The critically endangered Chinese pangolin (<em>Manis pentadactyla</em>) faces significant threats, including habitat loss and injuries caused by dogs, but the specific impacts of dogs on their distribution and behavior remain poorly understood. Our study explored the spatial and temporal interactions between dogs and the Chinese pangolins in Yangmingshan National Park, situated within the Taipei-Keelung metropolis in northern Taiwan. From June 2018 to November 2019, we detected dogs at 50 camera sites whereas pangolins at 43 sites, and recorded 465 burrows. The habitat uses of dogs and pangolins showed partial overlap, with dogs present in more than one third of the areas where pangolins occurred. Presence of dogs declined with increasing distance from hot springs, areas tied to human activities and food subsidies, while pangolin site use was negatively linked to elevation and positively associated with distance from hot springs. The co-occurrence estimate between dogs and pangolins was −0.51, indicating a reduced likelihood of pangolin site use in areas with dogs. Low diel activity overlap (0.20) indicated limited temporal interaction. This study sheds light on the interactions between free-roaming dogs and the Chinese pangolins, illustrating how human-associated factors and invasive species affect wildlife in protected areas.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":55375,"journal":{"name":"Biological Conservation","volume":"306 ","pages":"Article 111160"},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2025-04-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143827752","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Genetic interventions like assisted gene flow may speed up adaptation in reefs with less heat-tolerant corals by increasing the frequency of heat tolerance-associated genetic variants, but the effectiveness of the intervention across species and life stages remains uncertain. To investigate, we generated reproductive crosses of corals from reefs along a thermal gradient on the Great Barrier Reef, comparing fitness traits in intra-region (same region) and inter-region (different region) offspring from three species (Acropora kenti, <em>A. hyacinthus</em>, and <em>Goniastrea retiformis</em>). Juveniles were inoculated with three heat-tolerant symbionts: Durusdinium trenchii, a heat-evolved Cladocopium goreaui strain, and “wild” symbionts from northern reef sediments, to assess symbiosis impacts on heat tolerance. Survival, growth, colour change (proxy for bleaching), and effective quantum yield of photosystem II (YII) were measured across larvae, juveniles, and adults at elevated (32 °C, 35.5 °C) and ambient (27.5 °C) temperatures. Results showed higher survival in some inter-region crosses compared to intra-region crosses from central reefs in larvae and juvenile corals, though enhancement varied by species. Furthermore, heat-tolerant parents did not always produce heat-tolerant offspring, and larval heat tolerance did not always persist to the juvenile stage. Parent genetic background influenced survival more than symbiont treatment. These findings underscore the complexity of heat tolerance acquisition in early coral life stages.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":55375,"journal":{"name":"Biological Conservation","volume":"306 ","pages":"Article 111155"},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2025-04-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143824122","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Marsh frogs have been introduced into many European countries, where they pose threats to biodiversity, yet an integrative understanding of their invasion is lacking. Therefore, we combined diverse bibliographic sources with recent DNA barcoding to determine the extent and diversity of invasions in Europe and substantiate the causes and pathways of introductions. We document alien frog populations across 167 sub-regional administrative areas in 19 European countries, corresponding to nine phylogeographic lineages originating from three continents. Introduction pathways from the Balkans and the Pannonian Plain, Anatolia and the Levant coincide with the history of live frog imports into Europe, which involved the trade of hundreds of millions of individuals. Introductions were mainly associated with the consumption of frogs' legs, but also with ornamental, educational and research purposes. While some introductions date to the 18th century, most took place in the second half of the 20th century and new cases continue to emerge. Altogether these results show that the marsh frog is a widespread and complex invasive amphibian species in Europe, and ranks among the most worrying amphibian invaders in the world.

We analyzed bird communities' thermal and habitat niche compositions during breeding and overwintering seasons, influenced by climate and habitat variations. The results indicated that ecological source areas provided significant microclimatic buffering, attracting more cold-dwelling species during the breeding season, while warm-dwelling species dominated the overwintering season (<em>p</em> < 0.0001). Furthermore, the range of habitat niches remained consistently broad throughout all seasons (<em>p</em> < 0.0001).

At a landscape scale, the number of patches influenced thermal niche metrics and significantly affected community niche breadth across several scales. Increased wetland area and the number of patches extended a variety of ecological niche types at almost any scale and season, while increased forest area and aggregation benefited certain species with specialized needs. These results indicated the importance of high-quality blue-green infrastructure management and planning to effectively support diverse conservation strategies.

However, overexploitation of abalone, conch, topshell, and limpets has resulted in population declines globally, with numerous species on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. Various efforts to supplement existing populations by either translocating wild or releasing hatchery-produced stock have suffered from low survival. To understand predictors influencing post-release survival, we conducted a systematic review and quantitative synthesis of literature on marine gastropod releases. Our global review identified 88 studies (575 unique release events) across 18 species. A similar number of releases were conducted in tropical (52 %) and temperate (48 %) regions, although most release events involved either Haliotidae (57 %) or Strombidae (26 %). Most releases used hatchery-produced stock (77 %), highlighting the prominent role of aquaculture. For seven species with sufficient data, we tested the effect of time since release, stock origin (hatchery, translocated), size at release, and density on post-release apparent survival (referred to as ‘survival’ hereafter), where applicable. Survival declined through time regardless of species. Hatchery-produced and translocated <em>Haliotis fulgens</em> had similar survival post-release, but hatchery-produced <em>Aliger gigas</em> had lower survival probability than translocated stock. Size at release increased survival probability for only two (<em>Haliotis discus</em> and <em>A. gigas)</em> of the seven species. Similarly, density had no effect on the post-release survival of <em>Haliotis rubra, Haliotis rufescens</em>, and <em>A. gigas</em>.

The results of this Q study with farmers in Brandenburg, Germany, reveal three distinct perspectives on the use of digital applications which could facilitate (collective) AECM: one focusing on the associated benefits, one questioning the meaningfulness of such approaches and one strongly valuing personal exchanges. While all viewpoints are open to the use of digital applications if they provide clear added value, farmers doubt the reliability of more advanced technologies. The different viewpoints highlight the importance of attitudes and subjective perceptions, which vary regardless of farm and farmer characteristics. For the successful development and diffusion of digital innovations and to steer the transition towards a digitally supported implementation of collective AECM, it is crucial to build institutional trust by providing planning security and ensuring the usefulness and viability of new approaches. In general, digital technologies may support the implementation of collective AECM directly through tailored applications or indirectly by increasing farmers' capacity to adapt to changes.
