Canadian Journal of Zoology, Ahead of Print. Although the squid Lolliguncula diomedeae (Hoyle, 1904) is of commercial and ecological importance in the Gulf of Tehuantepec (southeastern Mexico), this is the first study to examine female spawning strate…
Canadian Journal of Zoology, Ahead of Print. Within species, bird parents defend their nests with different levels of intensity. Previous studies have examined several hypotheses for this variation by looking at factors such as morphological character…
Canadian Journal of Zoology, Ahead of Print. Evaluating body size as an indicator of life history traits is essential for the proper management of invasive species. The body size of alien species may change due to differing climates at the latitudinal…
Canadian Journal of Zoology, Ahead of Print. Rapidly changing climate at high latitudes has triggered a search for bellwethers of ecological change there. If the initial signs of change can be identified, perhaps we can predict where these changes wil…
Canadian Journal of Zoology, Ahead of Print. Determining the year-round spatial distributions of at-risk avian migratory species is critical for effective conservation. High-precision tracking enables the identification of distant breeding and nonbree…
Canadian Journal of Zoology, Ahead of Print. Orthoptera, among the oldest and most numerous insect lineages, is an excellent model for evolutionary studies but has numerous taxonomic problems. To mitigate these issues, the cytochrome c oxidase subunit…
Canadian Journal of Zoology, Ahead of Print. Marine life is increasingly exposed to microplastics, which can be ingested and disrupt the relationship between host tissues and their microbiomes. We investigated the effects of microplastics (5 µm polyst…
Canadian Journal of Zoology, Volume 100, Issue 7, Page 436-451, July 2022. Understanding of the biological diversity, involving molecular phylogenetic methods, is a fundamental task for a broad array of evolutionary, taxonomic, and ecological studies,…
Canadian Journal of Zoology, Ahead of Print. Natural marks have increasingly been used as a tool for individual identification in capture–mark–recapture techniques. Photo-identification is a noninvasive alternative to traditional marking techniques, a…
Canadian Journal of Zoology, Ahead of Print. Animal vocal communication is rife with concepts that, while important, are difficult to evaluate in nature. Particularly interesting is their application to large social mammalian carnivores characterized …
