However, the cascading effects of burrow resources on sympatric animal community assemblages and interspecific interactions are largely unknown. During 2020-2023, we monitored 184 Chinese pangolin (Manis pentadactyla) burrows using camera traps to reveal the burrow utilization patterns of commensal species. We totally recorded up to 57 species, with 19 mammal species, 32 bird species, and 1 reptile species recorded in the burrows revisited by Chinese pangolin, with 19 mammal species and 25 bird species in the non-revisited burrows. Among them, most bird species as peripheral species primarily utilize soil mounds while most mammal species as burrow-used species utilize burrow tunnels. The structure of animal communities in the burrows revisited by Chinese pangolins is more complex than that in the burrows not revisited. Furthermore, the positive correlation between community species in pangolin-revisited burrows is also stronger. Our results demonstrate that the presence and repeated visitation by Chinese pangolins could enhance positive interactions (i.e., the emergence of one species promotes the emergence of another) among species that utilize the burrow resources (particularly, burrow-used species). Our study provides the first evidence that the ecological role of the Chinese pangolin and its associated burrow microhabitats in promoting the coexistence of burrowing commensals and the restoration of Chinese pangolin populations may potentially contribute to the restoration of local biodiversity and ecological processes.","PeriodicalId":13654,"journal":{"name":"Integrative zoology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-01-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142970096","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Analyses of intestinal microbiota, dietary composition, and metabolism of invasive species can enhance our understanding of their feeding strategies and physiological adaptation strategies to the environment. Intestinal content samples were collected from P. canaliculata inhabiting three distinct environments including a pond, a river, and a ditch. These samples were subjected to 16S rRNA gene sequencing analysis and multiple metabarcoding analyses, including eukaryotic 18S rRNA, mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase I (COI), and chloroplast rbcL genes. In addition, metabolomics analysis was conducted on the intestinal content samples to investigate metabolic change. The highest dietary diversity in P. canaliculata was observed in the ditch, and females exhibited a higher dietary diversity than males in the pond. The 18S rRNA gene has a high potential for identifying the dietary components of omnivorous species. The intestinal microbiota of P. canaliculata from different habitats displayed significant variations, attributed to differences in food resources and other environmental factors. Bacteria in the aquatic environment had minimal impact on the intestinal microbiota of P. canaliculata. Overall, P. canaliculata exhibited adaptive changes in physiological characteristics across different habitats, including alterations in diet, which, in turn, influence microbiota and metabolic pathways such as amino acid biosynthesis in the intestine. The present study investigated the physiological mechanisms that enable P. canaliculata to adapt to diverse habitats, considering various factors including diet, which is important for comprehending its invasive potential and the subsequent threats it poses to aquatic ecosystems.","PeriodicalId":13654,"journal":{"name":"Integrative zoology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-01-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142964384","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we investigated the ultrasonic vocalizations of the remaining and recently recognized species, T. fengjiensis, and compared its ultrasonic and morphological traits with its sibling species T. daloushanensis. Both species produced frequency-modulated (FM) ultrasonic calls that lacked harmonic structure, consistent with echolocating calls established for other members of this genus Typhlomys. This FM echolocation call structure is well-adapted to navigating along branches in dense foliage conditions in the forest understory. Importantly, however, the specific call structures of T. fengjiensis and T. daloushanensis exhibited significantly different ultrasonic characteristics, with different numbers of pulse groups, in support of phonic speciation. T. fengjiensis was on average larger than T. daloushanensis and vocalized at a lower frequency and for a longer duration, in support of the signal-size allometry hypothesis. Furthermore, T. fengjiensis has the lowest ultrasonic call frequency among Typhlomys spp., corresponding with it being the largest member of this genus. Bergmann's law does not provide a compelling explanation of the body mass differences between T. fengjiensis and T. daloushanensis, due to the likely overlap in their elevational distribution. Further research is needed to establish if differences in habitat selection and diet, or differences in social and reproductive behavior, might best explain this local species divergence based on phonic traits.","PeriodicalId":13654,"journal":{"name":"Integrative zoology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2024-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142864319","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we examined the gut mycobiota of three snub-nosed monkeys: Rhinopithecus roxellana, R. bieti, and R. strykeri using next-generation amplicon sequencing targeting the fungal internal transcribed spacer. The alpha diversity indexes of gut mycobiota in R. bieti were significantly higher than R. roxellana and R. strykeri, the beta diversity indicated that R. roxellana and R. bieti had more similar feeding habits. Core mycobiota demonstrated commonalities among the three species and potentially associated with feeding habits. Mycobiota displaying significant differences exhibited the respective characteristics of the host, likely associated with the hosts' living environment. Among them, animal and plant pathogenic fungi and lichen parasites are potential threats to the survival of snub-nosed monkeys for their pathogenicity to both monkeys and their food plants. Functionally, fungal trophic modes and functional guilds revealed a strong association between gut mycobiota and host diet. We found a higher abundance and more significant correlations with lichen parasitic fungi in R. strykeri than the other two species, indicating potential threats to their foods. Accordingly, this study revealed the basic structures of gut mycobiota of three wild Rhinopithecus species and highlighted the associations between gut mycobiota and their feeding habits and living environments. Furthermore, due to the close connection between fungi and the environment, animals could ingest fungi from their diet; thus, we speculate that gut mycobiota may serve a role in environmental monitoring for wildlife.","PeriodicalId":13654,"journal":{"name":"Integrative zoology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2024-12-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142846298","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
