Mid-Cretaceous amber fossils illuminate the past diversity of tropical lizards

open access: yesScience Advances, 2016
Exquisitely preserved fossil lizards from 99-million-year-old Burmese amber provide new insights into paleotropical diversity. Modern tropical forests harbor an enormous diversity of squamates, but fossilization in such environments is uncommon and ...

Effect of Nanoparticle Distribution on Photothermal Absorption in Binary Mixtures of Colloidal Supraballs

open access: yesAdvanced Photonics Research, EarlyView.
This work combines molecular dynamics and finite‐difference time‐domain computational approaches to study the photothermal properties of melanin nanoparticle–based supra‐assemblies. Based on the results of this study, the binary mixtures of melanin and silica with higher concentrations of melanin and with more segregated levels of mixing are able to ...

Effects of landscape structure and patch characteristics on the density of central populations of the eastern green lizard Lacerta viridis

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2023
A better understanding of the impact of habitat loss on population density can be achieved by evaluating effects of both parameters within remnant habitat patches and parameters of the landscape surrounding those patches. The integration of predictors at

Tuta absoluta-Specific DNA in Domestic and Synanthropic Vertebrate Insectivore Feces

open access: yesInsects, 2023
The ecology of greenhouse pests generally involves parasitoid or predatory insects. However, we investigated whether the leaf miner Tuta absoluta (Meyrick, 1917) (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae) is part of the diet of domestic and synanthropic vertebrate ...

Concepts, Belief, and Perception [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
At least in one well-motivated sense of ‘concept’, all perception involves concepts, even perception as practiced by lizards and bees.

Treecreeper Drone: Adaptive Mechanism for Passive Tree Trunk Perching

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Taking inspiration from treecreepers, a passively triggered aerial robot that can reliably perch on vertical tree trunks is presented. The friction‐based approach combines a microspine array with a tail‐like support, and then validates via dynamic analyses and flight experiments, ensuring stable performance across trunk diameters and bark textures ...

Bioimaging of sense organs and the central nervous system in extant fishes and reptiles in situ: A review

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Bioimaging of the sense organs and brain of fishes and reptiles. Left panel: 3D reconstruction of the head and brain of the deep‐sea viperfish Chauliodus sloani following diceCT. Right panel: A 3D reconstruction of a 70‐day‐old embryo head of the bearded dragon Pogona vitticeps following diceCT, showing the position of the segmented brain within the ...
