Context Urban landscapes are a mixture of built structures, human-altered vegetation, and
remnant semi-natural areas. The spatial arrangement of abiotic and biotic conditions …

Widespread human development has led to the proliferation of artificial light at night, an
increasingly recognized but poorly understood component of anthropogenic global change …

Abstract Relative to the West Indies, the ecology and evolution of anoles inhabiting islands
off Central and South America have received little attention. The paucity of studies on …

When foraging, animals can maximize their fitness if they are able to tailor their foraging
decisions to current environmental conditions. When making foraging decisions, individuals …

Although abiotic and biotic factors can interact to shape the spatial niche of a species,
studies that explore the interactive effects of both at a local scale are rare. We demonstrate …

Animals are known to engage in different behaviors in different parts of their home range,
and the overall habitat occupied by an individual influences where it engages in particular …

Competition for resources between sympatric species can result in reduced fitness.
Resource partitioning allows the minimization of competitive pressures, consequently …

Human conversion of land cover alters biotic communities and sets the stage for ongoing
change as species interact within new environments. We studied the response of a native …

Body size is a key trait linked to many aspects of an organism's life history, physiology, and
behavior. Variation in body size can thus have important fitness consequences across a …

Lizards of the genus Anolis have been widely studied, however, little is known about the
effects of environmental seasonality, food availability and geographic isolation on body …
