Two hundred years of zooplankton vertical migration research
Vertical migration is a geographically and taxonomically widespread behaviour among
zooplankton that spans across diel and seasonal timescales. The shorter‐term diel vertical …

Comparing species interaction networks along environmental gradients
Knowledge of species composition and their interactions, in the form of interaction networks,
is required to understand processes sha** their distribution over time and space. As such …

What you need is what you eat? Prey selection by the bat Myotis daubentonii
Optimal foraging theory predicts that predators are selective when faced with abundant prey,
but become less picky when prey gets sparse. Insectivorous bats in temperate regions are …

DNA metabarcoding quantifies the relative biomass of arthropod taxa in songbird diets: Validation with camera‐recorded diets
Ecological research is often hampered by the inability to quantify animal diets. Diet
composition can be tracked through DNA metabarcoding of fecal samples, but whether …

A molecular‐based identification resource for the arthropods of Finland
To associate specimens identified by molecular characters to other biological knowledge,
we need reference sequences annotated by Linnaean taxonomy. In this study, we (1) report …

From feces to data: A metabarcoding method for analyzing consumed and available prey in a bird‐insect food web
Diets play a key role in understanding trophic interactions. Knowing the actual structure of
food webs contributes greatly to our understanding of biodiversity and ecosystem …

Table for five, please: Dietary partitioning in boreal bats
Differences in diet can explain resource partitioning in apparently similar, sympatric species.
Here, we analyzed 1,252 fecal drop**s from five species (Eptesicus nilssonii, Myotis …

Status and trends of tundra birds across the circumpolar Arctic
Tundra-breeding birds face diverse conservation challenges, from accelerated rates of Arctic
climate change to threats associated with highly migratory life histories. Here we summarise …
