Body Size Regulates Niche Overlap Asymmetry in the Subtropical Andes Rain Shadow: Isotopic Paleoecology of Oligocene South American Ungulates

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study provides the first isotopic analysis of Oligocene mammals from Quebrada Fiera, Mendoza, Argentina, filling a major gap in South American paleontology. It reveals a latitudinal gradient in aridity due to the Andean rain shadow and highlights the role of (semi)permanent water bodies in sustaining diverse herbivore communities. Additionally, it

Late Pleistocene mammal faunal assemblage from Cava Spagnulo (Grottaglie, Apulia, SE Italy)

Alpine and Mediterranean Quaternary, 2018
The Quaternary sedimentary succession exposed at Cava Spagnulo, nearby the town of Grottaglie (Apulia, Southern Italy), is described for the first time. A preliminary list of the mammal remains from the upper part of the succession, has been compared with other Pleistocene Apulian sites.

Updated Chorotypes of Terrestrial Vertebrates Shed New Light on Zoogeographical Regions in China

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Chorotype represents a fundamental concept for identifying groups of species that share similar distribution patterns. However, the last comprehensive revision of animal chorotypes in China was performed more than a decade ago. Here, we update the chorotype classifications for 1040 species and propose an updated zoogeographical regionalization scheme ...

Structure of faunal assemblages on rehabilitated land

, 2017
"The present study had three objectives : firstly to examine the success of rehabilitation efforts on post mining substrates by analysis of trappable small vertebrates recolonising rehabilitated areas compared to control unmined areas ; secondly to examine the relationship between small vertebrates and the availability of appropriate microclimates in ...

Introducing TropiCam‐AI: A taxonomically flexible automated classifier of Neotropical arboreal mammals and birds from camera‐trap data

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Rapid, accurate assessment of arboreal vertebrates in tropical forests remains a bottleneck for large‐scale biodiversity monitoring, due to the challenges and effort associated with traditional survey methods. To bridge this gap, arboreal camera‐trapping is emerging as a promising way to observe otherwise elusive species, opening new avenues ...

Lions as Bone Accumulators? Paleontological and Ecological Implications of a Modern Bone Assemblage from Olduvai Gorge.

PLoS ONE, 2016
Analytic models have been developed to reconstruct early hominin behaviour, especially their subsistence patterns, revealed mainly through taphonomic analyses of archaeofaunal assemblages.

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.

Abrupt transitions between macrobenthic faunal assemblages across seagrass bed margins

Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science, 2013
Abstract The nature of the transition from one contrasting macrobenthic assemblage to another across interfaces between intertidal seagrass and unvegetated sand was investigated in the subtropical Moreton Bay Marine Park, eastern Australia, via six two-dimensional core lattices.
