Same data, different analysts: variation in effect sizes due to analytical decisions in ecology and evolutionary biology

Elliot Gould, Hannah Fraser, Timothy Parker, Shinichi Nakagawa et autres

Although variation in effect sizes and predicted values among studies of similar phenomena is inevitable, such variation far exceeds what might be produced by sampling error alone. One possible explanation for variation among results is differences among researchers in the decisions they …

Preference for Artificial Refugia over Natural Refugia in an Endangered Fish

Kit Magellan, Olaf L. F. Weyl, Anthony J. Booth

The availability of appropriate refugia may ameliorate some impacts of habitat degradation and can aid in the conservation of target species. In addition to natural refugia, the provision of artificial refugia may be viable, particularly in degraded habitats. We examined the conservation …

A global-scale screening of non-native aquatic organisms to identify potentially invasive species under current and future climate conditions

Lorenzo Vilizzi, Gordon H. Copp, Jeffrey E. Hill, Б. В. Адамович et autres

The threat posed by invasive non-native species worldwide requires a global approach to identify which introduced species are likely to pose an elevated risk of impact to native species and ecosystems. To inform policy, stakeholders and management decisions on global threats to …

Prioritizing Sex Recognition Over Learned Species Recognition: Hierarchical Mate Recognition in an Invasive Fish

Kit Magellan, Emili García‐Berthou

Mate recognition is the process of identifying and assessing the appropriate species, sex or population of another individual for their suitability as a potential mate. Recognition may be innate or learned. Learning, the acquisition of knowledge or skills through experience, involves a …

Innate responses to conspecific and heterospecific alarm cues in the endangered eastern cape redfin Pseudobarbus afer

Kit Magellan, Anthony J. Booth, Olaf L. F. Weyl

We examined innate responses to conspecific and heterospecific alarm cues in a small cyprinid minnow, the Eastern Cape redfin Pseudobarbus afer. We found that redfins respond to conspecific skin extract, which contains alarm chemicals, and showed that their preferred response is to …

Prayer animal release: An understudied pathway for introduction of invasive aquatic species

Kit Magellan

It is more cost effective to prevent invasions than to eradicate or control invasive species once they are established. We therefore need a thorough knowledge of the pathways by which invasive species are introduced. Prayer animal release is the mainly Buddhist and …

Behavioural crypsis in a South African galaxiid fish induced by predatory and non‐predatory heterospecifics

Kit Magellan

This study investigated recognition of, and behavioural responses to, predatory and non-predatory heterospecifics by a small cryptically coloured fish species, Galaxias 'nebula'. Nebula recognised and differentiated between predatory and non-predatory heterospecifics and altered its behaviour facultatively. With both predatory and non-predatory fishes, …
