Complete Mitochondrial Genome of the Araucanian Herring, Strangomera bentincki, Norman, 1936 (Teleostei: Clupeiformes: Clupeidae): Phylogenetic Analysis and Implications in Fishmeal Traceability [PDF]
Araucanian herring or common sardine, S. bentincki (Norman 1936), is a pelagic fish whose main processed products are fishmeal and oil. The complete mitogenome was obtained from one specimen collected at Isla Mocha, Chile (−38.497, −73.619).

Revising the diversity within the Dwarf Dog-faced Bat, Molossops temminckii (Chiroptera, Molossidae), with the revalidation of the endangered Molossops griseiventer [PDF]
The genus Molossops includes two monotypic species of insectivore bats distributed in South America: Molossops neglectus and Molossops temminckii. Both can be differentiated, based on sizes, M. temminckii being smaller (forearm less than 33 mm).

Satellite remote sensing of environmental variables can predict acoustic activity of an orthopteran assemblage [PDF]
Passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) is a promising method for biodiversity assessment, which allows for longer and less intrusive sampling when compared to traditional methods (e.g., collecting specimens), by using sound recordings as the primary data ...
