The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The ray‐finned fishes include one out of every two species of living vertebrates on Earth and have an abundant fossil record stretching 380 million years into the past. The division of systematic knowledge of ray‐finned fishes between paleontologists working on extinct animals and neontologists studying extant species has obscured the ...

Toltrazuril (Baycox® vet.) in feed can reduce Ichthyophthirius multifiliis invasion of rainbow trout (Salmonidae) [PDF]
Acta Ichthyologica et Piscatoria, 2011 Various compounds have been applied for control of Ichthyophthirius multifiliis (commonly known as Ich) which is the parasitic pathogen, responsible for the white spot disease, in freshwater aquaculture worldwide. Available methods are based on

Oikos, EarlyView.Capture–recapture (CR) models have been used for decades to estimate population size and demographic rates in natural populations from the monitoring of individuals. One of the most frequent deviations from assumptions required in CR studies is the immediate trap‐dependence that corresponds to the correlation between capture events. We review empirical

Feeding behavior of the Amazonian Water Snake Helicops hagmanni Roux, 1910 (Reptilia: Squamata: Colubridae: Hydropsini) [PDF]
Boletim do Museu Paraense Emílio Goeldi. Ciências Naturais, 2008 The genus Helicops currently comprises 15 species, of which eleven occur in the Amazon Forest. H. hagmanni feeds on fishes and has nocturnal habits, but detailed data about its diet and behavioral ecology are scarce. Here, we report a H.

Refining the Vertebrate Mitochondrial 12S rRNA Secondary Structure by Comparative Analysis
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.This flowchart outlines the comprehensive workflow of the study, integrating diverse bioinformatics tools (e.g., NCBI2GO, SSU‐align, bpRNA) and their sequential interactions. Key steps, such as data preprocessing, structural prediction, and evolutionary analysis, are depicted with their respective outputs (e.g., standardized records, consensus ...
