Morphological and molecular characterization of Brevimulticaecum sinensis sp. nov. (Nematoda: Ascaridoidea) from Alligator sinensis (Crocodilian: Alligatoridae) [PDF]

International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife
Brevimulticaecum sinensis sp. nov. is a novel species belonging to the genus Brevimulticaecum (Nematoda: Heterocheilidae). It was detected in the stomach of a carcass of a Chinese alligator (Alligator sinensis Fauvel, 1879; Crocodilian: Alligatoridae) at

Extremely limited spatial and temporal utilization for wild Chinese alligator (<i>Alligator sinensis</i>). [PDF]

Biol Lett
Habitat adaptation critically influences relocation success in endangered reptiles. Forestland is the dominant landscape in most of the nature reserves that are used for the relocation of the Chinese alligator. To evaluate habitat suitability and utilization, we analysed movement rates and home range of Chinese alligators within a ...

An extinct deep-snouted Alligator species from the Quaternary of Thailand and comments on the evolution of crushing dentition in alligatorids

Scientific Reports, 2023
Fossil Alligator remains from Asia are critical for tracing the enigmatic evolutionary origin of the Chinese alligator, Alligator sinensis, the only living representative of Alligatoridae outside the New World. The Asian fossil record is extremely scarce
