An Updated Checklist of Terrestrial Mammals of Hainan Island, China

open access: yesBiological Diversity, Volume 3, Issue 3, Page 180-189, September 2026.
Building upon the foundational work Birds and Mammals of Hainan Island (1983), and synthesizing verified species records accumulated over the past four decades under a modern taxonomic framework, we present an updated checklist documenting 95 species of terrestrial mammals on Hainan Island.

Faster speciation and reduced extinction in the tropics contribute to the Mammalian latitudinal diversity gradient.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2014
The increase in species richness from the poles to the tropics, referred to as the latitudinal diversity gradient, is one of the most ubiquitous biodiversity patterns in the natural world.

Effects of off‐highway vehicle activity on Arizona wildlife: a systematic literature review

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 7, September 2026.
The published literature indicates that off‐highway vehicles (OHVs) predominantly negatively affect native Arizona amphibians, mammals, and reptiles, while effects of OHVs on native Arizona birds are mostly unknown or neutral. Abstract Off‐highway vehicle (OHV) recreation has dramatically increased in Arizona, USA, prompting concerns about potential ...

The sequence and characterization of mitochondrial of Lepus oiostolus (Lagomorpha: Leporidae)

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020
Lepus oiostolus is widely inhabited in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. So far, little mitochondrial genome information of this genus has been described. To grasp a better comprehension on the molecular basis of L.

Continuous field assessments and data sharing to rationalize the IUCN's impact in mammal conservation: a case study of Rwanda

open access: yesWildlife Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 5, September 2026.
Taxonomic work, conservation practice, and Red List assessments from the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) are intricately linked. The primary conservation goal for biodiversity is to halt the factors driving local extinctions of species.

Species Determination Within the Felidae Family Using mtDNA Minibarcoding

open access: yesAnimal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Wildlife forensic analysis frequently deals with highly degraded DNA samples, including those from tanned hides, processed products of traditional Chinese medicine, and specimens stored in preservation fluids. These samples present significant challenges for traditional DNA barcoding due to the difficulty of amplifying sufficiently long DNA ...

Demographic buffering in natural populations: A multi‐level perspective

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 8, Page 1298-1310, August 2026.
We introduce a multi‐level framework that unites stochastic elasticities with nonlinear selection to test demographic buffering. Applying it across mammals reveals a key insight: ecological robustness to variability often decouples from evolutionary constraint, reshaping how we understand resilience under environmental stochasticity.
