La mordida del cocodrilo americano (Crocodylus acutus), ¿es potencialmente séptica?

REVISTA BIOMÉDICA, 2005
Morder y asir son los principales mecanismos utilizados por los reptiles para capturar a sus presas. Son tan simples, que sólo requieren que el animal coloque su cabeza cerca del alimento. La aproximación puede realizarse con un rápido movimiento de la cabeza y del cuello, o al desplazar todo el cuerpo.

A second species of non‐crocodyliform crocodylomorph from the Late Triassic fissure deposits of southwestern UK: Implications for locomotory ecological diversity in Saltoposuchidae

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The Late Triassic–Early Jurassic fissures of the Bristol Channel area (southwest England and south Wales) are renowned for their diverse vertebrate faunas. These assemblages have yielded an array of predominantly small‐bodied forms that are crucial to our understanding of the early evolution of several major tetrapod clades.

The Case of the Missing Green Iguana Predators: Reviews of Ecological Literature Should Go Beyond Google Scholar

The Bulletin of the Ecological Society of America, EarlyView.
Abstract Knowing about species interactions is essential for ecological research, conservation efforts, resource management, and maintaining healthy ecosystems, but many of these, such as reports of predation, may not always be published in easily located resources—if they are published at all.

The hearing capabilities of the Dromornithidae (Aves), with inferences on acoustic communication and ecology

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 248, Issue 1, Page 82-93, January 2026.
The preservation of bony structures which enclose the hearing organs (ECD) provide a basis for interpreting the hearing capabilities of the extinct, flightless Dromornithidae (Aves). Although the length of the dromornithid ECD was especially short, relative to basicranial length, it conformed to the negative allometric scaling relationships observed in

American crocodiles on jet skis: Conflict or coexistence?

Wildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 49, Issue 4, December 2025.
Federally Threatened American crocodiles have adapted to the urban landscape of southeastern Florida by taking advantage of anthropogenic basking opportunities. We suggest this behavior is key to the persistence of the species outside of protected areas.

Water, Wildlife and the World: A Global Synthesis of Trends in Wildlife Ecohydrology Research

Ecohydrology, Volume 18, Issue 7, October‐November 2025.
ABSTRACT Ecohydrology and hydroecology are interdisciplinary fields that examine the interactions between ecology and hydrology to address critical issues pertaining to both disciplines. However, the study of ‘ecology’ in ecohydrology research has largely focused on vegetation, leading to a gap in knowledge regarding direct relationships between ...
