Abstract:
Background. For several past decades, a notable pollution of the environment by different kinds of solid waste has been noted. The number of studies addressing the issue of utilising debris for nest construction by various species of birds has increased over the past century. It is important to understand the extent to which anthropogenic transformation of the environment in the form of debris affects the nest-building beha­viour of birds and the architecture of the nest itself. In our research we analyse how the pollution of the environment with solid household waste affects the appearance of

Abstract:
Background. Traditionally birds build their nests out of natural materials that are usually found near the location of the future nest. However, along with the expansion of human economic activity and the appearance of various types of antropogenic mate­rials (hereafter debris) that pollute environment, they appeared in bird nests. Although it is hard to predict with certainty what significance this behavior will have for birds in the future, it is possible to investigate which species are prone to such behavior, which unnatural materials birds choose to build nests, and which factors influenc

Abstract:
We examined the nest use of 15 radio-tracked western pygmy-possums (Cercartetus concinnus) throughout one year for up to nine nights each at Innes National Park, South Australia. At least one pygmy-possum was followed in each of 12 months. Nest type and nest fidelity varied greatly; shallow burrows under debris were the most frequently used. Nest preferences of females with young remain unknown. The ability of C. concinnus to use a diversity of nest types over relatively short periods is likely to be an important survival strategy.

Abstract:
A female spider wasp Dipogon variegatus was filmed stealing fragments of pollen-nectar provision from a solitary bee (Osmia cornuta) nest and using them for the construction of her nest. The female wasp applied the sticky fragments of the pollen-nectar provision to the outer surface of her closing nest plug, thus gluing together pieces of debris filling the nesting cavity. Previous descriptions of D. variegatus nests indicate that females of this species usually use spider silk to provide cohesion to the nest plug.

<strong>The present study focuses on the physico-chemical characteristics of the nest rim debris soil of a common, abundant, plant-visiting ant, <em>Camponotus compressus</em></strong> <strong>(Fabricius, 1787)</strong><strong>. The results reveal that the colonies influence the nutrient content and the texture of the debris soil. The nest debris had significantly higher proportion of large-sized soil particles, along with higher total N, P, NO<sub>3</sub>-N, and moisture content but lower concentrations of total C and NH<sub>4</sub>-N as compared to the control soil. <em>Camponotus compressus

Abstract:
The “bird’s nest” fungi (Nidulariaceae) are charismatic mushrooms that look like small nests containing multiple tiny eggs. Because the ecological role of bird’s nest fungi is to decompose wood, they are extremely common in disturbed areas with plant debris and mulch, such as trails and backyard gardens. These fungi tend to grow in large clusters, so it is common to see ten to a hundred of these “nests” at once. Bird’s nest fungi are not considered dangerous to plants, animals, or humans.

Abstract:
I studied nest site selection and brooding behaviour in a population of Eumeces fasciatus at Point Pelee National Park, Ontario, Canada, in 1990, 1991, and 1992. Females preferred large, moderately decayed logs as nest sites. Multiple and communal nests were common in all years even though suitable nest sites were not limited. Soil moisture appeared to be an important physical factor. Soil moisture was higher at nests than at other sites or in the ambient environment. Females varied brooding position according to the moisture level. Brooding positions with high body to egg contact were observe

Abstract:
Pheidole fallax is one the most abundant ants in sites where coal mines have undergone rehabilitation and in forests without mine intervention. The impact that this species may have as an ecosystem engineer needs to be assessed. We aimed to test whether P. fallax nests have an effect on soil chemical properties, to characterize the organic debris found in the refuse piles, and to describe nest architecture as proxy of the bioturbation effect. The study was carried out in a coal mine in Colombia, in sites with 16 and 20 years of rehabilitation. Samples were taken from inside the nests, from the

Abstract Philornis larvae penetrate the host integument, undergo a period of development and growth, and establish as third instar larvae between the dermis and the body musculature (Fig. 5.l(b),(c)). Movement into this location plus growth and development of the fly larvae, appears to be linked to the ingestion of host tissues including red blood cells, mononuclear cells which infiltrate from focal accumulations adjacent to the lesions, and necrotic cellular debris which accumulate in the lesion (Nielsen 1911; Uhazy and Arendt 1986). The larvae develop just under the skin of the host until th

Abstract:
Harlequin ducks (Histrionicus histrionicus) are sea ducks that migrate inland each spring to nest along fast-flowing mountain streams. They are considered one of the most imperiled duck species in North America and occur in two distinct populations on the Atlantic and Pacific coasts. The Pacific coast population includes Washington State, where harlequin ducks breed in the Olympic, Cascade, and Selkirk Mountains. This species is designated as a Management Priority Species by the National Park Service within North Cascades National Park Service Complex (NOCA). This report summarizes harlequin d
