The distance dependence prediction of the Janzen-Connell hypothesis: a meta-analysis
Article Abstract:
The meta-analysis of the effect of distance on enhancing propagule survival is described. The maintenance of tropical diversity through the interacting effects of parent-centered dispersal patterns and distance-and-density-dependent propagule survival is examined.

Within-brood distribution of ectoparasite attacks on nestling blue tits: a test of the tasty chick hypothesis using inulin as a tracer
Article Abstract:
The aggregated attacks of Protocalliphora within broods of nestling blue tits are examined. The tasty chick hypothesis of potential aggregation of ectoparasite attacks on the smallest chicks in a brood is discussed.

Scale-dependence and mechanisms of dispersal in freshwater zooplankton
Article Abstract:
The rates and mechanisms of dispersal in freshwater pond zooplankton communities are investigated. The role of animal vectors for zooplankton dispersal is examined by restricting access to the pools.
