Abstract Domesticated European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) have long been chosen as laboratory model organisms. Despite this, there has been no definitive study of the vertebral musculature of wild rabbits. Relevant descriptions of well‐studied veterinary model mammals (such as dogs) are generally applicable, but not appropriate for a species ...

Habitat Preferences at the Leading Edge of a Marine Bioinvasion
ABSTRACT To enable the early detection and eradication of invasive species, it is crucial to predict habitats with an elevated risk of invasion. Despite the fact that invaders may display initial habitat preferences and niche shifts during range expansion, studies identifying habitat associations at invasion ...

Abstract Analysis of the variation in the bony structures of the inner and middle ear provides critical insights into functional morphology, as well as adaptive morphology across primates. In this study, we investigated whether ear morphology patterns are related to the ecological characteristics of species and their habitats to test two acoustic ...

The selective utilisation of Rhizophora mangle habitat by juvenile reef fish [PDF]
Recognised as 'Essential Fish Habitat', red mangrove (Rhizophora mangle) has received much attention in recent years to assess its nursery function. Research suggests that mangrove habitat contributes significantly to coral reef fish populations. Not all

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 ...

Diversity and habitat preference of brachyuran crabs in Gulf of Kutch, Gujarat, India [PDF]
The biodiversity of Gulf of Kutch is studied well with special reference to scleretinia and mollusca but the brachyuran crab taxa are rather neglected. Gulf of Kutch is very rich in floral and faunal diversity and comprises different types of communities
