Micro‒Global Positioning Systems for Identifying Nightly Opportunities for Marburg Virus Spillover to Humans by Egyptian Rousette Bats

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2023
Marburg virus disease, caused by Marburg and Ravn orthomarburgviruses, emerges sporadically in sub-Saharan Africa and is often fatal in humans. The natural reservoir is the Egyptian rousette bat (ERB), which sheds virus in saliva, urine, and feces ...

From steps to home ranges: How habitat disturbance influences the movement drivers of an arboreal primate

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Challenging the narrative about howler monkeys' high resilience to anthropogenic changes, our multiscale analysis reveals the costs of habitat disturbance to their movement ecology. We identify thermal limitations, reduced travel efficiency, and significant spatial saturation.

Surveillance, Isolation, and Genetic Characterization of Bat Herpesviruses in Zambia

Viruses, 2023
Bats are of significant interest as reservoirs for various zoonotic viruses with high diversity. During the past two decades, many herpesviruses have been identified in various bats worldwide by genetic approaches, whereas there have been few reports on ...

Bridging the Late Antique Gap in Northwest Arabia: New Archaeological Evidence on the Occupation of Wādī al‐Qurā (al‐ʿUlā [AlUla], Saudi Arabia) Between the Third and Seventh Centuries CE

Arabian Archaeology and Epigraphy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In 2019, the Dadan Archaeological Project (CNRS/RCU/AFALULA) identified a Late Antique village 1 km south of ancient Dadan in the al‐ʿUlā valley (northwest Saudi Arabia). Three excavation seasons at this site (2021–2023) have uncovered a massive building constructed in the late third or early fourth cent.

Paramyxo- and Coronaviruses in Rwandan Bats

Tropical Medicine and Infectious Disease, 2019
A high diversity of corona- and paramyxoviruses have been detected in different bat species at study sites worldwide, including Africa, however no biosurveillance studies from Rwanda have been reported.

Evolutionary history and taxonomy of the genus Zea

American Journal of Botany, Volume 113, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Premise Taxonomic differentiation of teosinte species (Zea spp.), the closest relatives of maize (Z. mays) is crucial for understanding their distribution, ecology, and evolutionary history. Resolving the taxonomic uncertainties is of scientific interest and has practical implications for biodiversity management, preservation, and utilization.

Finding the larynx control area in the brain of the Egyptian fruit bat [PDF]

, 2021
Humans produce speech using their larynx muscles. Studying how the brain controls these muscles is difficult, but it is possible to observe similar brain regions in other species and use these as models for the human system.

Yellow Fever Outbreaks Are Not Associated With Long‐Term Negative Human Perceptions of Wild Primates in Brazil

American Journal of Primatology, Volume 88, Issue 10, October 2026.
Previous Yellow Fever outbreaks were not associated with long‐term negative human perceptions of non‐human primates in Brazil. Instead, education level, gender and sighting frequencies shaped perceptions of howler monkeys, while no significant predictors were identified for marmoset perceptions. ABSTRACT Human perceptions of wildlife are fundamental to

LC‐HRMS Profiling and Physicochemical Characterization of Strawberries From Agroclimatic Region in Java, Indonesia

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 10, October 2026.
Agroclimatic variation may influence strawberry sugar, acidity, and antioxidant levels. Cooler and wetter climates are associated with enhanced accumulation of bioactive compounds in strawberries. LC‐HRMS analysis reveals region‐specific metabolite fingerprints, highlighting the molecular diversity shaped by environmental conditions.

A Self‐Supervised Approach for Hainan Gibbon Call Separation in Passive Acoustic Monitoring

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
The automated analysis of PAM recordings for the critically endangered Hainan gibbon (Nomascus hainanus) remains significantly challenging due to complex ambient noise and the scarcity of clean annotated datasets. We proposed MC‐RemixIT, a self‐supervised approach tailored for complex environments, designed to effectively separate Hainan gibbon calls ...
