Co-Occurrence and Dispersion Patterns of Mussel Species Within Beds
(2017-07)
To aid in the conservation of freshwater mussels (Bivalvia, Unionidae), a better understanding of how mussel communities are structured is needed. While we know a great deal about the distribution and abundance of mussels ...
Insights on the translocation of a critically endangered crocodylian: Diet and body condition of headstart and wild Philippine crocodiles (Crocodylus mindorensis)
(2019)
Studies of diet are fundamental to understanding a species’ ecology, and in relation to conservation translocations, dietary studies of headstart populations are particularly rare and valuable. These studies can yield ...

(2018)
The Ozarks are a highland system riddled with caves across multiple states within the South-Central United States. During the late Pleistocene retreat of the North American Laurentide ice sheet, habitat and species ...
On the use of Odonata as ecological indicators
(2018)
The insect order Odonata, the dragonflies and damselflies, is unique to use as an ecological indicator for water quality because of its close relationship with aquatic ecosystems and relative ease of observation and ...
EFFECT OF THE TOXIGENIC ALGA PRYMNESIUM PARVUM ON A NATURAL ZOOPLANKTON COMMUNITY
(2016-05-13)
