Snakes’ tape of life Nat. Ecol. Evol. (IF 16.8) Pub Date : 2024-03-08 Vera Domingues
Snakes and lizards (Squamata) are a diverse group, and represent one third of terrestrial vertebrates. Although both have tremendous morphological variation associated with feeding and locomotion, snakes show unique ecomorphological diversity and specialization. Writing in Science, Title et al. constructed a time-calibrated genomic phylogeny for 6,886 species of squamates that they use — together with

Fungi on film Nat. Ecol. Evol. (IF 16.8) Pub Date : 2024-03-07 Simon Harold
The film begins in Kew Gardens, UK, with Sheldrake rummaging among the shelves of the fungarium, where — with the help of Kew’s collection team — he uncovers treasures such as specimens collected by Darwin from Tierra del Fuego. From here, we are transported down the lens of a microscope into the tangled world of hyphae and mycelia, whose growth is shown in glorious high-resolution time lapse and envelopes

Prioritizing biodiversity in extreme events Nat. Ecol. Evol. (IF 16.8) Pub Date : 2024-02-28 Marian Turner
Emergency situations often entail agonizing choices over what to save when time and resources are limited. Writing in Conservation Biology, Woinarski et al. suggest that some assumptions about societal priorities during responses to natural disasters may need revisiting. The authors surveyed 2,139 adult Australians who were randomly selected to reflect the country’s population. Respondents were asked

Eve of extinction Nat. Ecol. Evol. (IF 16.8) Pub Date : 2024-02-26 Catherine Hobaiter, Nathaniel J. Dominy
It is clear from the outset that Out of Darkness is no ordinary survivalist thriller. It transcends the genre, leaning heavily on Platonic philosophy while criticizing self-serving narratives of settler colonialism and organized religion (at times more subtly than others — two of the leads are Adem and Eva, with Adem declaring early on that “I am the light”). The filmmakers also collaborated closely

Invasive ants stir up lion predation Nat. Ecol. Evol. (IF 16.8) Pub Date : 2024-02-08 Simon Harold
In East African savannahs, whistling-thorn trees form a mutualism with acacia ants that live within their swollen thorns: the ants protect the trees from browsing herbivores, and receive shelter and nectar in exchange. However, invasive big-headed ants disrupt this mutualism by eradicating acacia ants and not providing any protection from herbivory by elephants. Writing in Science, Kamaru et al. show
