The division of food space among mammalian species on biomes

Ecography, Volume 2025, Issue 10, October 2025.
Understanding how species' ecological partitioning functions across biomes is fundamental to macroecology and conservation biology. Here, we examine the global distribution of dietary strategies in terrestrial mammals, focusing on how biome specialization modulates trophic diversity and structure at a broad geographical scale.

Functional morphology and biomechanics of an ontogenetic series of the Triassic cynodont Brasilodon quadrangularis and bite performance in the sister taxon of Mammaliformes

Palaeontology, Volume 68, Issue 5, September/October 2025.
Abstract The Upper Triassic Santa Maria Supersequence in Brazil has yielded numerous cynodont species, including derived probainognathians, which are relevant for understanding the cynodont–mammal transition. One of these cynodonts is Brasilodon quadrangularis, considered to be the sister taxon to Mammaliaformes due to a suite of apomorphic features in

Middle Pleistocene revelations: unravelling taphonomic processes in mammals including Mesotherium cristatum (Mesotheriidae, Notoungulata), Corralito Site, Córdoba Province, Argentina

Palaeontology, Volume 68, Issue 4, July/August 2025.
Abstract Taphonomic studies of Cenozoic mammals are scarce. We report a study of the taphonomy of the Corralito site (Middle Pleistocene to Holocene), Córdoba Province, Argentina, which documents the last population of the South American native ungulate typotherid Mesotherium cristatum. We discovered two specimens of M.

Colonias de corales y facies oncolíticas en el Dogger de las sierras de Cabra y Puente Genil (Subbético externo, provincia de Córdoba)

Estudios Geologicos, 1984
se describen por primera vez, en el Dogger del Subbético externo, colonias de corales y facies oncolíticas, Especial interés tiene, ya que estos materiales del Dogger (calizas oolíticas), se intercalan entre formaciones de carácter marcadamente pelágico.

Seismotectonics and Crustal Structure in the Southern Dominican Republic Offshore Margin: Implications on the Tsunami Potential

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 26, Issue 6, June 2025.
Abstract Many coastal areas of the southern Dominican Republic experience considerable population pressure accompanied by important economic activity. The southern offshore margin is characterized by significant seismicity and active geological processes.

Oyster shells as archives of present and past environmental variability and life history traits: A multi‐disciplinary review of sclerochronology methods and applications

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 10, Issue 2, Page 179-199, April 2025.
Abstract Oysters inhabit a variety of coastal and deep‐sea settings over a wide latitudinal range and have a role as ecosystem engineers. They also represent an important food source for humans since hunter‐gatherer times, which motivates interest in using oyster shells as environmental and life history archives.

Holocene biogeography of the southwestern European white‐toothed shrew (Crocidura iculisma, Eulipotyphla) through its fossil record

Mammal Review, Volume 55, Issue 2, April 2025.
The shrew Crocidura iculisma has a fragmented distribution limited to southwestern Europe. This study analyzes changes in its geographic distribution including palaeontological and modern data, revealing a significant reduction its range during the Holocene due to competitive exclusion by Crocidura russula and climatic changes.

A Common Terminology to Unify Research and Conservation of Coralline Algae and the Habitats They Create

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 35, Issue 3, March 2025.
ABSTRACT Linguistic uncertainty is a prime source of uncertainty pervading ecology and conservation. Coralline algae are a widespread and diverse group of calcifying red macroalgae that underpin coastal ecosystem function and service provision. Recent increasing interest in coralline algae in the scientific literature has revealed a diverse but ...
