The cryptonephridial/rectal complex: an evolutionary adaptation for water and ion conservation
Biological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 2, Page 647-671, April 2025.ABSTRACT Arthropods have integrated digestive and renal systems, which function to acquire and maintain homeostatically the substances they require for survival. The cryptonephridial complex (CNC) is an evolutionary novelty in which the renal organs and gut have been dramatically reorganised. Parts of the renal or Malpighian tubules (MpTs) form a close

Stochastic Nicholson's blowflies delay differential equation with regime switching
, 2019 In this paper, we investigate the global existence of almost surely positive solution to a stochastic Nicholson's blowflies delay differential equation with regime switching, and give the estimation of the path. The results presented in this paper extend

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 41, Issue 2, April 2025.Abstract The endangered Australian sea lion (Neophoca cinerea) population is declining, and its conservation is threatened by the species' low fecundity and high pup mortality. This study details reasons for pup deaths and quantifies the impacts of disease and comorbidity. Of 284 dead pups reported from five breeding seasons (2016–2022) at the Seal Bay
