The top 10 flying insect clades rule the skies—but defy the rules. Weak or inverted latitudinal diversity gradients leave biogeographers puzzled. Entomologists? Mildly amused. https://t.co/eOIwXVPJHo

Mother Bats Shape Their Pups’ Vocal Development!
Vocal learning isn’t just about listening – it’s about interactions! Our latest study showed that mother bats influence how often their pups practice and how diverse and mature their song syllables are.

my @signalhillfm feature, Caterpillar Roadshow, is featured on @Radiolab this week! it's a story about my mom's 10-year-old Japanese pen pal, his research on intergenerational caterpillar memory, and the questions we can and can't answer.

Vocal signals can plays an important role in recognizing conspecifics.

This new 🦇📄 presents experimental evidence in #Saccopteryx #bilineata recognizing group members and ignoring distress 🔊 playbacks when conflictive. @CurrentBiology

How trace metal concentrations change with age in different 🦇tissues❓ Check out this 📰 using #Pipistrellus #kuhlii #lepidus as an example, a 🦇 that lives for years in one area and is strongly associated with 🌆 environments.

Biodiversiy is declining, yet we have limited knowledge about how that affects human well-being. My work linking bats, insecticide use, and human infant health is out today in Science (https://t.co/gNIbWRdqEj), and tells a complex story about how those are connected.

Join my talk at @ebrs2024 to hear about the trophic interactions between insectivorous bats and tomato leaf miner moths! 🦇🍅 Despite a large mismatch in diel activity patterns, we discovered high predation rates. Friday, 10:50~ @ Room 2

🗓️ Friday, 10:30-11:30 Session

When we don’t know if a scat is from a bear or a wolf, we ask Mister Barley! It’s important to try not to collect off-target scats, as they cost money in lab tech time, pipette tips, primers, etc to analyze without contributing to this study.

🚨 What do we gain by quantifying ephemeral prey distribution at high temporal resolution? We find out just how tightly predators can fine-tune foraging efforts 🧵
