We recorded the song of 25 male Starlings Sturnus vulgaris to investigate differences in song characteristics between yearling and older males. Older males had significantly larger repertoire sizes and sang significantly longer average song bouts tha

Three spined sticklebacks (Gasterosteus aculeatus) were sampled from five different watercourses in Flanders (Belgium). Concentrations of cadmium, lead, copper, and zinc were measured in water, sediment, food, and fish tissues. Considered as food was

In species in which paternal care has an important impact on the offspring's fitness, concealment of reproductive status has been proposed as a strategy employed by females to prevent males from practicing desertion and polygamy, which would then lea

In this study we provide new data on the duration of the inter-menstrual intervals of six captive female bonobos (Pan paniscus). We found that the mean duration of the inter-menstrual interval was about 34 days. This lies close to the average value o

Nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium were supplied to some Belgian fens of varying nutrient status and productivity. Plant growth in the lowest productive fen with a species-rich Caricion davallianae vegetation was strongly P-limited. N was ineffective

Intact rich fen soil cores with controlled water levels near the surface were installed in an open greenhouse. To simulate short term summer drought, water levels were lowered (20 cm) after two weeks in half of the cores (experimental cores) and rema

The habitat of low growing, herbaceous rich-fen vegetation (Caricion davallianae) is now threatened throughout Western Europe. Its conservation, restoration and even recreation receives increasing attention. In the Campine area of Belgium a rich fen,

The uptake of zinc by the freshwater midge larvae Chironomus riparius was studied as a function of salinity. Fourth instar larvae were exposed to a salinity range up to 10‰ by diluting chemically defined seawater with chemically defined river water

We examined (i) whether bonobos display a specific food-calling behavior when discovering a hidden food resource, (ii) whether the presence of competitors affects this behavior, and (iii) whether food quantity or gender influences its appearance. We

We present observations on the variability of sediment penetration depth by the Ponar grab sampler, which lead us to question the reliability of grab samples in the quantitative study of freshwater benthos. Penetration depth of the Petite Ponar grab
