The tendency to see humans as special and separate influences even practices like scientific taxonomy which explicitly place them among other animals.

An Exploration of DNA Extraction Methods of Fly iDNA for Scalable Biodiversity Monitoring
Metabarcoding of invertebrate‐derived DNA (iDNA) is an excellent tool for assessing terrestrial mammal diversity, but the time and costs associated with sample processing constrain its wider adoption. Our study indicates that the non‐destructive extraction of large pools of entire fly bodies has the potential to streamline and reduce the costs of fly ...

ABSTRACT Aim Shark Bay, a UNESCO World Heritage site in Western Australia, is highly vulnerable to climate change, yet its fish biodiversity remains poorly understood at fine spatial scales. We integrated environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding with high‐resolution remote sensing to assess and extrapolate fish diversity patterns, providing a scalable ...

Evolucija hominida (por. Hominidae) [PDF]
Evolution of hominids covers the period of the last 60 million years and it refers on the developement of apes and humans. The process of evolution has in a way been conditioned by the changes that arrose during time, and they included tectonic movements of the Earths crust, ocean draining and climate change – all of which made severe impact on the ...

Abstract Diet is one of a limited set of key ecological parameters defining primate species. A detailed understanding of dental functional correlates with primate diet is a key component for accurate dietary inference in fossil primates. Although considerable effort has been devoted to understanding post‐canine dental function, incisor function remains

Die Evolution des Menschen [PDF]
Wir haben irgendwie einen gemeinsamen Ausgangspunkt mit Nichthominiden, mit "Nichtmenschen", das sind Menschenaffen. Nun ist die Frage: Wie sah dieser Ausgangspunkt aus?

Evidence of strong stabilizing effects on the evolution of boreoeutherian (Mammalia) dental proportions. [PDF]
The dentition is an extremely important organ in mammals with variation in timing and sequence of eruption, crown morphology, and tooth size enabling a range of behavioral, dietary, and functional adaptations across the class.

The effect of foot posture on capacity to apply free moments to the ground: implications for fighting performance in great apes [PDF]
In contrast to most other primates, great apes have feet in which the heel supports body weight during standing, walking and running. One possible advantage of this plantigrade foot posture is that it may enhance fighting performance by increasing the ...

To appreciate the genetic diversity and zoonotic implications of Enterocytozoon bieneusi in nonhuman primates (NHPs) in zoos, we genotyped E. bieneusi in captive NHPs in seven zoos located at six major cities in China, using ribosomal internal ...
