43 genes support the lungfish-coelacanth grouping related to the closest living relative of tetrapods with the Bayesian method under the coalescence model

open access: yesBMC Research Notes, 2011
Background Since the discovery of the "living fossil" in 1938, the coelacanth (Latimeria chalumnae) has generally been considered to be the closest living relative of the land vertebrates, and this is still the prevailing opinion in most general biology ...

Mandibular musculature constrains brain–endocast disparity between sarcopterygians

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2020
The transition from water to land by the earliest tetrapods in the Devonian Period is seen as one of the greatest steps in evolution. However, little is understood concerning changes in brain morphology over this transition.

Aestivation induces widespread transcriptional changes in the African lungfish

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2023
Aestivation is a special ability possessed by some animals to cope with hot and dry environments utilizing dormancy. At a macroscopic level, dormant animals stop moving and eating.

Heart and Circulation of the African Lungfish [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation Research, 1969
Cardiovascular structure and function were studied in the African lungfish, Protopterus aethiopicus , by a combination of anatomical and physiological techniques. Particular emphasis was placed on mechanisms which operate under natural conditions in which air-breathing alternates with water-breathing.

The cranial endocast of Dipnorhynchus sussmilchi (Sarcopterygii: Dipnoi) and the interrelationships of stem-group lungfishes [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2016
The first virtual cranial endocast of a lungfish from the Early Devonian, Dipnorhynchus sussmilchi, is described. Dipnorhynchus, only the fourth Devonian lungfish for which a near complete cranial endocast is known, is a key taxon for clarifying ...

A diverse Late Cretaceous vertebrate tracksite from the Winton Formation of Queensland, Australia [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2021
The Upper Cretaceous ‘upper’ Winton Formation of Queensland, Australia is world famous for hosting Dinosaur Stampede National Monument at Lark Quarry Conservation Park, a somewhat controversial tracksite that preserves thousands of tridactyl dinosaur ...

Quality and contribution of food sources to Australian lungfish evaluated using fatty acids and stable isotopes

open access: yes, 2020
The Australian lungfish, Neoceratodus forsteri Krefft, 1870, is a threatened species whose long-term persistence is at risk due to land-use intensification, water resource development, and other human pressures. Changes to the hydrology of rivers has the

Leucism in South American Lungfishes Lepidosiren paradoxa Fitzinger, 1837 (Osteichthyes, Dipnoi, Lepidosirenidae) from Argentina

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Veterinary Pathology, 2020
The present study reports a case of leucism in South American Lungfish Lepidosiren paradoxa captured in Corrientes, Argentina. It was observed a change in cutaneous pigmentation, and it was concluded that it was leucism and not albinism, since there was ...
