Niche differentiation, reproductive interference, and range expansion (2023)
Journal Article
Grether, G. F., Finneran, A. E., & Drury, J. P. (2024). Niche differentiation, reproductive interference, and range expansion. Ecology Letters, 27(1), https://doi.org/10.1111/ele.14350

Understanding species distributions and predicting future range shifts requires considering all relevant abiotic factors and biotic interactions. Resource competition has received the most attention, but reproductive interference is another widesprea... Read More about Niche differentiation, reproductive interference, and range expansion.

A chromosome-level genome assembly for the smoky rubyspot damselfly (Hetaerina titia) (2023)
Journal Article
Patterson, C. W., Bonillas-Monge, E., Brennan, A., Grether, G. F., Mendoza-Cuenca, L., Tucker, R., …Drury, J. (2024). A chromosome-level genome assembly for the smoky rubyspot damselfly (Hetaerina titia). Journal of Heredity, 115(1), https://doi.org/10.1093/jhered/esad070

Smoky rubyspot damselflies (Hetaerina titia Drury, 1773) are one of the most commonly encountered odonates along streams and rivers on both slopes of Central America and the Atlantic drainages in the US and southern Canada. Owing to their highly vari... Read More about A chromosome-level genome assembly for the smoky rubyspot damselfly (Hetaerina titia).

Competitive displacement and agonistic character displacement, or the ghost of interference competition (2023)
Journal Article
McEachin, S., Drury, J. P., & Grether, G. F. (2024). Competitive displacement and agonistic character displacement, or the ghost of interference competition. The American Naturalist, 203(3), https://doi.org/10.1086/728671

Interference competition can drive species apart in habitat use through competitive displacement in ecological time and agonistic character displacement (ACD) over evolutionary time. As predicted by ACD theory, sympatric species of rubyspot damselfli... Read More about Competitive displacement and agonistic character displacement, or the ghost of interference competition.

Macrobehaviour: behavioural variation across space, time, and taxa (2023)
Journal Article
Keith, S. A., Drury, J. P., McGill, B. J., & Grether, G. F. (2023). Macrobehaviour: behavioural variation across space, time, and taxa. Trends in Ecology and Evolution, 38(12), 1177-1188. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tree.2023.08.007

We explore how integrating behavioural ecology and macroecology can provide fundamental new insight into both fields, with particular relevance for understanding ecological responses to rapid environmental change. We outline the field of macrobehavio... Read More about Macrobehaviour: behavioural variation across space, time, and taxa.

Interspecific behavioural interference and range dynamics: current insights and future directions (2023)
Journal Article
Patterson, C. W., & Drury, J. P. (2024). Interspecific behavioural interference and range dynamics: current insights and future directions. Biological Reviews, 98(6), 2012-2027. https://doi.org/10.1111/brv.12993

Novel biotic interactions in shifting communities play a key role in determining the ability of species' ranges to track suitable habitat. To date, the impact of biotic interactions on range dynamics have predominantly been studied in the context of...

Interspecific territoriality has facilitated recent increases in the breeding habitat overlap of North American passerines (2023)
Journal Article
Nesbit, D., Cowen, M., Grether, G., & Drury, J. (2023). Interspecific territoriality has facilitated recent increases in the breeding habitat overlap of North American passerines. Ecography, 2023(6), Article e06573. https://doi.org/10.1111/ecog.06573

As species’ ranges shift in response to human-induced global changes, species interactions are expected to play a large role in shaping the resultant range dynamics and, subsequently, the composition of modified species assemblages. Most research on... Read More about Interspecific territoriality has facilitated recent increases in the breeding habitat overlap of North American passerines.
