Distinctive, fine‐scale distribution of Eastern Caribbean sperm whale vocal clans reflects island fidelity rather than environmental variables

Publikováno v: Ecology and Evolution, Vol 12, Iss 11, Pp n/a-n/a (2022)

Abstract Environmental variables are often the primary drivers of species' distributions as they define their niche. However, individuals, or groups of individuals, may sometimes adopt a limited range within this larger suitable habitat as a result o

Ocean nomads or island specialists? Culturally driven habitat partitioning contrasts in scale between geographically isolated sperm whale populations

Autor: Felicia Vachon, Taylor A. Hersh, Luke Rendell, Shane Gero, Hal Whitehead

Publikováno v: Royal Society Open Science, Vol 9, Iss 5 (2022)

The sperm whale (Physeter macrocephalus) is a deep-diving cetacean with a global distribution and a multi-leveled, culturally segregated, social structure. While sperm whales have previously been described as ‘ocean nomads’, this might not be uni

What factors shape genetic diversity in cetaceans?

Autor: Hal Whitehead, Felicia Vachon, Timothy R. Frasier

Publikováno v: Ecology and Evolution

Understanding what factors drive patterns of genetic diversity is a central aspect of many biological questions, ranging from the inference of historical demography to assessing the evolutionary potential of a species. However, as a larger number of

Cultural Hitchhiking in the Matrilineal Whales

Autor: Hal Whitehead, Felicia Vachon, Timothy R. Frasier

Publikováno v: Behavior genetics. 47(3)

Five species of whale with matrilineal social systems (daughters remain with mothers) have remarkably low levels of mitochondrial DNA diversity. Non-heritable matriline-level demography could reduce genetic diversity but the required conditions are n
