Genetic signature of the northward expansion of the Egyptian mongooseHerpestes ichneumon(Herpestidae) in the Iberian Peninsula [PDF]
Biological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2016 In the last three decades, the range of the Egyptian mongoose (Herpestes ichneumon) has increased in the Iberian Peninsula. A panel of microsatellites was used to confront the patterns of genetic diversity of the species with the scenario of its recent northward expansion in its Iberian range.

Journal of Zoological Systematics and Evolutionary Research, 2014 On the basis of craniometry, the last systematic revision of cusimanses recognized four species distributed from Guinea (Conakry) to the eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). Here, we (re)investigated cusimanses including new specimens collected in Benin, in eastern Cameroon (near the Dja River) and in Central African Republic (CAR) where ...

Evolutionary correlates and consequences of sociality in feliform carnivorans
Journal of Zoology, EarlyView.We take a phylogenetic comparative approach to investigate the evolutionary correlates of sociality in feliform (cat‐like) carnivores. We find that sociality evolved eight times in this group of mammals, and that it is associated with ecologies that facilitate group cohesion (e.g. diurnality and open habitats) and also that should reduce competition (e.

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 4, May 2026.ABSTRACT Metabarcoding of faecal samples is a powerful, non‐invasive approach for investigating the feeding ecology of carnivores, revealing prey diversity and unexpected dietary components with greater resolution than traditional methods. However, the approach remains technically demanding, as challenges and potential biases arise at every stage, from
