Lycalopex vetulus (Carnivora: Canidae) [PDF]

Mammalian Species, 2009
Lycalopex vetulus (Lund, 1842), commonly called the hoary fox, is Brazil's smallest canid. It has a slender body and limbs and a small skull composed of relative fragile bones. Its size and skull characteristics combined with its peculiar dentition make it more suitable for an insectivorous diet rather than one of large vertebrates. L.

Occurrence and distribution of sarcoptic mange in wild Neotropical canids

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Sarcoptic mange affects most Neotropical canid species across multiple countries. It represents a widespread yet largely overlooked conservation threat with potential for cross‐species transmission. Coordinated monitoring and management efforts are needed to understand and mitigate its impacts. Abstract Sarcoptic mange, a contagious skin disease caused

Ask Me Anything: Free-form Visual Question Answering Based on Knowledge from External Sources

, 2016
We propose a method for visual question answering which combines an internal representation of the content of an image with information extracted from a general knowledge base to answer a broad range of image-based questions.

Identification of camera trap images by artificial intelligence and human experts produces similar multi‐species occupancy models

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 5, May 2026.
The use of a global AI classifier to identify species and reproducible pre‐ and post‐processing decisions makes our approach broadly applicable and particularly beneficial for national and international monitoring programs that collect large amounts of photo data on threatened, at risk, or management sensitive species and wildlife communities.

Beyond Domestication: Occurrence of Levator Anguli Oculi Medialis and Retractor Anguli Oculi Lateralis in Four Neotropical Canid Species

Anatomia, Histologia, Embryologia, Volume 55, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The facial mimetic muscles levator anguli oculi medialis (LAOM) and retractor anguli oculi lateralis (RAOL) have been associated with expressive eye movements in canids and proposed as products of domestication. We investigated their occurrence in four Neotropical species (Lycalopex gymnocercus, Lycalopex vetulus, Cerdocyon thous and ...

Beyond the Black Box: Reproductive Strategies of the Black Soldier Fly as a Model for Bridging Evolutionary Biology and Applied Entomology

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The black soldier fly (BSF; Hermetia illucens) is rapidly emerging as a model for evolutionary biology and insect biotechnology. Although larval biology has been extensively characterised, the reproductive biology of adults remains comparatively understudied.

Potential transmission chains of variant B.1.1.7 and co-mutations of SARS-CoV-2

Cell Discovery, 2021
The presence of SARS-CoV-2 mutants, including the emerging variant B.1.1.7, has raised great concerns in terms of pathogenesis, transmission, and immune escape.

Fleas as parasites of the family Canidae [PDF]

Parasites & Vectors, 2011
Historically, flea-borne diseases are among the most important medical diseases of humans. Plague and murine typhus are known for centuries while the last years brought some new flea-transmitted pathogens, like R. felis and Bartonella henselae. Dogs may play an essential or an accidental role in the natural transmission cycle of flea-borne pathogens ...

Graman Revisited Once Again: A Reanalysis of the Late Holocene Legacy Faunal Assemblage From GB4 Rockshelter, New South Wales

Archaeology in Oceania, Volume 61, Issue 1, Page 199-220, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The archaeological site Graman B4 provided one of the first records of substantial dietary change in ancient Australian Aboriginal society. Initial examination of the faunal remains from this site suggested that Late Holocene hunters reduced their focus on high‐ranked kangaroos to increasingly rely on arboreal possums; and that these ...
