Intra- and interspecific agonistic behaviour in hatchling Australian freshwater crocodiles (Crocodylus johnstoni) and saltwater crocodiles (Crocodylus porosus) [PDF]

Australian Journal of Zoology, 2013
We examined agonistic behaviour in hatchling Australian freshwater crocodiles (Crocodylus johnstoni) at 2 weeks, 13 weeks, and 50 weeks after hatching, and between C. johnstoni and saltwater crocodiles (Crocodylus porosus) at 40–50 weeks of age. Among C.

Comparative endocranial anatomy in the crocodylians Leidyosuchus canadensis and Stangerochampsa mccabei from the upper Cretaceous of Alberta, Canada

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Leidyosuchus canadensis and Stangerochampsa mccabei share endocranial features such as posterior projection of a neurovascular canal in the maxilla and a paratympanic sinus system most similar to those of small‐bodied and young extant crocodylians, suggesting that these pedomorphic features may reflect the ancestral crocodylian condition.

Endocranial anatomy of the earliest cretaceous European neosuchian crocodyliform Pholidosaurus purbeckensis provides new evidence for the ecological evolution of Pholidosauridae

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We present new insights into the internal cranial anatomy of the neosuchian crocodyliform Pholidosaurus purbeckensis, based on CT‐scan data of material from the lowermost Cretaceous Purbeck Limestone Group, southern UK. From the study of the endocast, we obtained new information on the phylogeny and the ecological evolution of the Family ...

Crocodylus porosus: a potential source of anticancer molecules.

BMJ open science, 2020
Cancer remains a global threat resulting in significant morbidity and mortality despite advances in therapeutic interventions, suggesting urgency for identification of anticancer agents. Crocodiles thrive in polluted habitat, feed on germ-infested meat, are exposed to carcinogenic heavy metals, are the very few species to survive the catastrophic ...

Environmental DNA-based biomonitoring of Cuban Crocodylus and their accompanying vertebrate fauna from Zapata Swamp, Cuba

Scientific Reports, 2023
Crocodylians globally face considerable challenges, including population decline and extensive habitat modification. Close monitoring of crocodylian populations and their habitats is imperative for the timely detection of population trends, especially in

Do You Study What You Eat? Comparing South African Aquatic Food Production Statistics With Research

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT In many countries, foods from aquatic sources provide an important source of protein and key micronutrients. However, aquatic food systems can be impacted by hazards, which drive inefficiencies. Such inefficiencies have consequences for the environmental, economic and social sustainability of food.

Development of a Duplex Digital PCR and Validation on eDNA Water Samples for Monitoring of the Asian Swamp Eel (Monopterus albus/Javanensis) and Bullseye Snakehead (Channa aurolineata/Marulius) in Florida, USA, Freshwater Ecosystems

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
The Asian swamp eel and bullseye snakehead are two invasive organisms in Florida of ecological concern. In this study, a multiplex digital polymerase chain reaction (dPCR) assay is developed, optimized, and validated on water samples for environmental DNA (eDNA) analysis and monitoring. ABSTRACT Invasive species are a significant threat to a variety of

Effects of salinization on tropical freshwater wetland primary producers and aquatic invertebrates

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 2, February 2026.
Sea level rise is expected to transform coastal aquatic ecosystems world‐wide. The freshwater wetlands of tropical northern Australia are among the most biodiverse and productive ecosystems on the continent, but owing to high regional rates of sea level rise coupled with low‐lying land and large tides they are increasingly affected by saltwater ...
