressure ( density effect ) . high plant quality can , however , also increase the omnivores\u2019 relative consumption of plant resources and reduce the average per capita predation rate ( behavioral effect ) ( eubanks and denno 2000 ; coll and guershon 2002 ) .", "nitrogen concentration is a characteristic of plant nutrient status with a potentially strong direct effect on omnivore performance in the absence of prey , which is also relevant for comparing the relative importance of resources at different trophic levels ( eubanks and denno 1999 , 2000 ; fagan et al . 2002 ; denno and fagan 2003 ; matsumura et al . 2004 ) . herbivore population density commonly increases on nitrogen enriched plants ( mattson 1980 ; awmack and leather 2002 ) and sap - feeding insects ( i . e . , many heteropteran omnivores ) may be especially responsive to enhanced plant nitrogen , since they feed selectively and often on tissue that does not contain nitrogen - based allelochemicals ( toxic secondary metabolites ) ( holopainen et al . 1992 ; wheeler 2001 ; huberty and denno 2004 ) . nitrogen concentration is substantially lower in plant than in herbivore biomass and the relative abundance of nitrogen in relation to growth conditions is , by orders of magnitude , more variable in plants than in herbivores ( mattson 1980 ; sterner and elser 2002 ; andersen et al . 2004 ) . the stoichiometric mismatch in nitrogen across trophic levels has also been critical for the evolution of omnivory in heteropteran insects ( eubanks et al . 2003 ) .", "the gray willow ( salix cinerea l . ) grows in wet moderately nutrient - rich soils and often forms dense stands along small streams , ditches and pastures and at forest edges ( jonsell 2000 ) . stands generally consist of individuals of the same clone and range from a few square meters to several hectares in size ( although small stands are more common ) .", "leaf nitrogen status in the field study and the greenhouse experiment was estimated using an optical chlorophyll meter ( model , spad - 502 , konica minolta sensing , japan ) . this is a non - destructive alternative to analytical methods that can be used to estimate leaf nitrogen content per unit area ; the method is commonly used in plant sciences and has been extensively evaluated for a number of hardwoods , including salix and populus species ( bonneville and fyles 2006 ; weih and r\u00f6nnberg - w\u00e4stjung 2007 ; bonosi et al . 2010 ) . spad values are , however , mainly useful for relative comparisons of nitrogen content in leaves , under similar environmental conditions ( chang and robison 2003 ) .", "one - year - old shoots were cut from 15 of the gray willow stands and used to create a leaf nitrogen gradient in the greenhouse , similar to the one recorded in the field . the shoots were stored at \u22125 \u00b0c for 3 months and then divided into 90 ( 6 \u00d7 15 ) cuttings ( length 20 cm , diameter 0 . 9\u20131 . 7 cm ) . the cuttings were placed in water in the greenhouse for 2 weeks to initiate root development , before being planted in pots with 2 dm 3 sand ( grain size 0 . 2\u20131 mm ) . the insides of the pots were lined with cloth , so that water and air ( but not the sand ) could pass through the holes in the base of the pots . the sand was saturated with water at all times . this ensured that water availability would not influence access to nitrogen and simulated the conditions gray willows experience in the field ( growing in wet soils or more or less directly in water ) .", "six cuttings from each of the 15 stands were randomly assigned to three different fertilization treatments in the greenhouse , corresponding to 1 . 4 , 8 . 4 or 15 . 4 mg n \u00d7 week \u22121 . these fertilization levels were used in a preceding pilot study and therefore known to create nitrogen levels similar to those observed in gray willow stands in the field . to fertilize the plants we used a complete nutrient solution , \u2018blomstra\u2019 ( wallco , sweden ) ( n : p : k 5 : 1 : 4 . 3 , ph 7 . 8 ) . the temperature in the greenhouse ranged from 18 to 24 \u00b0c . leaf nitrogen status of plants in the greenhouse was recorded 30 days after the first fertilizer application to ensure that the selected treatments resulted in leaf nitrogen concentrations similar to those observed in the field . spad values were recorded at five different positions between the mid - rib and the leaf margin , on three leaves from the mid part of each plant .", "the relationship between spad - 502 chlorophyll meter values and leaf nitrogen concentrations was determined using three leaf samples collected from each gray willow stand ( n = 51 ) in the field in june , 2011 , covering almost the full spectrum of values found in gray willow stands at that time of the year . in addition , three leaf samples were collected from clones of the same willows grown in the greenhouse ( n = 45 ) . the aim was to determine whether the relationship between spad values and nitrogen concentrations differed between greenhouse and field samples , for instance due to differences in light and hydrological conditions . mass - based leaf nitrogen concentrations of sampled leaves were determined by gas chromatography using a carlo erba na 1500 elemental analyzer ( carlo erba , milano , italy ) .", "the relationship between spad values and mass - based leaf nitrogen concentrations in leaves sampled in the field and in the greenhouse experiment was validated using a linear model . leaf origin was treated as a fixed effect in the model .", "the predicted difference in spad values between gray willow stands in the field study and nitrogen treatments in the greenhouse experiment was tested using two separate linear mixed models . potential correlation between data points due to repeated measures of spad values in the field was accounted for by incorporating a first - order autoregressive correlation structure for the time variable ( month ) . by treating stand as a random effect in the models , the intercept was allowed to vary among willow clones .", "two measures were used to estimate population variability : the coefficient of variation ( cv ) and the inter - quartile ratio ( iqr ) . cv was calculated for each stand by dividing the standard deviation of density by the mean density . cv thus provides a standardized measure of variability which allows for comparisons regardless of the mean . however , cv is sensitive to zero counts and low means ( heath 2006 ) . the iqr equals the inter - quartile range divided by the median and provides an alternative measure of variability that is independent of both observation extremes and the mean . we fitted two separate linear models with the response variable population variability expressed either as cv or iqr and leaf nitrogen status and willow stand area as fixed effects . cv and iqr were estimated using a subset of the population density data ( for 15 stands , 1999\u20132008 ) . the selection of data was intended to optimize the number of stands sampled over the same years and the longest continuous time period . the model was restricted to spad values in the range 30\u201336 because of the low number of observations below this range ( spad < 30 ) . including or excluding the two observations in this lower range in the model did not change the overall results .", "analyses were performed in r version 3 . 1 . 0 ( r development core team 2014 ) using the mass package glmmpql function for the poisson glmms ( venables and ripley 2002 ) and the nlme package lme function for the linear mixed model ( pinheiro et al . 2011 ) .", ") . the relationship was best described by the model spad = 0 . 41n", "spad -

term field studies and controlled greenhouse experiments to show that feeding on plant resources with a high nitrogen status increases and stabilizes omnivore population density , and enhances performance in the absence of prey . to our knowledge , this is the first empirical evidence under field conditions for this effect . moreover , we found that leaf nitrogen status can alter the omnivore\u2019s trophic behavior : individuals on plants with higher nitrogen status consume less prey . both results are consistent with accumulating ( but scattered ) evidence linking the distribution , dispersal , performance , oviposition preference and trophic behavior of omnivorous insects to intra - specific variation in plant quality ( agrawal et al . 1999 ; eubanks and denno 1999 , 2000 ; eubanks and styrsky 2005 ; groenteman et al . 2006 ; jim\u00e9nez et al . 2012 ) .", "the long - term population level effect and the behavioral effect ( plant vs . prey feeding ) of leaf nitrogen status differed with respect to the consequence for omnivore prey suppression and the outcome of the plant\u2013herbivore\u2013omnivore interaction . the different environmental conditions ( field vs . greenhouse ) and spatial and temporal scales make it impossible to integrate the effects entirely and to predict the net outcome of leaf nitrogen status on prey suppression . the density effect associated with increased plant nutrient status seems , however , as expected , to be stronger than the per capita changes in trophic behavior\u2014especially when longer time scales are considered ( eubanks and denno 2000 ) . consequently , we expect the long - term effect of high leaf nitrogen status ( population stability ) to outweigh the short - term behavioral effect on per capita predation rates\u2014resulting in a net increase in population predation rates with increasing leaf nitrogen status .", "supplementary material 3 ( csv 1 kb ) ( 1 . 6k , csv )", "supplementary material 4 ( csv 8 kb ) ( 8 . 9k , csv )", "supplementary material 5 ( csv 3 kb ) ( 3 . 1k , csv )", "we thank martin weih for advice on spad -

[ 12 ] is robust , and that gastropod colonists of the deep - sea benthos do indeed exhibit island - rule - like evolution .", "part a shows how different tests of the \u2018island rule\u2019 can give qualitatively different results . \u201cdeep - sea\u201d species were defined as those with a depth range midpoint > 200m , and all other species defined as \u201cshallow - water\u201d . the ordinary - least - squares regression ( dashed line ) differs significantly from the 1\u22361 line of the null ( dotted line ) , but the standardized - major - axis regression ( solid line ) shows no significant departure . part b shows a less ambiguous case : \u201cdeep - sea\u201d species are those never observed above 400m , and \u201cshallow - water\u201d species those never observed below 200m ; body sizes are within - genus means , taking equal numbers of deep - and shallow - water species in each genus .", "the body sizes of deep - sea gastropods are plotted against those of their shallow - water congeners . \u201cshallow - water\u201d species were never observed below 200m , and \u201cdeep - sea\u201d species never observed above depths of a : 200m , b : 400m and c : 600m . separate standardized - major - axis regression lines are shown for the neogastropoda ( black points ) and all other groups ( grey points ) . the dotted line is the 1\u22361 expected under the null . genera with fewer than two deep and two shallow species were excluded .", "similarly , predator release is a particularly plausible explanation of the vertebrate island rule [ 1 ] , [ 4 ] , [ 6 ] , [ 11 ] ; this is partly because it can naturally account for both dwarfism and gigantism ( by assuming that large and small body sizes evolve as alternative strategies for predator avoidance ) , and partly because predator release is so clearly implicated in other unusual characteristics of island endemics ( such as tameness ) [ 37 ] , [ 38 ] . but there is little evidence that reduced predation characterises the deep - sea [ 12 ] , [ 14 ] , and indeed there is direct evidence of substantial predation acting on deep - sea gastropods [ 12 ] , [ 39 ] \u2013 [ 41 ] . the gastropod results therefore argue against the predator release hypothesis as a general explanation of the island rule [ 12 ] .", "we are therefore still far from understanding the causes of the patterns observed \u2013 and particularly the roles of inter - and intra - specific competition [ 3 ] , [ 4 ] , [ 11 ] , [ 12 ] . a detailed clarification of where the pattern does and does not hold will be an important step toward achieving this goal [ 4 ] , [ 12 ] , [ 19 ] , [ 20 ] .", "many thanks are due to andrew rambaut for providing a script to mine the malacolog database . many thanks also to lucy weinert , nicolas bierne , gary rosenberg , shai meiri . simon joly and an anonymous reviewer , who all greatly improved the manuscript with their comments and advice .", "conceived and designed the experiments : jw . performed the experiments : jw . analyzed the data : jw . wrote the paper : jw .", "foster jb ( 1964 ) evolution of mammals on islands . nature 202 : 234\u2013235 .", "van valen l ( 1973 ) pattern and balance in nature . evolutionary theory 1 : 31\u201349 .", "lomolino mv ( 1985 ) body size of mammals on islands : the island rule re - examined . am nat 125 : 310\u2013316 .", "lomolino mv ( 2005 ) body size evolution in insular vertebrates : generality of the island rule . j biogeog 32 : 1683\u20131699 .", "macarthur rh , wilson eo ( 1963 ) an equilibrium theory of insular zoogeography . evolution 17 : 373\u2013387 .

give your new pets a week or two to adapt to their new surroundings before handling them . children should be supervised whenever handling green anoles , and anyone who handles them ( or any other reptiles ) should always wash their hands with antibacterial soap afterward .", "scale colors in green anoles vary . in most cases , these lizards range from shades of brown to green or gray . at times their coloring represents combinations of these colors . color variation results from layers of pigmented cells called chromatophores . three types of pigment cells are present : xanthophores , cyanophores , and melanophores , each responsible for different color variations . green anoles are capable of changing scale color in response to their external environment . many factors affect color change and variation ; most often it is dependent upon temperature and excitation , such as increased activity or competition . darker brown and black colors , produced by melanophores , typically signal cold or stressed conditions .", "to avoid predators , green anoles hide in trees , tall grasses , and other vegetation . they also have developed a structure similar to a patagium that enables them to glide down from tall trees . in addition , green anoles have the ability to walk vertically on surfaces such as trees , walls , and fences using adhesive pads on the bottom of their feet . these provide a means of escape that the majority of their predators do not have .", "green anoles have several methods of capturing prey . over 58 % of the prey is captured by perching and watching or anticipating prey until they are within striking distance . this is considered to be the most effective means of capturing prey . this behavior is predominant during breeding , to conserve energy for mating . another method of prey capture is used while the anole is protecting and patrolling their territory . in this case , they leap forward to ensure a capture , but use a slower motion . another common method of prey capture is the ambush , usually used in capturing larger prey items .", "is highly territorial , especially the males , they may prevent certain other species from entering their territory . this potentially prevents certain reproductive variation . a beneficial quality of green anoles is that they consume seeds and grains , potentially aiding in seed dispersal .", "green anoles feed on a broad range of prey items . they often will attempt to eat anything smaller than their own head . they are classified as insectivores , eating a wide variety of insects , including beetles and flies , as well as spiders , some arthropods . at times , they also will eat mollusks , grain , and seeds . the importance of a particular prey or food item largely reflects its availability . if an item is abundant within the territory , green anoles are likely to feed on it more frequently .", "is currently considered to be at lower risk or of least concern and is not vulnerable to any major threats at this time . some researchers believe that they may be at risk due to the significant numbers in the pet trade . however , in recent years , sales of green anoles have declined due to lesser demand . also , green anoles appear abundant in the portions of their range from which they are collected and many populations occur in protected areas , such as parks and natural areas , which helps to protect the population .", "green anoles are sun - worshipping baskers , and eight hours of full - spectrum uv lighting per day is recommended . ambient temperatures should range from the low - 80s fahrenheit during the day with nightly dips into the upper 60s to low 70s . basking hot spots should reach the mid 90s .", "the majority of green anoles are polygynous . especially in larger populations , they usually will mate only within their own territories . females are not characteristically known to search for different mates . in cases when a female mates with a different male , it is usually due to intrusion into her territory .", "two types of sexual selection occur during the mating season : intersexual and intrasexual selection . the larger a territory range a male has , the more females he is likely to mate with . a territory size usually relates to a male green anoles body size ;

[ 12 ] is robust , and that gastropod colonists of the deep - sea benthos do indeed exhibit island - rule - like evolution .", "part a shows how different tests of the \u2018island rule\u2019 can give qualitatively different results . \u201cdeep - sea\u201d species were defined as those with a depth range midpoint > 200m , and all other species defined as \u201cshallow - water\u201d . the ordinary - least - squares regression ( dashed line ) differs significantly from the 1\u22361 line of the null ( dotted line ) , but the standardized - major - axis regression ( solid line ) shows no significant departure . part b shows a less ambiguous case : \u201cdeep - sea\u201d species are those never observed above 400m , and \u201cshallow - water\u201d species those never observed below 200m ; body sizes are within - genus means , taking equal numbers of deep - and shallow - water species in each genus .", "averaging across species has untested statistical properties [ 30 ] , but it does have the advantage of reducing noise and the influence of anomalous data . for example , figure 1b plots results for balanced samples with \u201cdeep - sea\u201d defined as > 400m . these data are clearly noisy , and the slope is strongly influenced by a single outlier ( the largest value on both axes ) . this point represents the genus fasciolaria , which contains just a single deep - sea species , the recently discovered fasciolaria tephrina [ 32 ] . to restrict the influence of such isolated observations , mcclain et al . [ 12 ] excluded from their analyses all genera with fewer than two shallow and two deep species . despite reducing sample size by \u223c2 / 3 , this procedure strengthens the observed effect , with a highly significant departure from the null now apparent at the shallowest cutoff depth ( table 1 part b ; figure 2 ) .", "the body sizes of deep - sea gastropods are plotted against those of their shallow - water congeners . \u201cshallow - water\u201d species were never observed below 200m , and \u201cdeep - sea\u201d species never observed above depths of a : 200m , b : 400m and c : 600m . separate standardized - major - axis regression lines are shown for the neogastropoda ( black points ) and all other groups ( grey points ) . the dotted line is the 1\u22361 expected under the null . genera with fewer than two deep and two shallow species were excluded .", "similarly , predator release is a particularly plausible explanation of the vertebrate island rule [ 1 ] , [ 4 ] , [ 6 ] , [ 11 ] ; this is partly because it can naturally account for both dwarfism and gigantism ( by assuming that large and small body sizes evolve as alternative strategies for predator avoidance ) , and partly because predator release is so clearly implicated in other unusual characteristics of island endemics ( such as tameness ) [ 37 ] , [ 38 ] . but there is little evidence that reduced predation characterises the deep - sea [ 12 ] , [ 14 ] , and indeed there is direct evidence of substantial predation acting on deep - sea gastropods [ 12 ] , [ 39 ] \u2013 [ 41 ] . the gastropod results therefore argue against the predator release hypothesis as a general explanation of the island rule [ 12 ] .", "we are therefore still far from understanding the causes of the patterns observed \u2013 and particularly the roles of inter - and intra - specific competition [ 3 ] , [ 4 ] , [ 11 ] , [ 12 ] . a detailed clarification of where the pattern does and does not hold will be an important step toward achieving this goal [ 4 ] , [ 12 ] , [ 19 ] , [ 20 ] .", "many thanks are due to andrew rambaut for providing a script to mine the malacolog database . many thanks also to lucy weinert , nicolas bierne , gary rosenberg , shai meiri . simon joly and an anonymous reviewer , who all greatly improved the manuscript with their comments and advice .", "conceived and designed the experiments : jw . performed the experiments : jw . analyzed the data : jw . wrote the paper : jw .", "foster jb ( 1964 ) evolution of mammals on islands . nature 202 : 234\u2013235 .", "van valen l ( 1973 ) pattern and balance in nature . evolutionary theory 1 : 31\u201349 .", "lomolino mv ( 1985 ) body size of mammals on islands : the island rule re - examined . am nat 125 : 310\u2013316 .", "lomolino mv ( 2005 ) body size evolution in insular vertebrates : generality of the island rule . j biogeog 32 : 1683\u20131699 .", "macarthur rh , wilson eo ( 1963 ) an equilibrium theory of insular zoogeography . evolution 17 : 373\u2013387 .

sea benthos by marine gastropoda . in particular , a pioneering study showed that gastropods from the western atlantic showed the same graded trend from dwarfism to gigantism that is evident in island endemic mammals . however , subsequent to the publication of the gastropod study , the standard tests of the island rule have been shown to yield false positives at a very high rate , leaving the result open to doubt .", "the evolution of gastropod body size in the deep sea is reexamined . using an extended and updated data set , and improved statistical methods , it is shown that some results of the previous study may have been artifactual , but that its central conclusion is robust . it is further shown that the effect is not restricted to a single gastropod clade , that its strength increases markedly with depth , but that it applies even in the mesopelagic zone .", "the replication of the island rule in a distant taxonomic group and a partially analogous ecological situation could help to uncover the causes of the patterns observed\u2014which are currently much disputed . the gastropod pattern is evident at intermediate depths , and so cannot be attributed to the unique features of abyssal ecology .", "citation : welch jj ( 2010 ) the \u201cisland rule\u201d and deep -

breeding behaviours only when potential breeding partners are available . these competitive subordinate females decrease the reproductive success of the dominant females of their groups , and in some groups infanticide is observed . subordinate female reproductive competitors are also the target of increased aggression by dominant females during the fertile period . these conflicts over reproduction are generally expressed and resolved very early in the breeding cycle\u2014an aspect of reproductive competition in cooperative breeders that has often been overlooked . this early manifestation of competition highlights the importance of using behavioural observations , as well as genetic data , when investigating reproductive competition and success . using genetic data alone strongly underestimates the effects of female\u2013female reproductive competition in southern pied babblers because competition is so rarely successful . importantly , even in high - skew societies where dominants successfully monopolize reproduction , conflict between dominants and subordinates may impose costs on dominant reproductive success .", "in many cooperatively breeding societies , females compete strongly with one another for the scarce resources needed to breed ; although sexual selection has traditionally been perceived as having a greater effect on males , such selection may act equally strongly on females [ 60 , 61 ] . in southern pied babblers , subordinate females with potential breeding partners compete intensely with dominants for access to breeding opportunities . in addition , females ( but not males ) aggressively oust one another from breeding positions [ 16 ] and aggression in juvenile females ( but not males ) is an important factor in successful adult dispersal [ 62 ] . here , sexual selection for traits ( such as aggression ) that improve female competitive ability may play a role not only in dispersal and acquisition of breeding positions , but also in infanticide , suppression of potential reproductive competitors , and eviction of such competitors from the group . we suggest that the behaviour of southern pied babblers provides further evidence that intense competition among females may result in the evolution of sexually specific traits ( reviewed in [ 63 , 64 ] ) .", "july 2013 we have recently had a paper accepted into functional ecology . in this paper we look at the interspecific interaction between pied babblers and the solitarily foraging scimitarbill . we find that scimitarbills , who not have a reliable vigilance system of their own , regularly follow babbler groups and eavesdrop on the predator information that babbler sentinels provide . by so doing , scimitarbills gain significant benefits -

givers and offspring . these displays are interpreted as the phenotypic expression of the conflict of interests between parents and offspring over parental investment . offspring typically have siblings and thus do not exist in isolation . therefore , they may adjust their begging in response to their siblings ' begging , either competitively or cooperatively . alternatively , begging may be independent of the begging efforts of siblings . studies of avian begging have primarily focused on nestlings , where offspring are immobile and compete directly over the allocation of parental resources . we investigated the influence sibling begging had on individual fledgling begging in the cooperatively breeding pied babbler , turdoides bicolor . using experimental manipulations , we found that fledgling begging behaviour was negatively correlated with satiation and unrelated to the begging effort of siblings . pied babbler care - givers were able to target increased provisioning to individuals with artificially increased demand while maintaining provisioning rates to the rest of the brood . thus , fledglings were found to incur no provisioning costs or benefits from either increased or decreased begging by their siblings . we propose that the combination of targeted provisioning , flexible levels of provisioning and the dispersed nature of fledglings reduces the benefits of competitive or cooperative begging in this species .", "may 2018 we have a number of pied babbler papers coming out in 2018 , all of which we think present really important findings . for full details of authors and titles , please see the publications tab . first up is the paper by nelson -

flower et al in molecular ecology that looks at factors influencing reproductive skew , and finds different drivers of skew in males versus females . finally is the paper by wiley & ridley in ecology & evolution that looks at the pair bond as a predictor of reproductive success and group stability - a factor often overlooked in social species . all three of these papers used the long - term database to elucidate these behavioural trends - emphasising the value of long - term research !", "this website provides information on the research my colleagues and i are currently conducting on pied and arabian babblers ( as well as other species these two ' focus ' species interact with ) . in these pages you will find details about our research , our study species , and any research opportunities currently available .", ". . . pied babblers are a medium sized ( 75\u201395g ) passerine endemic to the kalahari , living in social groups of 2\u201315 individuals [ 31 ] . breeding within the social group is monopolised by a dominant pair [ 6 ] , and subordinate individuals will only achieve dominance within their natal territory if they can inherit vacant breeding positions without inbreeding [ 7 , 13 ] . prospecting in pied babblers is costly [ 22 ] , and long - term floating is rarely observed ( 80 . 0 % of prospectors return to their natal group within 30 days ; a . ridley , unpublished data ) . . . .", "babbler society is highly dynamic - within our population we have evidence of eviction , divorce , infanticide and kidnapping . our long - term research suggests that these dramatic events are related to the continual struggle between group members for dominance and access to breeding opportunities . these struggles can sometimes result in a dominance overthrow or successful cuckoldry , but these events are relatively rare .", "whilst others are foraging on the ground , often one babbler will take a higher position \u2013 up an acacia tree , say \u2013 and act as sentinel , watching for approaching for predators . while all is clear the watching babbler gives regular sentinel calls , which reassure the feeding birds that they can continue at ease , spreading out widely from each other without needing to look up as often to check for danger [ 3 ] . on sight of a predator , such as a mongoose or a pale chanting goshawk , the sentinel gives an alarm call that informs the rest of the group of the threat so that they can seek cover . the higher the predation risk in their environment , the more sentinel activity the babblers will undertake [ 4 ] .", ". . . in red - winged fairywrens malurus elegans , females that have inherited a territory are more likely to seek egp , or seek egp from further away than females that have dispersed before breeding ( brouwer et al . , 2011 ) . similarly , superb fairy - wren malurus cyaneus , and pied babbler tur - doides bicolor females disperse further from their natal groups than non - natal groups ( cockburn et al . , 2003 ; nelson - flower et al . , 2012 ) . other potential rules may include discriminating against particular age groups likely to contain relatives , or based on previous mating experience , for example to avoid daughters of females that males previously mated with ( archie et al . , 2007 ) . . . .", "in cooperatively breeding and other family living species , there are often more individuals of reproductive age than available breeding positions . asking how individuals attain reproductive status is therefore crucial if we are to understand the selection pressures that operate in these groups . here , we present data on routes to breeding in pied babblers turdoides bicolor , cooperatively . . .

calling behaviour is observed is when the caller is in search of a mating partner , however , the calls are multi - functional and can be given in a wide range of contexts [ 34 ] . it is possible that the calling patterns we have observed are serving another function for the caller . for instance if the calls function for territorial defence , they may still occur at a higher frequency on boundaries with unrelated neighbouring groups . reduced aggression and a greater tolerance to related neighbours has been observed in a range of taxa including fish [ 50 ] , birds [ 51 ] , and mammals [ 52 \u2013 55 ] . however , in the pied babbler territorial defence is usually undertaken as a group with all adult group members chorusing together [ 56 ] .", "we have a fully - funded phd position based at the percy fitzpatrick institute , university of cape town , available . the position will be supervised by me ( amanda ridley ) , claire spottiswoode and susie cunningham . it would involve working with the babblers several months per year at our field site in the remote southern kalahari , and looks at the effects of group size on thermal tolerance limits , working on the hypothesis that in large groups , where each individual has to do less work , individuals will be better able to tolerate high temperatures . this phd combine behavioural ecology and physiological research . for more details , see : urltoken", ") . to explore these relationships i conduct field experiments and observations on individual foraging success , foraging strategies and self versus social learning . together with this fieldwork i use the uniquely detailed 40 - year arabian babbler database to analyze long - term demographic effects . this database work involves finding what social or environmental factors promote group growth or extinction , and identifying critical group size effects in relation to eviction , dispersal and reproductive conflict behaviour .", "with the help of a new research grant , i am beginning research on understanding long - term population dynamics in cooperative species , including factors that promote the expansion or extinction of groups . i will be using the long - term datasets of arabian and pied babblers to determine the influence of climatic changes ( heatwaves and droughts ) on social dynamics at both the group and population level", "april 2012 unfortunately this year both our research populations have been hit by drought . in south africa the summer has now ended and after low rainfall over the rainy season pied babbler breeding success was very low . several of our groups failed to raise any young . our outstanding performers for the year were group xhosa , who bucked the trend and managed to raise five young to independence . in israel the breeding season is a few months in , and it is extremely dry ( oded reports only 7 mm of rain so far ) . many groups are still not breeding and it does not look like a promising breeding season . oded ( currently in - field ) brings happy news that one group currently has nestlings , and two groups have managed to fledge young - we ' ll cross our fingers that their fledglings manage to keep healthy .", "our findings indicate that subordinates are maximising the potential of their loud - calling behaviour by using information regarding the composition of neighbouring groups . this information is likely to be obtained through several mechanisms . firstly , information may be exchanged during inter - group interactions . baboons , papio cynocephalus , use inter - group encounters to assess the number of opposite sex individuals within neighbouring groups [ 57 ] . pied babblers frequently engage in ritualised inter - group interactions and have many opportunities for information exchange [ 56 ] . during inter - group interactions , pied babblers often utilise sex - specific loud - calling behaviour [ 34 ] , which may provide a mechanism for assessing the number of opposite - sex individuals in neighbouring groups . secondly , information regarding the composition of neighbouring groups may be obtained from prospecting bouts , with information - gathering considered one of the primary functions of prospecting behaviour [ 58 , 59 ] . or thirdly , information may be gained through eavesdropping on neighbours [ 60 ] . great tits , parus major , are able to assess the quality of neighbouring males by eavesdropping on their calling behaviour [ 61 ] . eavesdropping may similarly provide a way of obtaining information about the composition of neighbouring groups in pied babblers .", "here we have described how subordinate pied babblers , in addition to prospecting for breeding opportunities in the wider area [ 7 ] , also adopt a strategy of vocalising to neighbouring groups from within their natal territory . this strategy is maximised by using information regarding the composition of neighbouring groups to target an audience of potential breeding partners . importantly , subordinate loud - calling is not just given to any neighbouring group , nor focused towards the largest groups , but subordinate pied babblers are specifically targeting unrelated groups that contain a number of opposite sex individuals . our findings provide fresh insight into how subordinates within cooperatively breeding - societies , that are constrained in their opportunities to breed on the natal territory , appear to use information about the composition of neighbouring groups to inform the location of their vocal displays to target an audience of potential breeding partners .", "august 2012 unfortunately , despite our high hopes , the drought in the negev desert resulted in a very poor breeding season for the arabian babbler population . although oded recorded a surprising amount of breeding activity given the dry conditions , very few of these young survived long enough to recruit to the adult population . there are now only a handful of juveniles around from the season ' s breeding activity , who face the struggle of making it through a difficult winter with little food around .", "our findings that subordinate loud - calling behaviour is concentrated on the edges of territories , and specifically near to groups containing a number of unrelated , opposite sex individuals suggests that unsolicited loud - calling by subordinates functions for mate advertisement . importantly , it also suggests that pied babblers are capable of discriminating kinship and the number of potential mates within neighbouring groups , and can utilise this information to maximise the audience of their calling efforts .", "june 2012 on the back of a dry summer with limited insect emergence , has come a very cold winter in the kalahari . tom , a research collaborator currently onsite working on drongo - babbler interactions , has reported that the babblers are suffering badly from the harsh combination of cold weather and limited food . many are steadily losing weight , and at this rate we can expect that some of our juveniles will not make it through their first winter . fingers crossed the toll will not be too high .", "november 2012 finally some welcome rains have fallen at the arabian babbler study site ! after a very poor and very dry breeding season , flash floods have hit the arava . while these can be very dangerous in the short - term while they flow through the bone - dry river channels , they bring much needed water to a parched ecosystem , and are followed soon after by abundant germination . the picture to the right is a flash flood flowing along a wadi ( river channel ) that was previously completely dry .", "february 2013 another breeding season has ended , but the tragedy this season was that it never really started . it was a scorching summer in the kalahari , but sadly for the animals , the rains never came . day after day of searing heat , but no rain respite made it the worst ever breeding season for the pied babblers . with very little food around , most groups did not bother to make any breeding attempts after december ( which was when the rains should have arrived ) . currently , we have only eight fledglings in the entire population . more groups did fledge young , but these have since been predated . seven of our groups have gone extinct , and with a harsh winter coming up , we expect more extinctions before the next breeding season starts . while this is a very sad event for us all at babbler project , on the bright side it is very interesting demographically , which helps us with the aims of our recent successful research grant !", "one key focus of babbler research is their intelligent vocal capabilities . they communicate constantly using a diverse repertoire of sounds . whilst foraging for food , each individual gives low - pitch close calls , known as \u201cchucks\u201d to indicate its position to other group members . chuck calls function as a spacing regulator whilst foraging , so that individuals don\u2019t encroach on each others\u2019 feeding patches [ 1 ] . raising the pitch of the chuck a little tells the group that a large , shareable food source has been found [ 2 ] .", "february 2018 \u200bi am delighted to announce that our latest research , on the effect of sociality on the evolution of intelligence , has been published in nature ! this work is from our study population that is the ' sister ' population to pied babblers : western australian magpies in perth . well done to phd student ben ashton on a great achievement . here is a media link to our article , including a clip of our research on the evening primetime news , here \u200b", "phd submitted -

biased dispersal in pied babblers . females disperse slightly more often than males , but after accounting for the slight female - bias in the sex ratio , this higher rate is not signifi cant ( nelson - flower et al . 2012 ) . both males and females remain with their natal group as helpers for several years on average , and contribute to raising subsequent broods produced by the dominant pair . . . .", "relatedness of mated and unmated pairs of opposite -

vocally : in what is thought to be a display of blackmail , fledglings spend more time on the ground , where there is a higher risk of predation , than in the safety of trees when hungry . whilst on the ground , they are fed more by the foraging parents and helpers than when they are in the tree . thompson et al cite this as support for zahavi\u2019s idea , that the fledglings risk their own mortality in order to attain higher provisioning rates by the parents [ 9 ] [ 10 ] .", "we have recently had a manuscript accepted to global change biology . this manuscript , based on the msc fieldwork of kate du plessis , looks at the behavioural and body mass changes in pied babblers according to changes in temperature -

emptively , or as a reaction to previous infanticide , or functions as another type of signal [ 52 ] is not clear . second , dominants may tolerate competitive subordinates because an additional helper substantially increases productivity in small babbler groups , reducing the high costs of breeding as a pair [ 31 ] . immigrant ( and completely unrelated ) subordinate females are very rarely found in large babbler groups ( m . j . nelson - flower 2008 , unpublished data ) , suggesting that when groups become large , these subordinates are either evicted by dominants or repelled if they attempt to immigrate , or that groups only become large when the absence of a competitor does not place limits on reproductive success ."]} {"id": 2406, "summary": [{"text": "the pinhead pearlfish , carapus boraborensis , is a species of slender , ray-finned fish in the family carapidae found in the tropical indo-pacific ocean ; it normally lives inside the body cavity of a sea cucumber such as the pineapple sea cucumber ( thelenota ananas ) or the leopard sea cucumber ( bohadschia argus ) .

based analyses can help to understand contradictory responses to habitat fragmentation in the tropics .", ") . with ongoing deforestation and fragmentation and the resulting increase of edge conditions , aboveground nesting solitary bees could become more threatened in the future .", "the lower ice estimates at the inner trees in larger fragments could be the result of more available natural nesting cavities inside larger fragments with taller trees and a higher amount of dead trees . the availability of natural nesting sites is known to affect nesting frequency in trap nests ( viana et al .", "most study species preferred the forest center , but a few species preferred edge conditions , e . g . ,", ") . these two species seem to be better adapted to tolerate steeper temperature and humidity fluctuations and will probably profit from ongoing fragmentation and increased edge conditions . morato and campos (", ") also found that despite an overall preference for continuous forest and natural gaps , some species preferred disturbed habitats and deforested areas . with respect to the effects on pollination , we conclude that small forest fragments can help to sustain bee communities and to stabilize pollination services , which has been shown for stingless bees ( brosi et al .", ") . however , further fragmentation leading to an even greater increase in edge conditions will negatively affect trap - nesting bees .", "mortality rates tended to increase in larger fragments which is probably due to higher humidity that results in a higher fungal infestation rate of nests ( personal observation ) . however , larger fragments contain more tall trees ( didham and lawton", ") , so that larger fragments may be more suitable for some of the scarcer species . tree location did not affect mortality rates , because of the preferences of individual species . species probably prefer certain locations due to their advantage in survival , which is dependent on individual species traits ( nem\u00e9sio and silveira", "the most interesting pattern was the significantly lower mortality in the canopy . most studied bee species preferred the canopy ( morato", ") , probably because it provides better conditions for survival as shown in our data . it is possible that the drier sunnier conditions in the canopy help to reduce infestations by fungi . it is also probably easier for bees to find nectar and pollen resources in the canopy ( bawa"]} {"id": 2423, "summary": [{"text": "tritia reticulata , common name the \" netted dog whelk \" is a species of small european sea snail , a marine gastropod mollusc in the family nassariidae , the dog whelks or nassa mud snails .

[", "] ) . it occurs in aquatic or marshy habitats , including brackish water ( gruschwitz et al . [", "] ) occasionally even inhabiting cities such as rome and prague ( velensk\u00fd et al . [", ") lives in eurasian habitats , often inhabiting similar areas with the dice snake ( gasc et al . [", ") has sympatric populations in switzerland and italy with the dice snake ( metzger et al . [", "] ) . however , it is considered to be threatened in a number of western and central european states , with low genetic variation in some populations ( gautschi et al . [", "] ) . as such , conservation measures should still be undertaken for this species as habitat destruction , pollution , road traffic , collection and persecution are listed as possible threats .", "the dice snake has a large distribution and it occurs in different habitats , which would imply the species can adapt well to local conditions presumably by adopting a wide feeding spectrum . however , it is generally considered to be a diurnal piscivorous snake ( gasc et al . [", "] ) despite information that shows the species also eats non - fish prey items such as amphibians and reptiles ( see e . g . beshkov and dushkov [", "] ) . a number of publications contain information on the food of the dice snake , with several focusing on local areas ( e . g . luiselli et al . [", "] on central italy ) , but no global overview of the species ' dietary preferences has been published .", "the aim of this paper is to review the feeding spectrum of the dice snake over its global distribution by comparing the species ' prey items in different countries and offer reasons for potential differences in prey item preference based on geography and habitat conditions .", "information was gathered from literature sources and personal observations on the diet of the dice snake from its whole range , i . e . from switzerland in the west to pakistan and china in the east , and from germany in the north to iran in the south . information from papers only mentioning large , collective groups such as \u2018insects\u2019 , \u2018fish\u2019 or \u2018frogs\u2019 as food items without giving species ( or genus ) level information is discussed in the article ( e . g . brecko et al . [", "] ) but was not included in the database , even if their addition would have added new items to the list such as mice ( wang et al . [", "] ) . no time limit was applied ; reports available from the first half of the twentieth century were also used . besides published records and our observations , citizen science data were also collected by approaching internet databases for photographic evidence of dice snake predation on a given taxa ( e . g .", "] ) to elucidate geographical differences among 18 countries , where appropriate information could be collected . statistical analysis was made using syn - tax 2000 ( podani [", "contains the number of species from the different classes in different habitats and their frequency distribution . it shows that in marine habitats , only fish were predated ; in freshwater and terrestrial habitats , the most frequently eaten prey items were fishes and amphibians , respectively . the quantitative data shows that fish and amphibians overall were the most frequently eaten prey items , with invertebrates , reptiles and mammals eaten only rarely .", "detailed quantitative data on the diet of the dice snake were found in eight articles ( acipinar et al . [", "] ) including 2 , 375 prey items from the investigation of more than 2 , 730 snakes . the relative abundance of the different fauna groups at six european and two asian sites is summarised in figure", ", which shows a relatively uniform pattern , fishes comprised the highest abundance of prey items in seven out of the eight studies ( acipinar et al . [", "] ) . in four surveys ( austria , croatia , northern turkey , romania ) , they were the only food items described , while in italy , amphibians were also eaten in both cases . unlike these studies , fishes did not have an absolute dominance among the prey items in central turkey ( acipinar et al . [", "] ) and , to a moderate extent , reptiles ( bakiev et al . [", "species ( and , in some cases , genus ) level data on the feeding spectrum of the dice snake was collected from 18 countries . their similarity can be seen in figure", ") . in the middle east , the number of species eaten was relatively low ( under eight species in any country ) with only fish and amphibians eaten . the same taxa characterise countries in the ponto - caspian group but different species are fed on and the number of species was also higher . the remaining two groups ( central and eastern european , mediterranean ) are characterised by a wide feeding spectrum , characteristic differences among the countries and further division in the central and eastern european group e . g . according to altitude .", "data from 18 countries proved that the dice snake feeds on at least 113 prey taxa from six classes . fish were the most important prey items ; the importance of non - fish species in the diet was pronounced in deserts , high mountains and in dry mediterranean areas . in spite of the wide feeding spectrum , only fish and amphibians were found to be predominant food items over the whole species ' range .", "due to its excellent swimming and diving abilities and fidelity to freshwater habitats , the dice snake is generally considered to be a piscivorous fish species ( gasc et al . [", ") , both fast - and slow - moving animals . for example , reptiles , especially lizards , have been found in the diet of the dice snake for more than 60 years ( g\u00f6\u00e7men et al . [", "] ) . a key factor determining the actual species composition is that according to current understanding of the species ' habitat requirements over much of its range , the dice snake remains in the immediate vicinity of surface waters at a distance of less than 20 metres to the water edge during the active season ( conelli et al . [", "sp . , ) fish species as it has been observed in the caspian sea ( tuniyev et al . [", "] ) , lake balaton ( own unpublished data ) , lake prespa ( sterijovski et al . [", "] ) . in fishponds , the main prey species of the dice snake were juvenile fish from aquaculture and allochthonous fish species ( acipinar et al . [", ") . populations in high mountains ( over 1 , 000 m a . s . l . ) may specialise on eating larval and adult amphibians ( cafuta and krofel 2007 ; frotzler et al . [", "] ) as predominant food . it can also be considerable in arid regions , where the dice snake often lives along temporary water bodies or fish ponds , where only a limited number of fish species are present ( amr and disi [", "] ) . as young fish produced in fish farms can become an important element in the diet of the dice snake besides natural conditions , human activity may also influence the spread and survival of this snake ( acipinar et al . [", "several publications include estimates on the frequency of different prey organisms of the dice snake , including estimates for various habitats . wang et al . ( [", "] ) , for example , investigated 200 individuals and listed fish as the main food item in large , reed covered water bodies , insects , tadpoles and adult amphibians in temporarily water - covered rice paddies and connecting canals among them , and fish , tadpoles , insects and rodents ( primarily mice ) along streams in other agricultural areas in north - eastern china .", ") ; this result is characteristic for the species inhabiting permanent streams and large water bodies or rivers in austria , croatia , romania and northern turkey ( acipinar et al . [", "] ) . contradictory results were found on prey selection . for example , in styrean waters , there was no complete overlap between the abundance of the different species in fish communities and in the diet of the dice snake ( zimmerman and fachbach [", "] ) , while in the danube delta , the number of snake - caught gobiid species was reflective of the abundance of the respective species in bottom habitats ( sloboda et al . [", "] ) . though the feeding spectrum of the studies was wide , fish were also the most abundant prey species at the other sites including the mediterranean ( bakiev et al . [", "] ) . in one case , however , other food items ( insects , amphibians , reptiles and mammals ) in total were more numerous than fish ( g\u00f6\u00e7men et al . [", "] ) . though the number of these studies is limited , they support the general conclusion that over much of its range , the dice snake primarily feeds on fish , while in arid areas ( see also frotzler et al . [", "] ) and , according to cafuta and krofel ( 2007 ) , also in high mountains , its diet may shift towards amphibians and other prey items .", ") . the group separated most from other branches includes asian countries with dice snake populations in highly arid regions ( iran , syria , jordan ) . the list of prey species in these countries is short , with snakes predominantly feeding on fish and amphibians from permanent rivers and alien fish species kept in fish farms ( amr and disi [", "the second group in the cluster includes countries with the highest number of ponto - caspian gobiid species ( e . g .", "central and eastern european countries formed a common group with russia . there are several fish with very large distribution areas among the prey species there such as", "] ) , while high mountain populations ( austria , switzerland , slovenia ) feeding on locally characteristic fish species and also on amphibians are on another sub - branch .", "countries with mediterranean climate ( croatia , italy , turkey ) form the final group with freshwater tolerating marine fish species and cosmopolitan fish species in the diet of the dice snake . this area is characterised with the most diverse feeding spectrum including snails , insects , reptiles and mammals ( additional file", ") related to the drying out of many water bodies during summer . during extremely hot summers , the dice snake was also observed to hunt at night , also far away from surface waters , which furthers the potential feeding spectrum of this snake ( see e . g . moller [", "] , who observed over a period of several weeks a large dice snake which \u2018unusually\u2019 hunted geckos at night ) .", "snakes have strikingly different feeding spectra ranging from strictly egg - eating species with limited distribution ( see e . g . dandge [", "] ) . the dice snake is present in over 20 countries on three continents , which is , unlike what has been suggested earlier on the basis of observations from the western - central part of its distribution area , partly the result of its generalist feeding strategy leading to a good adaptive ability if the potential prey spectrum changes ( acipinar et al . [", "] ) . it is also supported by its anatomy enabling this snake to hunt effectively in both aquatic and terrestrial environments ( bilcke et al . [", "species inhabiting the palearctic . in a comparative study with the closely related grass snake (", "] ) found the dice snake to have a narrower feeding spectrum than the grass snake , which also has a broader distribution ( gasc et al . [", "] ) . the latter species more plastically changing its diet and populations near to each other within relatively short distances may specialise on different food ( luiselli et al .
