    Adaptive variation in avian eggshell gas conductance and structure across elevational gradients?

    David Ocampo, Carlos Daniel Cadena ... Gustavo A Londoño
    In Neotropical birds, eggshells show that water vapor conductance declines with elevation, but structural responses vary across species, suggesting no single underlying mechanism and highlighting the need to further evaluate eggshell traits as determinants of elevational limits.

    New idtracker.ai rethinks multi-animal tracking as a representation learning problem to increase accuracy and reduce tracking time

    Jordi Torrents, Tiago Costa, Gonzalo de Polavieja
    Identification of each animal in a collective becomes possible even when individuals are never all visible simultaneously, enabling faster and more accurate analysis of collective behavior.

    Fitness drivers of division of labor in vertebrates

    Irene García-Ruiz, Dustin R Rubenstein
    Direct survival benefits in larger groups rather than kin-selected indirect fitness primarily drive the evolution of division of labor in cooperatively breeding vertebrates, particularly under harsh environmental conditions.
