In many marine species and some terrestrial species, reproductive behavior is synchronized with a particular phase of the lunar cycle.
“In many marine species (1–5) and some terrestrial species (6–9), reproductive behavior is synchronized with a particular phase of the lunar cycle (often full or new moon).”
From Women temporarily synchronize their menstrual cycles with the luminance and gravimetric cycles of the Moon (2021) · cites this paper as [7]
In the European badger, lunar timing is superimposed on a seasonal breeding cycle.
“Also in this species, lunar timing is superimposed on a seasonal breeding cycle.”

The European badger typically mates in February to March, soon after females have given birth to the previous litter; during lactation, embryos are in a diapause state, before seasonal cues (photoperiod and temperature) lead to implantation around the end of December.
“The animals typically mate in February to March, soon after the females have given birth to the previous litter. During lactation, the embryos are in a diapause state, before seasonal cues (photoperiod and temperature) lead to implantation around the end of December (62, 63).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
