Habitat fragmentation is a key driver of reduced genetic connectivity and loss of genetic variation among populations, elevating the risk of inbreeding depression and reduced adaptive potential. The black-throated finch ( Poephila cincta ) is an endemic Australian finch with two recognised subspecies, a northern ( P. c. atropygialis ) and southern form ( P. c. cincta ) separated by a biogeographic barrier in northern Australia...
Informal supply chains of wild meat from rural Amazonia and food security in an urban centerNARA Subscribed
Iquitos, the most populated city in the Peruvian Amazon, is a hub in the regional supply chain of wild meat and supplies urban consumers. Studies on wild meat consumption have focused primarily on markets, limiting the scope of species considered to those that are economically valuable and potential inferences from those data. We conducted interviews with 1548 households in Iquitos across all four districts to assess wild meat...
Adherence to the Eatwell Guide and associations with markers of physical function: a prospective analysis within the UK Biobank cohortNARA Subscribed
The Eatwell Guide represents the UK’s principal healthy eating model and understanding whether adherence to UK dietary recommendations can attenuate age-related functional decline is essential to inform healthy ageing strategies. In up to 157,457 participants from the UK Biobank, we explored cross-sectional and prospective associations between adherence to the Eatwell Guide and markers of physical function (grip strength, fat-...
Implications of the first recording of European silver eels Anguilla anguilla in the inland waters of CyprusNARA Subscribed
Migrating silver European eels Anguilla anguilla are reported from the inland waters of the island of Cyprus for the first time, expanding the known geographic range in the Eastern Mediterranean of emigrating adults of this critically endangered, catadromous species. Silver eels were captured attempting to migrate to sea from two separate locations. This is important, as Cyprus was previously exempt from European eel managemen...
Indigenous Perspectives on the Co-management of a Regional Conservation Area in the Peruvian AmazonNARA Subscribed
Growing awareness of the critical role Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities (IPLCs) play in biodiversity conservation has underscored the need to shift conservation practices towards empowering IPLCs, supporting their land rights, traditional practices, and facilitating their political involvement. Despite IPLCs governing over 32% of global land, historically these communities have faced systemic marginalization and violen...
Native trees are related to advanced bird breeding phenology and increased reproductive success along an urban gradientNARA Subscribed
Urban areas are altered from natural landscapes in several ways that can impact wildlife. Birds are widespread in urban areas, and it is well documented that there are phenotypic differences between urban and non‐urban conspecifics. However, little is known about which characteristics of the urban environment are driving differences. We used 9 years of data from nest boxes spread across 20 sites along a 40‐km urban–non‐urban g...
