The Dynamic Proliferation of CanSINEs Mirrors the Complex Evolution of Feliforms [PDF]
Background: Repetitive short interspersed elements (SINEs) are retrotransposons ubiquitous in mammalian genomes and are highly informative markers to identify species and phylogenetic associations. Of these, SINEs unique to the order Carnivora (CanSINEs)

Capuchin monkeys (Sapajus libidinosus) at Ubajara National Park, Brazil, customarily use hammerstones to crack open at least two species of palm nuts, macaúba and babaçu. We systematically surveyed stone tool use sites in this park, recording and measuring stone tools, processed foods, and available lithic resources.

Infomap Bioregions: Interactive mapping of biogeographical regions from species distributions [PDF]
Biogeographical regions (bioregions) reveal how different sets of species are spatially grouped and therefore are important units for conservation, historical biogeography, ecology and evolution. Several methods have been developed to identify bioregions

Conservation detection dogs: A critical review of efficacy and methodology
Conservation detection dogs (CDD) can be effective and applied to possibly limitless conservation scenarios but moving forward researchers must provide more consistent and detailed methodologies so that comparisons can be conducted, results are more easily replicated and progress can be made in standardising CDD work. This review aims to summarise what

Recurrent Evolution of Melanism in South American Felids [PDF]
Morphological variation in natural populations is a genomic test bed for studying the interface between molecular evolution and population genetics, but some of the most interesting questions involve non-model organisms that lack well annotated reference

Evaluating hybrid speciation and swamping in wild carnivores with a decision‐tree approach
Abstract Hybridization is an important evolutionary force with a principal role in the origin of new species, known as hybrid speciation. However, ongoing hybridization can create hybrid swamping, in which parental genomes are completely lost. This can become a biodiversity threat if it involves species that have adapted to certain environmental ...
