The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The organization and function of reptilian excurrent ducts remain poorly characterized, particularly in Neotropical snakes. We provide the first integrative morphological, histochemical, immunohistochemical, and ultrastructural analysis of the proximal post‐testicular ducts of Crotalus durissus across reproductive stages.

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Extant turtles occupy freshwater, marine, and terrestrial habitats, and their nasal region provides important evidence for the evolution of respiration‐ and sensory‐related cranial morphology. However, developmental data on the turtle nasal capsule remain limited, particularly in Pleurodira.

A genetic linkage map for the saltwater crocodile (
BMC Genomics, 2009 Background Genome elucidation is now in high gear for many organisms, and whilst genetic maps have been developed for a broad array of species, surprisingly, no such maps exist for a crocodilian, or indeed any other non-avian member of the Class Reptilia.

Human–crocodilian interactions in Latin America and the Caribbean region
Conservation Science and Practice, 2021 Mitigating harmful interactions with wildlife requires an understanding of the interactions between predators, domesticated animals and humans. Large‐scale transformations of crocodilian habitats across the Latin America and Caribbean region, alongside ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Composed of various minerals, the eggshell provides ideal conditions for embryonic development, and understanding its composition and structure is essential for clarifying its relationship with bone formation. This study characterized the structure and mineral profile of the Rhinoclemmys punctularia punctularia eggshell in relation to ...

Oogenesis and germinal bed morphology of the brown anole (A. sagrei)
Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Background The brown anole is a model species of the genus Anolis, a squamate (encompassing lizards and snakes) group widely studied in evolutionary, behavioral, and developmental biology. Full genome annotation, the establishment of gene editing techniques, and comprehensive description of reproductive tract morphology and embryogenesis in ...

Journal of the Agricultural and Applied Economics Association, EarlyView.Abstract A decrease in the price of alligator hides has led to identifying new markets for wild alligator leather. This study investigates crafters' preferences for using alligator leather as a crafting material. In an online survey, we implement hypothetical and real Discrete Choice Experiments to assess crafters' willingness to pay for alligator ...
