The Evolutionary Implications of Hemipenial Morphology of Rattlesnake Crotalus durissus terrificus (Laurent, 1768) (Serpentes: Viperidae: Crotalinae). [PDF]
Most amniotes vertebrates have an intromittent organ to deliver semen. The reptile Sphenodon and most birds lost the ancestral penis and developed a cloaca-cloaca mating.

Spatial Structure Explains Morphological Variation Better Than Climatic Gradients in the South American Rattlesnake (<i>Crotalus durissus</i>). [PDF]
We evaluated whether climatic gradients or spatial structure better explain body size variation in the South American rattlesnake (Crotalus durissus) across its wide geographic range. After explicitly accounting for spatial autocorrelation, climatic variables were not significant predictors of body size in either sex, whereas sex‐specific spatial ...

Reference Plasma Proteome Map of Crotalus durissus terrificus
Snakebite envenoming remains a major public health concern worldwide, while the maintenance of captive snakes is essential for conservation, venom production, and biomedical research. However, little is known about the plasma proteome of snakes, a gap that limits physiological assessments and the development of species-specific reference protein ...
