New paper out! 🐦🧬 We report extra-pair paternity and rare quasi-parasitism in a Blue-footed Booby colony in the Gulf of California. EPP was linked to hatching order, but not to the ecological and social factors. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Beyond the pair bond: Extra‐pair paternity and quasi‐parasitism in a Blue‐footed Booby colony

We examined the occurrence of extra-pair paternity (EPP) in a breeding colony of the Blue-footed Booby Sula nebouxii using genotypic data from 79 families (including 121 chicks). We identified EPP in....

New paper! We integrated morphometric and molecular evidence to improve species discrimination in Urotrygonidae round rays from the southeastern Gulf of California. Our results provide a baseline for accurate identification and future research. 🦈🌊 #MarineBiology www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Mapping marine identities: Integrating morphometric and molecular data to distinguish similar round ray species (Urotrygonidae) in the southeastern Gulf of California

The Urotrygonidae family consists of round rays commonly found in shallow waters and estuaries. Identifying these species can be challenging due to th…
