Non‐breeding social behaviour as an investment in reducing future territoriality costs

Biological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 6, Page 2726-2737, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Territoriality is costly, and animals should adopt strategies to cope with these costs. Seasonal territoriality for breeding – a common strategy in many groups of animals – can reduce costs during the non‐breeding season but requires establishing new territories every breeding season.

Comparative Phylogeography of Phrynosomatid Lizards in Baja California: Asynchronous Divergences and Expansion of Callisaurus draconoides Across the North American Deserts

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim We tested whether co‐distributed phrynosomatid lizards in the Baja California Peninsula (BCP) share synchronous phylogeographic discontinuities, as predicted by the “peninsular archipelago” hypothesis, and examined the diversification of Callisaurus draconoides throughout its range.

Reproductive Traits of Zoo‐Bred and Wild‐Bred Eastern Massasaugas (Sistrurus catenatus) at Species Survival Plan® Conservation Breeding Centres and Other Facilities

Zoo Biology, Volume 44, Issue 6, Page 572-588, November/December 2025.
Based on 94 Massasauga litters born in human care, mean litter size and number of live young per litter were higher in wild‐bred than in zoo‐bred litters. Wild‐bred litters more often contained live young than did zoo‐bred litters. In zoo‐bred litters, dam mass was positively associated with above‐average reproductive output.

The Discovery of XY Sex Chromosomes in a \u3cem\u3eBoa\u3c/em\u3e and \u3cem\u3ePython\u3c/em\u3e [PDF]

, 2017
For over 50 years, biologists have accepted that all extant snakes share the same ZW sex chromosomes derived from a common ancestor [1, 2, 3], with different species exhibiting sex chromosomes at varying stages of differentiation.
