Ստորև The Daily Mail-ն ուշագրավ ֆոտոշարքով ներկայացնում է տարբեր անվանակարգերում հաղթած լուսանկարները, որոնց օրիգինալ տարբերակները նոյեմբերի 26-ին ցուցադրության կհանվեն Լոնդոնում.

Tadpoles overhead. Overall winner, Category winner: Ecology and Environmental Science. Tadpoles of many anuran species come in high numbers, but not many make it to adulthood. Here a group of common toad (Bufo bufo) tadpoles is seen from below by Bert Willaert, Belgium. It was shot with a canon G12 camera in a Recsea underwater housing and a Dyron dome port.

Ancestry. Dominance. Endangered.Runner up: Ecology and Environmental Science. 'This photo shows the strength and power of gorillas, one of our closest living relatives, yet also shows their vulnerability due to the pressures put on their world by humans, said photographer Martha Robbins, from Germany. 'Taken in Rwanda, I observed the gorillas walking to the eucalyptus trees outside of the Volcanoes National Park and watched them strip the bark with their teeth. Within a few minutes, the silverback of the group sat down to eat bark and faced out towards the farmland -- almost as if he was contemplating the human society that lives next to the gorillas' habitat.'

Going with the flow: schooling to avoid a predator. Category winner: Behaviour. A school of tropical clupeid fish exhibit synchronized behaviour to keep a healthy distance from a teenage black-tip reef shark. Sharks would cruise placidly for hours without so much as looking at the smaller fish, until, all of a sudden, they would strike and gobble up a mouthful of clupeids. The picture was taken on a shallow reef flat on Kuramathi Island in the Rasdhoo Atoll, Republic of Maldives

Caribbean brain coral. Special commendation: Proceedings B Publisher's choice. The deep and abundant mysteries of reef building corals - their systematics, genetics, and phenotypic plasticity (variability in form possible within a single genetic individual) are only just now yielding their secrets to modern science.

SEM  Argulus ventral view. Branchiura, commonly called carp lice or fish lice are a group of parasitic crustaceans of uncertain position within the Maxillopoda. Although they are thought to be primitive forms, they have no fossil record. Almost all are ectoparasites on fish. Argulus attaches itself to the skin or fins and feeds on blood by inserting it's stylet feeding apparatus into the flesh.

Bitis peringueyi hiding under sand.  Sand has scales. Runner up: Evolutionary Biology. Bitis peringueyi is an endemic adder from the Nabib desert. It's an ambush predator, highly equipped for the job. Many snakes are disguise masters but few completely burrow their entire body beneath the surface and fewer have their eyes located on the top of their head.

A baboon gets lost in his thoughts at Cape Point Reserve, South Africa. Special commendation. I was taking photos of a group of baboons trying to capture some interesting action shots.  I noted this baboon sitting and facing the sun with his eyes closed, once I got close enough, without distracting him, he put one hand under his face, posing as though he was lost in his thoughts.

Smashing. Runner up: Behaviour. An adult wild bearded capuchin monkey  uses a stone tool to crack a very resistant palm nut in Fazenda Boa Vista (Piauì, Brazil). These monkeys habitually crack open very resistant palm nuts on hard surfaces using stones as percussive tools. This behaviour is considered one of the most complex forms of tool use by nonhuman species seen in nature.

Runs at Dawn(BE377)Special commendation: Biology Letters publisher?s choiceIn the Canary Islands of Lanzarote and Fuerteventura, after every winter rains Canarian Houbarabustard (Chlamydotis undulata) males begin their impressive courtship displays. From dawn onwards these males display at their favourite places and from there scamper around showing their plumage in all its glory.Technical details: Hide, camera body: Nikon D3s, Lens: Sigma VR 150-600mm sport at 600mm, aperture f/6,3, Shutter speed 1/8seg, ISO 800, Tripod.
