Lungfish diversity in Romer's Gap: Reaction to the end-Devonian extinction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Romer’s Gap, the interval following the end-Devonian extinction event, has been described as a post extinction trough for vertebrates. It is a time roughly equivalent to the Tournaisian stage of the early Carboniferous, and has been characterized by a ...

Database of host-pathogen and related species interactions, and their global distribution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Interactions between species, particularly where one is likely to be a pathogen of the other, as well as the geographical distribution of species, have been systematically extracted from various web-based, free-access sources, and assembled with the ...

Evolution of air‐borne vocalization: Insights from neural studies in the archeobatrachian species Bombina orientalis

open access: yesJournal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 532, Issue 3, March 2024.
After stimulation of the statoacoustic nerve (N. VIII) or of vocalization‐relevant forebrain structures of the Chinese fire‐bellied toad Bombina orientalis, we discovered increased durations of activation of motor nerve root recordings of isolated male brains in comparison to female brains. These increased durations in male brains can be interpreted as

Unravelling the mystery of endemic versus translocated populations of the endangered Australian lungfish (Neoceratodus forsteri)

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 5, March 2024.
Abstract The Australian lungfish is a primitive and endangered representative of the subclass Dipnoi. The distribution of this species is limited to south‐east Queensland, with some populations considered endemic and others possibly descending from translocations in the late nineteenth century shortly after European discovery.

Extremely low microsatellite diversity but distinct population structure in a long-lived threatened species, the Australian lungfish Neoceratodus forsteri (Dipnoi).

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
The Australian lungfish is a unique living representative of an ancient dipnoan lineage, listed as 'vulnerable' to extinction under Australia's Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999.

Dynamics of dental evolution in ornithopod dinosaurs. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Ornithopods were key herbivorous dinosaurs in Mesozoic terrestrial ecosystems, with a variety of tooth morphologies. Several clades, especially the 'duck-billed' hadrosaurids, became hugely diverse and abundant almost worldwide.

Morphology of the cornea and iris in the Australian lungfish Neoceratodus forsteri (Krefft 1870) (Dipnoi): Functional and evolutionary perspectives of transitioning from an aquatic to a terrestrial environment

open access: yesJournal of Morphology, Volume 285, Issue 1, January 2024.
The Australian lungfish, Neoceratodus forsteri, is the earliest branching species of extant lungfishes having changed little over the last 100 million years and is thought to be a key species for the fish–tetrapod transition. This ultrastructural study of the cornea reveals it is not split into dermal and scleral components and is similar to that of ...

Embryology and Evolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 1906
The proofs of evolution must be sought in the entire field of science. Direct proof is found in the study of Morphology, whose bases are comparative anatomy; embryology; in the study of paleontology, of geology, of geographical distribution, in the study
