Fish and other faunal remains from a Late Iron Age site on the Letaba River, Kruger National Park
Koedoe: African Protected Area Conservation and Science, 1991 Fish remains from Late Iron Age sites in the Transvaal are relatively scarce. It seems as if the people did not utilize the riverine resources extensively.

THE LARGE FOSSIL MAMMALS FROM FROM BUIA (ERITREA):SYSTEMATICS, BIOCHRONOLOGY AND PALEOENVIRONMENTS
Rivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2004 This paper offers a preliminary overview on the large fossil mammals (Primates, Hyaenidae, Proboscidea, Rhinocerotidae, Equidae, Hippopotamidae, Suidae, Giraffidae, and Bovidae) from the Early Pleistocene sedimentary succession of the Dandiero (Buia ...

European Journal of Entomology, 2011 The tenebrionid beetles on 25 circum-Sicilian islands were studied to determine the influence of island geographical and landscape features on three main intercorrelated biogeographical patterns: (1) species richness, studied using species-area and ...

When did the ‘Neolithic package’ reach Lepenski Vir? Radiometric and faunal evidence
Documenta Praehistorica, 2007 A recent dating program on animal bone samples from Lepenski Vir, along with faunal and various archaeometric analyses, allows us to suggest a new stratigraphic and chronological sequence for the Mesolithic-Neolithic site of Lepenski Vir in the north ...

Shark behaviour and marine faunal assemblage beneath SMART drumlines
Fisheries Research, 2021 Abstract Over the last decade, an increase in the annual rate of shark bites on people has stimulated the development of new techniques aimed at reducing their occurrence, while minimising negative impacts to marine wildlife. One such technique is the SMART (Shark-Management-Alert-in-Real-Time) drumline, which allows for the capture and relocation of

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The Pleistocene is a key period for understanding the evolutionary history and palaeobiogeography of the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus). The species was first documented in southeastern Iberia at the beginning of the Middle Pleistocene and appears to have rapidly spread throughout Southwestern Europe, where it was found in numerous ...

Macro-Fouling Faunal Assemblage in Hambantota Port
Proceedings of International Forestry and Environment Symposium, 2017 Invasive species recognized as one of the greatest threats to global biodiversity and biofouling on submerged structures within a port environments is one of the major pathways of invasions by Non Indigenous Species (NIS). Early detection and monitoring of such deleterious organisms is crucial, since control is nearly impossible once established.

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The Late Triassic–Early Jurassic fissures of the Bristol Channel area (southwest England and south Wales) are renowned for their diverse vertebrate faunas. These assemblages have yielded an array of predominantly small‐bodied forms that are crucial to our understanding of the early evolution of several major tetrapod clades.

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Differences in skull and tooth morphology, stomach contents, and estimated bite force between medium‐to‐large sized (≥100 kg) predatory theropod dinosaurs have long been suspected to correlate with differences in their diets and dietary guilds (e.g., hypercarnivory, piscivory).
