Fish Buffet: Dietary Observations in the Oman Saw‐Scaled Viper (Echis omanensis), with a Review of Fish‐Eating Vipers

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
We present the first records of the arid‐adapted Oman saw‐scaled vipers feeding on fish. Apon further review we identified 14 fish‐eating vipers globally. These findings suggest that fish may be more common in the diets of vipers than realized, although still rare, and likely to be region‐ or season‐specific prey.

Shared foraging behaviors between hyenas and hominins in the Middle Paleolithic Levant: New evidence from Geula Cave, Israel

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 6, Page 896-914, August 2026.
ABSTRACT While competition with large carnivores is likely to have shaped Middle Paleolithic hominins' subsistence behavior, palimpsested human and carnivore accumulations render the signal challenging to isolate. This study presents a detailed zooarchaeological and taphonomic analysis of a non‐anthropogenic faunal assemblage from a MIS 5 (~130–80 ka ...

Pulmonary development in Squamata: Insights from embryonic studies using micro‐CT

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, Volume 255, Issue 6, Page 602-615, June 2026.
Abstract Background Pulmonary development in tetrapods is a complex process, especially within squamates, where single‐chambered, transitional, and multi‐chambered lungs can be found in adult animals. While the embryological development of the respiratory system of lizards and snakes was studied in a number of species between the 1830s and 1940s, the ...
