A Latitudinal Gradient of Reference Genomes
Molecular Ecology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Global inequality rooted in legacies of colonialism and uneven development can lead to systematic biases in scientific knowledge. In ecology and evolutionary biology, findings, funding and research effort are disproportionately concentrated at high latitudes, while biological diversity is concentrated at low latitudes.

Is cranial anatomy indicative of fossoriality? A case study of the mammaliaform Hadrocodium wui
The Anatomical Record, Volume 308, Issue 9, Page 2371-2391, September 2025.Abstract Determining the ecology of fossil species presents considerable challenges due to the often fragmentary preservation of specimens. The mammaliaform Hadrocodium wui from the Jurassic of China is known only from the cranium and mandible but may have had a fossorial lifestyle.
