Abstract:
The present study was carried out in Djambala in the Plateaux Department (Republic of Congo). The objective was to know the specific diversity of the herpetofauna of Djambala and its surroundings. Data collection was done in two phases: in 2010 (for Ophidia) and from November 21 to 22, 2018 (for Anura and Lacertilia). Sampling of the specimens was done using the active method. This method made it possible to inventory 15 species of Amphibians and 23 species of Reptiles. Amphibians have been divided into 5 families, 7 genus and 11 species. The Bufonidae family has the greatest specific richness

Abstract The present study probes into a comparative study of metaphorical expressions of money in English and Chinese. By hiring corpus-based methodology, this article aims to gain insight into the universality and variation of money-related conceptual metaphors manifested in corresponding linguistic expressions in English and Chinese. Drawing on the Conceptual Metaphor Theory, the findings unravel a significant overlay in money-related conceptual metaphors between English and Chinese, upholding a notch of acclaim. Additionally, a small part of money-related conceptual metaphors is specific i

Abstract:
Habitat complexity is an important factor governing species richness and habitat selection in birds. The present study examined this relationship in a large wandoo woodland in Western Australia. Habitat complexity (comprising canopy, shrub, ground vegetation, log and leaf litter cover) and bird species richness was recorded in 48 sites, each ~3 ha in size. We found no significant correlation of habitat complexity with species richness. We propose that the absence of such a relationship results from the resource-poor environment of the woodlands of south-western Australia. The relative scarcity

As impervious cover increases with urban development, stream channels are degraded by increased stormwater runoff, which negatively impacts stream habitat quality and benthic macroinvertebrate diversity.

We then quantified the relationship between taxa and trait richness and diversity and seven microhabitats at the reach scale in ten streams with high habitat quality. We found that both taxa r

Ticks are important vectors of several zoonoses such as severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS), tick-borne encephalitis (TBE), and Japanese spotted fever (JSF), which have been increasing and expanding from west to east in Japan. Since there are no vaccines or treatments for SFTS and TBE and it is difficult to treat JSF in time, tick vector control is necessary. Given that a variety of tick species are involved in the transmission processes, host-animal control might be most effective.

Abstract:
The study of the Algerian islands’ myrmecofauna was undertaken for the first time, particularly on Habibas Island. The inventory of Habibas Island identified 13 ant species. The island’s plant formations, such as the xerophilous shrub group and the xerophilous halophilous shrub group, show a significant correlation with species distribution. Some species, such as Pheidole pallidula, are found in all the formations, while others, such as Aphaenogaster senilis, are specific to a single formation. The centesimal and occurrence frequencies of the species vary considerably, highlighting the predomi

Abstract:
Environmental heterogeneity at fine spatial scales is expected to be especially important in determining community patterns at seed germination and establishment stages. I compared seedling and adult species richness patterns in relation to environmental gradients by adding seeds from 39 species across an elevation gradient, unimodally related to species richness on a limestone pavement. Environmental variables linked to habitat fertility (“available energy”), within-plot spatial or temporal variability (“environmental heterogeneity”), and spatial coordinates were evaluated as contributors to

The extractive exploitation of the tree fern Alsophila setosa Kaulf. alters forest formations and diminishes the availability of micro-habitat for epiphytes. A survey of epiphytic fern communities on A. setosa at 16 study sites in different forest formations in the State of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, documented the occurrence of 31 species representing 16 genera and six families. The greatest richness of species occurred in Polypodiaceae (39%) and in the genus Asplenium L. (22%). Habitual holoepiphyte was the predominant ecological category, representing 61% of the species.

Abstract:
Much crosslinguistic acquisition research explores finiteness marking in typical development and Specific Language Impairment (SLI). Research into Russian, however, has focused on typical acquisition, not SLI. This article presents a first attempt to investigate finiteness marking in monolingual Russian-speaking children with SLI. We test two competing hypotheses: the Extended Optional Infinitive (EOI) hypothesis and the morphological richness account. The former predicts a large proportion of non-finite forms in the speech of children with SLI crosslinguistically. Due to the rich morphologica

Abstract:
Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding is transforming biodiversity monitoring in aquatic environments. Such an approach has been developed and deployed for monitoring lake fish communities in Great Britain, where the method has repeatedly shown a comparable or better performance than conventional approaches. Previous analyses indicated that 20 water samples per lake are sufficient to reliably estimate fish species richness, but it is unclear how reduced eDNA sampling effort affects richness, or other biodiversity estimates and metrics. As the number of samples strongly influences the cost of

Abstract:
Habitat fragmentation is often assumed to negatively impact species diversity because smaller, more isolated populations on smaller habitat patches are at a higher extinction risk. However, some empirical and theoretical studies suggest that landscapes with numerous small habitat patches may support higher species richness, although the circumstances remain elusive. We used an agent-based metacommunity model to investigate this and simulate landscapes of the same total area but diverse patch sizes. Our model, as generic and unbiased by specific assumptions as possible, aimed to explore which c
