Spatial partitioning in ecological communities has predominantly been described in two
dimensions, yet habitat is complex and 3D. Complex space use mediates community …

There is a contemporary trend in many major research institutions to de‐emphasize the
importance of natural history education in favor of theoretical, laboratory, or simulation …

Before environmental DNA (eDNA) can establish itself as a robust tool for biodiversity
monitoring, comparison with existing approaches is necessary, yet is lacking for terrestrial …

Protected areas are key to meeting biodiversity conservation goals, but direct measures of
effectiveness have proven difficult to obtain. We address this challenge by using …

DNA obtained from invertebrates (iDNA) can be metabarcoded in order to survey vertebrate
communities. However, little attention has been paid to the interaction between the …

Aim Unsustainable hunting is leading to widespread defaunation across the tropics. To
mitigate against this threat with limited conservation resources, stakeholders must make …

The application of metabarcoding to environmental and invertebrate‐derived DNA (eDNA
and iDNA) is a new and increasingly applied method for monitoring biodiversity across a …

Background Metabarcoding of vertebrate DNA found in invertebrates (iDNA) represents a
potentially powerful tool for monitoring biodiversity. Preliminary evidence suggests fly iDNA …

Abstract Invertebrate‐derived DNA (iDNA), in combination with high throughput sequencing,
has been proposed as a cost‐efficient and powerful tool to survey vertebrate species …

Terrestrial mammals shape their ecosystems, and mammalian community assemblages can
be important indicators of ecosystem functioning and ecosystem changes over time …
