Comparison of Three Sympatric Desert Lizards: Digestive Tract Structure, Digestive Enzyme Activities, Gut Microbiota, and Metabolites

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We performed 16S rDNA sequencing and metabolite profiling for three sympatric lizard species—Teratoscincus roborowskii, Phrynocephalus axillaris, and Eremias roborowskii—and compared their goblet cell and enzyme activities in the digestive tract. Our study suggests that the dietary niche may promote divergence or convergence of microbiota across host ...

A Wildlife Multi‐Modal Recognition Method Based on Infrared Camera Images Using MWAC

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
A multimodal wild wildlife classification model MWAC consists of two parts:(1) Wavelet KAN module (WDS‐KAN) for image feature extraction, and (2) Label Correlated Text Extraction module (LC‐BERT) for text feature extraction. ABSTRACT Nowadays, infrared camera technology has become an important tool for large‐scale monitoring and assessment of wildlife ...

Future of edge AI in biodiversity monitoring

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Many ecological decisions are slowed by the gap between collecting and analysing biodiversity information. Edge computing moves data processing closer to the sensor, with edge artificial intelligence (AI) using AI models for data processing and selective data transfer.

Tracing Identity in a Fragmented Past: Multi‐Proxy Analysis of Human Skeletal Remains From Dungowan Creek, New South Wales, Australia

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human skeletal remains constitute critical archaeological evidence for reconstructing past societies, yet their investigation requires careful ethical, cultural, and legislative consideration. This paper reports on the discovery, recovery and analysis of a set of skeletal remains encountered during a cultural heritage management (CHM ...

Computed tomography reveals the endocranial anatomy of Crocodylia: Implications for phylogenetic relationships and ecomorphological convergence across Crocodylomorpha

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The evaluation of the endocranial anatomy of 43 crocodylian species reveals several differences, including variation in the curvature of the encephalic endocast, the size of the endosseous labyrinth and paratympanic sinuses, and the presence of additional snout sinuses.

A Hidden Dimension of Caribbean Reptile Ecology: First Documentation on Nesting Behavior in a Pholidoscelis Species

Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 6, November 2026.
Our first assessment of Pholidoscelis erythrocephalus nesting behavior indicates this species creates complex communal nesting sites. Considering the novelty of our nesting data for a Pholidoscelis species, this new knowledge aids our understanding of the reproductive ecology, biodemographics, and conservation of this widely distributed genus ...
