Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The present study aimed to quantify pesticide residues in environmental matrices and plasma and to evaluate their potential effects on oxidative stress and DNA damage in rural populations of Santa Fe province. Soil and rainwater samples were collected, and biological samples and semistructured surveys were obtained from volunteers in three ...

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 246, Issue 4, Page 558-574, April 2025.Here, we present the most complete dataset to date on the endosseous labyrinths of extant crocodylians. Using 3D geometric morphometrics, we show that allometry constitutes a major contributor of the shape variation of the crocodylian endosseous labyrinths and that the development of this structure is likely linked to the braincase conformation, in all

Behavioral thermoregulation in the spectacled caiman (Caiman sclerops) [PDF]
Behavior Research Methods & Instrumentation, 1976 This report describes an operant conditioning technique for studying crocodilians. As experimental subjects, crocodilians present some special problems. For example, their size limits direct handling. Further, because they may go for prolonged periods without eating, food probably is not an effective reinforcer.

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.Leidyosuchus canadensis and Stangerochampsa mccabei share endocranial features such as posterior projection of a neurovascular canal in the maxilla and a paratympanic sinus system most similar to those of small‐bodied and young extant crocodylians, suggesting that these pedomorphic features may reflect the ancestral crocodylian condition.

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1406-1462, June 2026.ABSTRACT Oropharyngeal food processing exhibits a remarkable diversity among vertebrates, reflecting the evolution of specialised ‘processing centres’ associated with the mandibular, hyoid, and branchial arches. Although studies have detailed various food‐processing strategies and mechanisms across vertebrates, a coherent and comprehensive terminology ...

Climatic Niche Modelling Reveals Limited Phylogenetic Niche Conservatism in New World Crocodylians
Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 6, June 2026.ABSTRACT Aim Phylogenetic niche conservatism, the tendency of closely related species to retain ancestral ecological traits, has gained considerable interest, yet the lack of integration across independent evaluation methods has hindered our understanding of whether niches are conserved or dynamic.
