Evolutionary morphology of the haplorhine hamate
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Primates adopt a variety of hand postures during an impressive diversity of locomotor and manipulative behaviors. Morphological research has found that elements of the hand skeleton, such as the hamate, hold key information for inferring hand use and locomotor kinematics in extinct species.

Humans and platyrrhines share a pattern of articular variance
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Previous work has identified a pattern of articular shape variation in modern human limb joints, in which convex joint surfaces exhibit constrained variance relative to their more variable concave conarticulars. This pattern is notable given that joint morphogenesis is influenced by local biomechanical environments, which vary substantially ...

The “costly son” hypothesis: Sons exacerbate obstetrical dilemmas in humans and other mammals
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Human childbirth has often been considered uniquely difficult among mammals, yet recent evidence suggests that obstructed labor and fetopelvic disproportion are widespread across placental mammals. Here, we propose the “costly son” hypothesis: because male offspring are typically larger at birth, they impose greater obstetric risk on mothers ...

Ciência Animal Brasileira, 2006 Trinta hemisférios cerebrais do primata Cebus apella foram estudados. Os cérebros foram injetados com solução de látex corado (neoprene 450 e sulvinil corante), fixados em formaldeído a 10% e dissecados sob lupa óptica para fins de estudo da morfologia ...

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Megadiverse genera represent the highest concentration of plant diversity, but these plants are also located primarily in countries in the Global South where huge gaps in botanical knowledge remain. This study summarized two centuries of Begonia collection records in the Philippines to show how historical events coincide with collection and taxonomic ...

Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 1989 Foi investigada a susceptibilidade do primata Cebus apella (Cebidae) à infecção experimental pela Leishmaiua (Viannia) lainsoni, com o objetivo de estudara patogenia desse parasita, ainda pouco conhecido para o homem. Dessa forma, cinco espécimens jovens

The Platyrrhine Primate Cebus imitator Uses Gaze to Manipulate and Withdraw Food to the Mouth [PDF]
Animal Behavior and CognitionOrienting a food item held in the hand to withdraw and optimally place it in the mouth for eating (withdraw-to-eat) is mediated by vision in catarrhine anthropoids and by nonvisual strategies in strepsirrhine primates.

Insect Science, EarlyView.The level of aggressiveness of an individual is a factor that shapes intraguild predation (IGP) interactions. In Nabis americoferus, high aggressiveness leads to an increase in attack rate and IGP against Harmonia axyridis. Moreover, the absence of extraguild prey seems to exacerbate IGP. In docile N.
