Seeing Through an Ant's Eyes: Do Entomopathogenic Fungi Extend Their Cognition to Their Hosts?

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Post‐cognitivist approaches recognize cognition as a phenomenon that involves not just brains but all the sensorimotor apparatus of organisms. This means that brains are not always required for the emergence of cognition and that every organism can, in principle, be cognitive, unlocking a theoretical framework to explain the complex adaptive ...

Neotropical Snakes Reveal Different Geological Times for Dispersal Corridors Between Amazon and Atlantic Forests

Zoologica Scripta, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Three forested dispersal corridors have been proposed within the diagonal of open/dry landscapes in South America and the relative importance of each one has been the subject of debate for forest organisms. We analysed the biogeographical history of three snake genera (Bothrops, Philodryas, and Micrurus) from different families (Viperidae ...
