A central challenge of conservation biology is using limited data to predict rare species occurrence and identify conservation areas that play a disproportionate role in regional persistence. Where species occupy discrete patches in a landscape, such

Abstract Capture–recapture studies are widely used in ecology to estimate population sizes and demographic rates. In some capture–recapture studies, individuals may be visually encountered but not identified. For example, if individual identifica

Evolutionary rescue and reintroduction of resistant frogs allows recovery in the presence of a lethal fungal disease

Vast alteration of the biosphere by humans is causing a sixth mass extinction. Adaptation to modified environments often is the only means for species to persist, but the extent to which such “evolutionary rescue” can prevent or reverse biodivers

Infectious pathogens can disrupt the microbiome in addition to directly affecting the host. Impacts of disease may be dependent on the ability of the microbiome to recover from such disturbance, yet remarkably little is known about microbiome recover

Significance Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis [Bd] is one of the most devastating wildlife pathogens ever documented. Most surveys for Bd report only the presence/absence of the pathogen. However, Bd has distinct genetic lineages that vary in geographi
