Phylogenetic Reconstruction of Lung Evolution in Extant Squamata
Journal of Zoology, EarlyView.The Squamata group exhibits remarkable diversity in lung structure. However, a comprehensive understanding of how this variation evolved within the clade is still lacking. To reconstruct the evolutionary history of lungs of living squamates, we conducted comparative phylogenetic analyses using categorized lung traits, such as lung type, respiratory ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.We investigated ontogenetic variation in diet composition of the Amur softshell turtle (Pelodiscus maackii) from a temperate large‐river system using stomach content analyses of field‐collected individuals. Dietary composition differed markedly across body‐size classes, indicating pronounced ontogenetic trophic differentiation and shifts in resource ...
