ON HISTORICAL (ANTI‐)REALISM

History and Theory, Volume 65, Issue 1, Page 58-82, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The problem of historical realism has gained some new momentum recently, with a fresh challenge to what is taken to be an anti‐realist hegemony in the theory and philosophy of history. Unfortunately, this has also provided the opportunity for the reheating of old polemics and lazy scholarship that characterized the 1990s reaction to ...

New information on Late Triassic sauropodomorph dinosaurs provides support for the independent acquisition of postcranial skeletal pneumaticity in avemetatarsalian lineages

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 248, Issue 3, Page 541-578, March 2026.
PSP in early‐branching sauropodomorphs probably evolved first in the neural arches of the posterior cervical vertebrae, expanding anteriorly and posteriorly along the vertebral column. The distribution of PSP in Late Triassic early‐branching sauropodomorphs does not appear to be correlated with body size.

Braincase anatomy and palaeoneurology of Venetoraptor gassenae, a lagerpetid pterosauromorph from the Late Triassic of southern Brazil

Palaeontology, Volume 69, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract There is a growing consensus that pterosaurs and the flightless Lagerpetidae are closely related. This relationship is supported by apomorphies throughout the skeleton, including endocranial character states such as a well‐developed floccular fossa and a tall anterior semicircular canal. Our knowledge of lagerpetid anatomy has been improved by

Morphological and biomechanical adaptations of larval mandibles in Trichoptera (Insecta)

Physiological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, Page 85-114, March 2026.
Mandible morphology differs between predators and grazers: predators show pointed incisors, grazers sharp edges and setae. Mechanical properties depend on cuticle tanning, not elemental reinforcement. Functional mandible types reflect feeding strategies, with predators specialized for prey capture and grazers for scraping and collecting.
