Joint Angular Excursions and Angular Range Utilization During Stance‐Phase Locomotion in Terrestrial Mammals: A Comparative Morphofunctional Data Set

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, Volume 345, Issue 4, Page 361-376, May 2026.
This study quantifies stance‐phase joint angular excursions and angular utilization (AUI%) during walking in 182 terrestrial mammal species. Across mammals, total limb excursion during stance (TAE) decreases with increasing body mass, whereas AUI% remains broadly conserved, indicating similar proportional use of summed joint excursions to generate net ...

Metabolism Controls the Timing of Human Brain Development and Maturation

open access: yesJournal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 49, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Among primates the human brain is the largest in size, exhibiting a higher neuronal density and connectivity. The prolonged expansion and subsequent connectome reorganization of the human brain have been suggested to promote higher cognitive and behavioral abilities.

Functional Morphology of the Oral Jaws and Dentition Across Diverse Diets and Ontogeny in Prickleback Fishes (Stichaeidae)

open access: yesJournal of Morphology, Volume 287, Issue 5, May 2026.
Prickleback fishes (Stichaeidae) feed upon diverse diets, spanning carnivory (orange), omnivory (blue), and herbivory (green). We used microCT scanning to explore the functional morphology of the oral jaws and dentition across species and ontogeny. Focal species vary by morphotype and have divergent scaling patterns across diets.

Below the leaves: Integrating above‐ and below‐ground phenology for earth‐system predictability

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 5, Page 1251-1269, May 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Almost every aspect of biological systems has phenology—a pattern in activity or function linked to annual cycles. Most terrestrial phenology research focusses on leaves, the onset of leaf out or senescence.
