Culturing novel anaerobic gut fungi from marsupials

open access: yes, 2022
Anaerobic gut fungi (AGF) from the phylum Neocallimastigomycota are an essential part of the microbiome in herbivores. These fungi aid in digestion in ruminants, pseudoruminants, and nonruminants alike, where they adhere to plant biomass and produce ...

Digging into dirt: Rewilding with threatened mammals shapes soil‐emerging insect assemblages

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 7, Page 1207-1219, July 2026.
By comparing insect communities across treatments at two time points, we show that reintroduced digging mammals shape soil‐emerging insect assemblages. This provides empirical evidence that restoring ecosystem engineers may drive broader community‐level change in semi‐arid ecosystems. Abstract Digging mammals function as ecosystem engineers by altering

Creation of an MRI‐Based Three‐Dimensional Common Wombat (Vombatus ursinus) Brain Atlas and Linking Brain Morphometry to Wombat Behaviour

open access: yesAnatomia, Histologia, Embryologia, Volume 55, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Marsupials lack a corpus callosum; in its place Diprodontia have a fasciculus aberrans connecting the hemispheres. However, despite this uniqueness, the realm of marsupial brain anatomy remains largely unexplored, especially through the lens of modern imaging techniques.

The raphe nuclear organization and serotonergic system in the bat (Artibeus planirostris)

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 249, Issue 1, Page 207-221, July 2026.
Schematic representation of the methodological workflow used to characterize the serotonergic (5‐HT) system in the bat Artibeus planirostris. Serotonin (5‐HT) immunohistochemistry was performed on brainstem sections to identify and map the distribution of serotonergic neurons within the raphe nuclei.

Timing of Reproduction in Carnivorous Marsupials

open access: yes, 2013
Reproduction in many carnivorous marsupials is seasonal; however the proximal cues for reproduction are known for a minority of species. Species from the genera 'Antechinus and Sminthopsis' appear to rely on photoperiodic change for timing of ...

Fundamental Differences in the Structure and Development of Marsupials and Placentals

open access: yes, 1975
The paper deals with four main groups of distinctions between marsupials and placentals: 1) absence of tertiary egg membranes; 2) sharp differences in the structure of the female urogenital organs in the placentals and marsupials; 3) absence of placental
