How complex do models need to be to predict dispersal of threatened species through matrix habitats?
Ecological Applications, 22(5), 1701–1710.
MeSH headings : Animals; Butterflies / physiology; Computer Simulation; Conservation of Energy Resources; Demography; Ecosystem; Endangered Species; Models, Biological; Movement; North Carolina
TL;DR:
Although the gain in predicting dispersal with increasing model complexity was small, so was the increase in financial cost, and more complex models made substantially different predictions than simple models when applied to a novel landscape in which butterflies are to be reintroduced to bolster their populations, these results caution against a pure parsimony approach.

Diversity of plant evolutionary lineages promotes arthropod diversity
ECOLOGY LETTERS, 15(11), 1308–1317.
author keywords: Abundance; arthropods; biodiversity experiments; community ecology; ecosystem function; phylogenetic diversity; trophic levels
MeSH headings : Animals; Arthropods; Biodiversity; Biological Evolution; Conservation of Natural Resources; Food Chain; Phylogeny; Plants
TL;DR:
Drawing on 11 years of data from a long-term plant diversity experiment, it is shown that evolutionary history of plant communities - measured as phylogenetic diversity - strongly predicts diversity and abundance of herbivorous and predatory arthropods.

Common garden experiments reveal uncommon responses across temperatures, locations, and species of ants
ECOLOGY AND EVOLUTION, 2(12), 3009–3015.
Contributors: S. Pelini*, S. Diamond n, H. MacLean *, A. Ellison *, N. Gotelli *, N. Sanders *, R. Dunn n
author keywords: Climate change; common garden; Formicidae; interspecies variation; intraspecies variation; warming experiment
TL;DR:
This work exposed colonies of two common ant species in the eastern United States to growth chamber treatments that simulated current and projected temperatures in central Massachusetts and central North Carolina within the next century, and suggested that populations of some common species may exhibit uniform declines in response to warming across their geographic ranges.

Species abundance and potential biological control services in shade vs. sun coffee in Puerto Rico
AGRICULTURE ECOSYSTEMS & ENVIRONMENT, 151, 1–5.
author keywords: Biodiversity; Biological control; Birds; Coffee; Insects; Lizards
TL;DR:
It is confirmed that shade plantations harbor a wide array of elements of biodiversity; but sun plantations may also harbor many elements of diversity, and in some cases, in higher abundance than in shade plantations.

Pathogen Webs in Collapsing Honey Bee Colonies
PLOS ONE, 7(8).
MeSH headings : Amino Acid Sequence; Animals; Bees / microbiology; Bees / virology; Colony Collapse / microbiology; Colony Collapse / virology; Molecular Sequence Data; Penicillium / enzymology; RNA-Dependent RNA Polymerase / chemistry; RNA-Dependent RNA Polymerase / genetics
TL;DR:
Although pathogen identities differed between the eastern and western United States, there was a greater incidence and abundance of pathogens in CCD colonies, and novel strains of the recently described Lake Sinai viruses were identified and found evidence of a shift in gut bacterial composition that may be a biomarker of CCD.

Partial life-cycle and acute toxicity of perfluoroalkyl acids to freshwater mussels
ENVIRONMENTAL TOXICOLOGY AND CHEMISTRY, 31(7), 1611–1620.
author keywords: Perfluoroalkyl acids; Perfluorinated compounds; Akaike's information criteria; Unionidae
MeSH headings : Alkanesulfonic Acids / toxicity; Animals; Caprylates / toxicity; Female; Fluorocarbons / toxicity; Fresh Water / chemistry; Larva / drug effects; Toxicity Tests, Acute; Unionidae / drug effects; Unionidae / growth & development; Water Pollutants, Chemical / toxicity
TL;DR:
The partial life‐cycle test is adaptable to a variety of endpoints and research objectives and is useful for identifying adverse effects at contaminant concentrations below those required for an acute lethal response.

Do national advisories serve local consumers: an assessment of mercury in economically important North Carolina fish
JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING, 14(5), 1410–1416.
MeSH headings : Animals; Conservation of Natural Resources; Consumer Health Information / methods; Environmental Exposure / analysis; Environmental Exposure / statistics & numerical data; Fisheries / statistics & numerical data; Food Contamination / statistics & numerical data; Food Safety; Guidelines as Topic; Humans; Information Dissemination; Mercury / analysis; Mercury / metabolism; Mercury / standards; North Carolina; Seafood / analysis; Seafood / standards; Seafood / statistics & numerical data; United States; United States Environmental Protection Agency; Water Pollutants, Chemical / analysis; Water Pollutants, Chemical / metabolism; Water Pollutants, Chemical / standards
TL;DR:
The authors' local results were not always consistent with calculated averages from EPA and FDA databases for the same species, and although many of their findings were consistent with Monterey Bay Aquarium's Seafood Watch List (southeast region), recommendations based on Hg levels would conflict with recommendations they provide based on sustainability.

Disruption of ant-seed dispersal mutualisms by the invasive Asian needle ant (Pachycondyla chinensis)
BIOLOGICAL INVASIONS, 14(3), 557–565.
Contributors: M. Rodriguez-Cabal *, K. Stuble*, B. Guénard n, R. Dunn n & N. Sanders *
author keywords: Aphaenogaster rudis; Exotic species; Hexastylis arifolia; Myrmecochory; Seed-dispersal mutualisms
TL;DR:
The hypothesis that the invasive ant Pachycondyla chinensis disrupts ant-seed dispersal mutualisms by displacing native ant species, especially the keystone mutualist Aphaenogaster rudis, while failing to disperse seeds itself is tested.

Carnivore Translocations and Conservation: Insights from Population Models and Field Data for Fishers (Martes pennanti)
PLOS ONE, 7(3).
MeSH headings : Animals; Carnivora / growth & development; Conservation of Natural Resources / methods; Ecosystem; Female; Geography; Male; Models, Biological; Mustelidae / growth & development; North America; Population Dynamics; Software
TL;DR:
This model predicts that the most important factor influencing successful re-establishment of a fisher population is the number of adult females reintroduced (provided some males are also released), and hypothesizes that many males may need to be released to insure a sufficient number of good breeders are included, probably large males.

Acute effects of road salts and associated cyanide compounds on the early life stages of the unionid mussel Villosa iris
ENVIRONMENTAL TOXICOLOGY AND CHEMISTRY, 31(8), 1801–1806.
author keywords: Unionidae; Freshwater mussel; Cyanide; Road salt; Toxicity
MeSH headings : Adolescent; Animals; Cyanides / toxicity; Environmental Monitoring; Humans; Larva / drug effects; Salts / toxicity; Sodium Chloride / toxicity; Unionidae / drug effects; Unionidae / growth & development; Water Pollutants, Chemical / toxicity
TL;DR:
Assessment of the acute toxicity of cyanide compounds and road salts containing cyanide anticaking agents on glochidia and juveniles of the freshwater mussel Villosa iris indicates that cyanide‐containing anticaking Agents do not exacerbate the toxicity of road salts, but that the use ofRoad salts and brine solutions for deicing or dust control on roads may warrant further investigation.

TL;DR:
The conserved synteny between striped bass and stickleback will facilitate fine mapping of genome regions of interest and will serve as a new resource for comparative mapping with other Perciform fishes such as European sea bass and tilapia.
