ABSTRACT Three forested dispersal corridors have been proposed within the diagonal of open/dry landscapes in South America and the relative importance of each one has been the subject of debate for forest organisms. We analysed the biogeographical history of three snake genera (Bothrops, Philodryas, and Micrurus) from different families (Viperidae ...

Mesozoic marine reptile palaeobiogeography in response to drifting plates [PDF]
Mesosaurus Broom, 1913, from the Early Permian, is the first aquatic reptile known in the fossil record. Its co-occurrence in both South Africa (South Africa) and South America (Brazil, Uruguay) made it one of the key-fossils - with the ...

Omega‐3 LC‐PUFA lie at the intersection of aquaculture performance and human nutrition. Deployment of w3 LC‐PUFA rich microalgal oils derived from low trophic levels offers credible long‐term sustainable solutions, taking full account of the potential environmental footprints and benefits in terms of human nutrition and health.

ABSTRACT As the commercial development of aquaculture grows, assessing the impact of culture gear on local marine communities becomes increasingly imperative. Gear associated with off‐bottom oyster aquaculture introduces artificial structure to areas that would otherwise be devoid of structural complexity and heterogeneity.

The evaluation of the endocranial anatomy of 43 crocodylian species reveals several differences, including variation in the curvature of the encephalic endocast, the size of the endosseous labyrinth and paratympanic sinuses, and the presence of additional snout sinuses.

Burrows concentrate multiple species in confined spaces, potentially facilitating pathogen transmission. Camera traps at 105 burrow entrances in Niokolo‐Koba National Park documented 32 species generating 172 interspecific cohabitations. Potential zoonotic bacteria (Treponema, Francisella) were detected, and ticks were found in half of sampled burrows,

We analyzed multi‐tissue expression patterns in the all‐female, parthenogenetic, and triploid Brahminy blindsnake (Indotyphlops braminus) using PacBio and Illumina RNA‐seq to better understand polyploidy and asexual reproduction in vertebrates. By characterizing differential expression and co‐expression networks across the ovary, heart, liver, skin ...

Spotted Patterns of Glass Frogs Can Disguise Imperfections in Transparency to Improve Camouflage
Transparency could be considered the idealized version of camouflage, capable of producing remarkable background matching across heterogeneous microhabitats. However, although examples of highly transparent species indeed exist, transparency is often imperfect in execution, especially in terrestrial animal species.
