Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 6, June 2025.Understanding the mechanisms of speciation in the open ocean, where few obvious geographic barriers exist, is an important question in ecology. Here, we performed genome‐wide analyses of 16 Hydrophis individuals belonging to different species and found that most of the Hydrophis sea snakes have speciated around 1 million years ago nearly simultaneously.

Effect of Soil Properties on Species Richness of Fossorial Squamate Reptiles
Journal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 6, June 2025.ABSTRACT Aim Species richness varies greatly over geographic gradients. Climate and other above‐ground attributes are the most common variables used to explain animal richness patterns. However, soil properties may play an important role in shaping the richness of species living underground.

The urgent need to develop novel strategies for the diagnosis and treatment of snakebites [PDF]
, 2019 Snakebite envenoming (SBE) is a priority neglected tropical disease, which kills over one hundred thousand people per year. However, many millions of survivors also suffer through disabilities and long-term health consequences.
