Ecological and evolutionary consequences of multispecies plant-animal interactions
Article Abstract:
A review of the evidence for criteria identified to detect community-based, diffuse co-evolution indicates that multi-species interactions have demographic consequences for populations, as well as evolutionary consequences. The experimental and analytical techniques, and their limitations, used in the study of multi-species interactions, have been explored.

On the ecological roles of salamanders
Article Abstract:
The key ecological functions of salamanders in terrestrial, riparian, aquatic, and subterranean environments within North America ecosystems have been discussed. The compiled evidence supports a hypothesis that salamanders help provide fundamental biotic control of numerous ecosystem processes.
