Se dedican a la investigación de los anfibios, un grupo de animales muy amenazado y todavía muy desconocido. Todo impulso que se haga a la ciencia nunca será suficiente. A tope ahí con los tritones 👏🏻#LaRevuelta

🚨Research alert! A study led by Javier Blasco (@jblascoarosteg), a Ph.D. student from @ULisboa_, & Museum curator Lorenzo Prendini reveals new insights about the cave-dwelling scorpion Euscorpius studentium—previously known only from juvenile specimens.

A quick reminder that tomorrow (Friday 4th) I will be talking in the last morning session of #ISBE2024 (9.00 hospitality suite 6) about how habitat modification influences the lifetime fitness of Arabian babbler, a social and cooperatively breeding bird.

[Manjari Jain @minivets]

Today @Kanika_R94 presented our work on the determinants of the movement ecology of Jungle Babblers @ISBE2024
Got important feedback from many on our work, including @mandy_ridley;
Also met and discussed with @YitzchakBM and @AlejandroAlaman and @KeynanOded
Yay #Babblers 😍

11/ These results confirm that habitat modification doesn't only influence the fitness of the populations, also sociality and pace-of-life of the individuals, leading to secondary effects on fitness. Combining both effects are especially important when studying social species
