title: Data from: Bourgeois behaviour and freeloading in the colonial orb-web spider Parawixia bistriata (Araneae, Araneidae)

description: Spiders of the tropical American colonial orb weaver Parawixia bistriata
 form a communal bivouac in daytime. At sunset, they leave the bivouac and
 construct individual, defended webs within a large, communally built
 scaffolding of permanent, thick silk lines between trees and bushes. Once
 spiders started building a web, they repelled other spiders walking on
 nearby scaffolding with a “bounce” behavior. In nearly all cases (93%),
 this resulted in the intruder leaving without a fight, akin to the
 “bourgeois strategy,” in which residents win and intruders retreat without
 escalated contests. However, a few spiders (6.5%) did not build a web due
 to lack of available space. Webless spiders were less likely to leave when
 bounced (only 42% left) and instead attempted to “freeload,” awaiting the
 capture of prey items in nearby webs. Our simple model shows that webless
 spiders should change their strategy from bourgeois to freeloading
 satellite as potential web sites become increasingly occupied.

title: Data from: Reduced PICD in monocytes mounts altered neonate immune response to Candida albicans

description: Background: Invasive fungal infections with Candida albicans (C. albicans)
 occur frequently in extremely low birthweight (ELBW) infants and are
 associated with poor outcome. Phagocytosis of C.albicans initializes
 apoptosis in monocytes (phagocytosis induced cell death, PICD). PICD is
 reduced in neonatal cord blood monocytes (CBMO). Hypothesis: Phagocytosis
 of C. albicans causes PICD which differs between neonatal monocytes (CBMO)
 and adult peripheral blood monocytes (PBMO) due to lower stimulation of
 TLR-mediated immune responses. Methods: The ability to phagocytose C.
 albicans, expression of TLRs, the induction of apoptosis (assessment of
 sub-G1 and nick-strand breaks) were analyzed by FACS. TLR signalling was
 induced by agonists such as lipopolysaccharide (LPS), Pam3Cys, FSL-1 and
 Zymosan and blocked (neutralizing TLR2 antibodies and MYD88 inhibitor).
 Results: Phagocytic indices of PBMO and CBMO were similar. Following
 stimulation with agonists and C. albicans induced up-regulation of TLR2
 and consecutive phosphorylation of MAP kinase P38 and expression of
 TNF-alpha which were stronger on PBMO compared to CBMO (p &lt; 0.005).
 Downstream, TLR2 signalling initiated caspase-3-dependent PICD which was
 found reduced in CBMO (p &lt; 0.05 vs PBMO). Conclusion: Our data
 suggest direct involvement of TLR2-signalling in C. albicans-induced PICD
 in monocytes and an alteration of this pathway in CBMO.

title: Data from: Latitudinal species diversity gradient of marine zooplankton for the last three million years

description: High tropical and low polar biodiversity is one of the most fundamental
 patterns characterizing marine ecosystems, and the influence of
 temperature on such marine latitudinal diversity gradients is increasingly
 well documented. However, the temporal stability of quantitative
 relationships among diversity, latitude and temperature is largely
 unknown. Here we document marine zooplankton species diversity patterns at
 four time slices [modern, Last Glacial Maximum (18,000 years ago), last
 interglacial (120,000 years ago), and Pliocene (~3.3-3.0 million years
 ago)] and show that, although the diversity-latitude relationship has been
 dynamic, diversity-temperature relationships are remarkably constant over
 the past three million years. These results suggest that species diversity
 is rapidly reorganized as species’ ranges respond to temperature change on
 ecological time scales, and that the ecological impact of future
 human-induced temperature change may be partly predictable from fossil and
 paleoclimatological records.

title: Data from: Natural selection in novel environments: predation selects for background matching in the body colour of a land fish

description: The invasion of a novel habitat often results in a variety of new
 selective pressures on an individual. One pressure that can severely
 impact population establishment is predation. The strategies that animals
 use to minimize predation, especially the extent to which those strategies
 are habitat or predator specific, will subsequently affect an individuals’
 dispersal ability. The invasion of land by a fish, the Pacific leaping
 blenny, Alticus arnoldorum, offers a unique opportunity to study natural
 selection following the colonization of a novel habitat. Various studies
 have examined adaptations in respiration and locomotion, but how these
 fish have responded to the predation regime on land was unknown. We
 studied five replicate populations of this fish around the island of Guam
 and found their body coloration converged on the terrestrial rocky
 backgrounds on which the fish were most often found. Subsequent
 experiments confirmed that this background matching significantly reduced
 predation. Natural selection has therefore selected for background
 matching in the body coloration of the Pacific leaping blenny to minimize
 predation, but it is a strategy that is habitat specific. A subsequent
 comparative study of closely related blenny species suggested that the
 evolutionary ancestor of the Pacific leaping blenny might have resembled
 the rocky backgrounds on land prior to invasion. The ancestors of the
 Pacific leaping blenny may therefore have already been ideally suited for
 the predator regime on land. More generally our results imply that animals
 must either already possess antipredator strategies that will be effective
 in new environments, or must adapt very quickly to new predation pressures
 if successful establishment is to occur.

title: Data from: Long-lasting effects of logging on beetles in hollow oaks

description: There is growing evidence that biodiversity is important for ecosystem
 functions. Thus, identification of habitat requirements essential for
 current species richness and abundance to persist is crucial. Hollow oaks
 (Quercus spp.) are biodiversity hot spots for deadwood‐dependent insect
 species, and the main objective of this paper was to test the effect of
 habitat history and current habitat distribution at various spatial scales
 on the associated beetle community. We used a gradient spanning 40 km from
 the coast to inland areas reflecting historical logging intensity (later
 and lower intensities inland) through 500 years in Southern Norway, to
 investigate whether the historical variation in oak density is influencing
 the structure of beetle communities in hollow oaks today. We trapped
 beetles in 32 hollow oaks along this gradient in forested and seminatural
 landscapes over two summers. We found higher species richness and total
 abundance inland consistent with our expectation based on historic logging
 intensity. Scale‐specific environmental variables also affected the
 response; beetle abundances were controlled by local conditions, whereas
 beetle species richness responded to habitat on the landscape scale. This
 indicates that long time continuity as well as large areas of favorable
 habitat is necessary to maintain beetle species richness through time in
 these highly long‐lasting structures.

title: Data from: Species-specific germination responses to fire-associated heat of elephant-dispersed seeds in Nimule National Park, South Sudan

description: Fire‐related heat and endozoochory by elephants have independently been
 found to be important for savanna plant seed germination, yet there is
 little information on how heat affects germination of elephant‐dispersed
 seeds. We measured the germination behavior (time to germination and
 proportion of seeds germinating) of 11 species of seeds extracted from
 African savanna elephant dung and subjected them to various intensities of
 heat as a proxy for fire exposure. The effects of heat were inconsistent
 and varied significantly by species, with some species having increased
 time to germination in response to heat and others having reduced time to
 germination. More studies are needed to expand the number of seed species
 examined and tease apart the interaction between elephant‐mediated
 endozoochory and fire.

title: Data from: Population genetic analyses using 10 new polymorphic microsatellite loci confirms genetic subdivision within the olm, Proteus anguinus

description: We provide a comparative population genetic study of the elusive
 amphibian, Proteus anguinus, by comparing the genetic diversity and
 divergence among four cave populations (96 individuals) sampled in the
 Dinaric Karst of Croatia. We developed 10 variable microsatellite markers
 using pyrosequencing and applied them to the four selected populations
 belonging to four different cave systems. The results showed strong
 genetic differentiation between the four caves corroborating with previous
 findings suggesting that Proteus might comprises several unrecognized
 taxa. Our results confirmed that gene flow should be high within the
 caves, whereas it is low between hydrographic systems since geological
 periods. Finally, we conclude that the high genetic subdivision suggests
 the necessity of treating the four studied Proteus populations as
 evolutionary significant units.

title: Data from: Barcoding of ancient lake ostracods (Crustacea) reveals cryptic speciation with extremely low distances

description: Ostracods are drastically reduced crustaceans, with never more than eight
 appendages enclosed between two valves, leaving only a limited number of
 morphological characters for species delineation. Conservative morphology
 of characters used to define genera, along with high variability of
 characters used to define species are creating problems in applying a
 morphospecies concept. A high intraspecific variability in a Lake Biwa
 (Japan) endemic, Physocypria biwaensis (Okubo, 1990), has been observed
 previously but was never studied in detail. Two sympatric forms, differing
 in pigmentation and size, suggest a presence of reproductive isolation.
 The aim of this study is to employ molecular and morphometric tools to aid
 in species delineation within P. biwaensis complex and reconstruct their
 phylogenetic relationships. A fragment of the mtCOI gene was amplified
 from 30 specimens, and an additional 37 specimens were studied for
 morphological characters. Resulting phylogenies showed that each
 morphologically distinct form is associated with a distinct phylogenetic
 group based on mtDNA. The average pairwise distance is very low (5%),
 indicating a recent divergence time. I speculate that there is a
 possibility that one of them originated in the lake, while the other
 probably colonized it afterwards. This seems to be supported with an
 apparent niche partitioning at different depths. In spite of the fact that
 traditionally used sexual characters are highly variable in these two
 species, the morphometric analysis of shell and soft part related
 characters clearly delineates them and suggests that such characters may
 be useful for future detection of seemingly cryptic ostracod species.

title: Data from: Water salinity and inundation control soil carbon decomposition during salt marsh restoration: an incubation experiment

description: Coastal wetlands are a significant carbon (C) sink since they store carbon
 in anoxic soils. This ecosystem service is impacted by hydrologic
 alteration and management of these ecosystems. Efforts to restore tidal
 flow to former salt marshes has increased in recent decades, and is
 generally associated with alteration of water inundation levels and
 salinity. This study examined the effect of water level and salinity
 changes on soil organic matter decomposition during a 60-day incubation
 period. Intact soil cores from impounded freshwater marsh and salt marsh
 were incubated after addition of either seawater or fresh water under
 flooded and drained water levels. Elevating freshwater marsh salinity to 6
 to 9 ppt enhanced CO2 emission by 50% -80% and most typically decreased
 CH4 emissions, whereas, decreasing the salinity from 26 ppt to 19 ppt in
 salt marsh soils had no effect on CO2 or CH4 fluxes. The effect from
 altering water levels was more pronounced with drained soil cores emitting
 ~10-fold more CO2 than the flooded treatment in both marsh sediments.
 Draining soil cores also increased dissolved organic carbon (DOC)
 concentrations. Stable carbon isotope analysis of CO2 generated during the
 incubations of freshwater marsh cores in drained soils demonstrates that
 relict peat OC that accumulated when the marsh was saline was
 preferentially oxidized when seawater was introduced. This study suggests
 that restoration of tidal flow that raises the water level from drained
 conditions would decrease aerobic decomposition and enhance C
 sequestration. It is also possible that the restoration increase soil C
 decomposition of deeper deposits by anaerobic oxidation, however this
 impact would be minimal compared to lower emissions expected due to the
 return of flooding conditions.

title: Data from: Sibling cooperation in earwig families provides insights into the early evolution of social life

description: The evolutionary transition from solitary to social life is driven by
 direct and indirect fitness benefits of social interactions. Understanding
 the conditions promoting the early evolution of social life therefore
 requires identification of these benefits in nonderived social systems,
 such as animal families where offspring are mobile and able to disperse
 and will survive independently. Family life is well known to provide
 benefits to offspring through parental care, but research on sibling
 interactions generally focused on fitness costs to offspring due to
 competitive behaviors. Here we show experimentally that sibling
 interactions also reflect cooperative behaviors in the form of food
 sharing in nonderived families of the European earwig, Forficula
 auricularia. Food ingested by individual offspring was transferred to
 their siblings through mouth-to-anus contacts and active allo-coprophagy.
 These transfers occurred in both the presence and the absence of the
 tending mothers, even though the direct contact with the mothers limited
 sibling food sharing. Neither food deprivation or relatedness influenced
 the total amount of transferred food, but relatedness affected frass
 release and the behavioral mechanisms mediating food sharing. Related
 offspring obtained food predominately through allo-coprophagy, whereas
 unrelated offspring obtained food through mouth-to-anus contacts. Overall,
 this study emphasizes that sibling cooperation may be a key process
 promoting the early evolution of social life.

title: Data from: Breakdown of a defensive symbiosis, but not endogenous defenses, at elevated temperatures

description: Environmental factors, including temperature, can have large effects on
 species interactions, including mutualisms and antagonisms. Most insect
 species are infected with heritable bacterial symbionts with many
 protecting their hosts from natural enemies. However, many symbionts or
 their products are thermally sensitive hence their effectiveness may vary
 across a range of temperatures. In the pea aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum, the
 bacterial symbiont Hamiltonella defensa, and its associated APSE
 bacteriophages confer resistance to this aphid's dominant parasitoid,
 Aphidius ervi. Here we investigate the effects of temperature on both
 endogenous and symbiont-based protection against this parasitoid. We also
 explored the defensive properties of the X-type symbiont, a bacterium
 hypothesized to shape aphid defense when co-occurring with H. defensa. We
 show that H. defensa protection fails at higher temperatures, although
 some aphid genotype and H. defensa strain combinations are more robust
 than others at moderately warmer temperatures. We also found that a single
 X-type strain neither defended against parasitism by A. ervi nor rescued
 lost H. defensa protection at higher temperatures. In contrast, endogenous
 aphid resistance was effective across temperatures, revealing that these
 distinct defensive modes are not equally robust to changing environments.
 Through a survey of field-collected pea aphids we found a negative
 correlation between H. defensa frequencies and average daily temperatures
 across North American locales, fitting expectations for reduced symbiont
 benefits under warm climates. Based on these findings, we propose that
 rising global temperatures could promote the widespread breakdown of
 defensive mutualisms, a prospect with implications for both human and
 ecosystem health.

title: Data from: Short-lived ants take greater risks during food collection

description: Life-history theory predicts that organisms should alter their behavior if
 life expectancy declines. Recent theoretical work has focused on worker
 life expectancy as an ultimate factor in allocating risk-related tasks
 among the workforce in social insects. A key prediction of this
 evolutionary model is that workers with shorter life expectancy should
 perform riskier tasks. We tested this hypothesis using laboratory colonies
 of the ant Myrmica scabrinodis and modified foraging so that it differed
 in level of risk by manipulating distances, temperatures and the presence
 of competitors on foraging patches. The life expectancies of foragers were
 shortened by poisoning with carbon dioxide or by injury through removal of
 their propodeal spines. Both treatments significantly shortened worker
 life expectancy in comparison with untreated ants. We showed, for the
 first time, that foragers with a shorter life expectancy (poisoned or
 injured) foraged under risk more often than foragers in the control group.
 Thus, a worker's strategy of foraging under risky circumstances seems
 fine-tuned to its life expectancy.
