Fossil mammals from the Gondolin Dump A ex situ hominin deposits, South Africa [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 The Gondolin palaeokarstic system, located in the UNESCO Fossil Hominids of South Africa World Heritage Site, has been sporadically excavated since the 1970s. Sampling of ex situ dumpsites in 1997 recovered the only two fossil hominin specimens recovered

Tex19 and Sectm1 concordant molecular phylogenies support co-evolution of both eutherian-specific genes [PDF]
, 2015 International audienceBackground: Transposable elements (TE) have attracted much attention since they shape the genome and contribute to species evolution. Organisms have evolved mechanisms to control TE activity. Testis expressed 19 (Tex19) represses TE

A hypothesis-based approach to species identification in the fossil record: a papionin case study
Frontiers in Ecology and EvolutionModern papionin monkeys are a diverse group that encompasses a broad range of morphologies, behaviors, and ecologies. A fossil genus known from African Plio-Pleistocene deposits, Parapapio, is widely regarded as a candidate ancestor to later African ...

First record of Theropithecus (Cercopithecidae) from the Republic of Djibouti
Journal of Human Evolution, 2020 We describe here several specimens of the genus Theropithecus from the southern shore of Lake Assal in the Republic of Djibouti; they are the first record of the genus from this country. We assign them to a derived stage of T. oswaldi. This identification has implications for the age of the informal 'Formation 1' from this area, which should probably ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.This study explores the drivers of mammalian functional diversity in Benoué National Park, Cameroon, focusing on the combined effects of environmental filtering, spatial structure, and plant–animal interactions. Results show that both vegetation characteristics and spatial configuration significantly influence trait distribution, highlighting the ...
