Environmental and seasonal correlates of capercaillie movement traits in a Swedish wind farm.

Animals continuously interact with their environment through behavioral decisions, rendering the appropriate choice of movement speed and directionality an important phenotypic trait. Anthropogenic activities may alter animal behavior, including movement. A detailed understanding of movement decisions is therefore of great relevance for science and conservation alike.

Isolation and characterization of 10 highly polymorphic di- and trinucleotide microsatellite markers in the mayfly Ameletus inopinatus (Ephemeroptera: Siphlonuridae).

We describe the isolation of ten polymorphic microsatellite loci from the mayfly Ameletus inopinatus. Loci had di- or trinucleotide repeat motifs and were highly variable with three to 17 alleles (mean = 7.15).
