Haemosporidian Parasites of Antelopes and Other Vertebrates from Gabon, Central Africa. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Re-examination, using molecular tools, of the diversity of haemosporidian parasites (among which the agents of human malaria are the best known) has generally led to rearrangements of traditional classifications.

Gender &History, EarlyView.Abstract This article deals with anxiety about and the shaming of modern urban mothers and wives on the mines of the late colonial Central African Copperbelt. Women's various labours and public presence lead to ambivalent depictions, such as the ‘careless mother’, that were part of a broader array of anxieties about women's autonomy on the mines ...

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.In Alpine chamois, the complete wear of the first molar coincides with the beginning of senescence and the progress of tooth wear on calcareous substrate is slower than the one on other substrates, increasing life expectancy. Thus, the first molar wear may actually be considered as an effective descriptor of senescence stage.

The host status of African buffaloes, Syncerus caffer, for Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) decoloratus
Onderstepoort Journal of Veterinary Research, 2006 The objective of this study was to assess the host status of African buffaloes, Syncerus caffer, for the one-host tick Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) decoloratus. To this end the R. (B.) decoloratus burdens of ten buffaloes examined in three north-eastern

Nature Conservation Research: Заповедная наука, 2020 Eimeria spp. are prevalent specific intestinal protozoa in many host species with a very variable degree of pathogenicity, found worldwide. Wild ruminants are susceptible hosts to such infections; these infections become important especially when held ...

Updated Chorotypes of Terrestrial Vertebrates Shed New Light on Zoogeographical Regions in China
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Chorotype represents a fundamental concept for identifying groups of species that share similar distribution patterns. However, the last comprehensive revision of animal chorotypes in China was performed more than a decade ago. Here, we update the chorotype classifications for 1040 species and propose an updated zoogeographical regionalization scheme ...
