ABSTRACT Hyperostosis is a non‐pathological condition widely reported in marine teleosts, yet its developmental dynamics and underlying drivers remain poorly understood. This study investigates the ontogenetic progression and anatomical distribution of hyperostosis in Caranx hippos based on a growth series of 39 specimens collected along the Brazilian ...

Microcystins (MCs), produced by harmful cyanobacterial blooms, pose a threat to aquatic ecosystems and public health in the Yangtze River basin, including Lake Chaohu, which implemented a ten-year fishing ban in 2021 for ecological restoration.

We reconstruct the major cranial musculature of the giant stem amphibian Mastodonsaurus giganteus, revealing a differentiated jaw‐adductor system, a probable sesamoid pulley, and previously unrecognised muscles. This EPB‐based case study establishes an anatomical framework for modelling feeding in early tetrapods and supports interpretations of ...

The geographical extent of occurrence of the Solanaceae‐feeding Henosepilachna vigintioctopunctata on the novel fabaceous host Centrosema molle and the ability of larvae from several beetle populations to develop on C. molle were investigated to depict the incipient phase in the speciation continuum of herbivorous ladybird beetles.

Corneal Sequestration and Bilateral Distichiasis in a Binturong (Arctictis binturong)
ABSTRACT Objective To report the first documented case of corneal sequestration and distichiasis in a binturong (Arctictis binturong), discuss implications of disease prevalence in a non‐domestic feliform, and hypothesize on potential etiology and predisposing factors for corneal sequestration.

Attractants in plant protein-based diets for the carnivorous largemouth bass Micropterus salmoides
Adding attractants can improve acceptability of artificial diets by carnivorous fish fry and fingerlings, increasing intake of unpalatable feeds and improving growth rate, while reducing feeding time and feeding wastes.

A new musculoskeletal reconstruction and revision of the cranio‐mandibular anatomy of the Devonian arthrodire placoderm Dunkleosteus terrelli from a comparative and functional anatomical perspective. Dunkleosteus is a specialized arthrodire with many specializations for feeding on large vertebrates, and many of its features are part of broader ...

Skeletal pathologies in extant crocodilians as a window into the paleopathology of fossil archosaurs
Abstract Crocodilians, together with birds, are the only extant relatives to many extinct archosaur groups, making them highly important for interpreting paleopathological conditions in a phylogenetic disease bracketing model. Despite this, comprehensive data on osteopathologies in crocodilians remain scarce.

Abstract Teleocichla comprises small cichlids that inhabit the rapid streams of Amazonian rivers; however, there has been limited research on their encephalon morphology. This study examined the neuroanatomy of four species, focusing on volumetric measurements of their encephalon subregions, and providing a histological description of the encephalon of

eDNA Metabarcoding Reveals the Depth-Structured Variation of Coral Reef Fish
Global coral reef ecosystems face various levels of disturbance pressure. Understanding the depth-structured variation in coral reef fish communities can help us to better grasp and predict the adaptive changes of the ecosystem under different stressors.
