Spatial and Social Organization in a Burrow-Dwelling Lizard (Phrynocephalus vlangalii) from China
Shared ecological resources such as burrow complexes can set the stage for social groupings and the evolution of more complex social behavior such as parental care. Paternity testing is increasingly revealing cases of kin-based groupings, and lizards may be a good system to inform on the early evolution of sociality. We examined spatial and social organization in the lizard Phrynocephalus vlang...
متن کاملEstimation of Crustacean Habitat Distribution by Counting Their Burrow on Amparu Tidal Flat, Ishigaki Island
AMPARU is a large tidal lagoon located on the west coast of Ishigaki Island, where a variety of small crabs range over. In these thirty years, however, accumulation of red clay from the watershed has been changing the topography and the hydraulic characteristics of the lagoon, and then changing the environments for the crabs to habitat there. This paper presents a result of a field survey that ...
متن کاملNest Enlargement in Leaf-Cutting Ants: Relocated Brood and Fungus Trigger the Excavation of New Chambers
During colony growth, leaf-cutting ants enlarge their nests by excavating tunnels and chambers housing their fungus gardens and brood. Workers are expected to excavate new nest chambers at locations across the soil profile that offer suitable environmental conditions for brood and fungus rearing. It is an open question whether new chambers are excavated in advance, or will emerge around brood o...
متن کاملBrood chamber isolation during salinity stress in two estuarine mollusk species: from a protective nursery to a dangerous prison
Faced with environmental stress, the females of many marine invertebrate species can isolate their brood chambers from the external environment for prolonged periods. Although brood chambers have therefore typically been assumed to protect the brooded embryos, the effects of continued isolation on conditions within brood chambers have not been examined. In the present research, we investigated ...
