Global comparison of habitat intactness models for predicting extinction risk in terrestrial mammals

Ecography, Volume 2025, Issue 11, November 2025.
The effects of habitat condition on biodiversity have primarily been investigated using discrete (patch‐matrix) habitat models, which consider habitat fragments as islands embedded in an inhospitable matrix. Recently, continuum habitat models, which focus on ecological gradients without defining habitat or matrix, have emerged.

Neopterin as a Tool for Primate Ecoimmunology: Current Knowledge, Practical Application, and New Directions From Captivity to the Wild

American Journal of Primatology, Volume 87, Issue 10, October 2025.
Neopterin is a sensitive and specific biomarker of intracellular pathogen infection and chronic inflammation, and affected by environmental, life‐history, and sex‐contextual factors. This review offers best‐practice guidelines and practical advice on sample collection, storage, and analysis in primates when used for ecoimmunological conservation and ...

Methodological considerations in the analysis of fecal glucocorticoid metabolites in tufted capuchins (Cebus apella) [PDF]

, 2013
Analysis of fecal glucocorticoid (GC) metabolites has recently become the standard method to monitor adrenocortical activity in primates noninvasively. However, given variation in the production, metabolism, and excretion of GCs across species and even ...

Look past the cooperative eye hypothesis: reconsidering the evolution of human eye appearance

Biological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 5, Page 2038-2054, October 2025.
ABSTRACT The external appearance of the human eye has been prominently linked to the evolution of complex sociocognitive functions in our species. The cooperative eye hypothesis (CEH) proposes that human eyeballs, with their weakly expressed conjunctival and scleral pigmentation, are uniquely conspicuous and evolved under selective pressures to behave ...

Arboreal route navigation in a Neotropical mammal: energetic implications associated with tree monitoring and landscape attributes

Movement Ecology, 2019
Background Although navigating along a network of routes might constrain animal movement flexibility, it may be an energetically efficient strategy. Routinely using the same route allows for visually monitoring of food resources, which might reduce the ...
