Don't You Know That I'm Toxic? Wild Birds Learn to Avoid a Novel Aposematic Warning Signal

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
The foraging behaviours of predators towards aposematic prey have been studied extensively and there is much empirical evidence to support this theory. Often, studies involving wild species are relatively short‐term and so there is a possibility that any aversive behaviours exhibited by predators are merely neophobic. In this study, we ensure predators

Global Assessment of Marine Reptiles and Mammals Using a Taxonomic Distinctness Tool: Implications for Their Conservation

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 11, November 2025.
This study examines the global distribution of marine reptiles and mammals, revealing contrasting biogeographic patterns shaped by their distinct evolutionary histories. Marine mammals exhibit non‐random distributions with elevated taxonomic distinctness in the Arctic and North Pacific, whereas marine reptiles show phylogenetic clustering in tropical ...

Protein profile analysis of Malaysian snake venoms by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis

open access: yesJournal of Venomous Animals and Toxins including Tropical Diseases, 2010
Snake venoms comprise a highly complex mixture of proteins, which requires for their characterization the use of versatile two-dimensional electrophoresis techniques.

Divergent Paths, Convergent Heads: Morphological Adaptation of Head Shape to Habitat Use and Diet in Snakes

open access: yesJournal of Morphology, Volume 286, Issue 11, November 2025.
Snake head shape is weakly constrained by phylogeny but strongly influenced by ecology. Significant convergence was detected in fossorial and aquatic snakes, while diet mainly drove morphological variation without convergence. ABSTRACT Morphological convergence—where distantly related species evolve similar traits in response to shared ecological ...

Peaceful coexistence between people and deadly wildlife: Why are recreational users of the ocean so rarely bitten by sea snakes?

open access: yesPeople and Nature, 2021
Research on interactions between humans and deadly snakes has focused on situations that result in high rates of snakebite; but we can also learn from cases where snakes and people coexist peacefully. For example, coastal bays near Noumea, in the Pacific

An overview of the venom apparatus in venomous snakes (Squamata, Serpentes) of the world [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Zmije su kroz svoju evoluciju razvile niz prilagodbi za savladavanje plijena. Neke su evoluirale mehanizam za trovanje različitog stupnja složenosti i time postale životinje otrovnice, ali ne i otrovne.
