Homo luzonensis and the role of homoplasy in the morphology of hominin insular species
Abstract Homo luzonensis lived during the upper Pleistocene in the northern Philippines, east of the Wallace line. The few specimens attributed to this species show a mosaic of plesiomorphies for the genus Homo and apomorphies found in upper Pleistocene Homo species.

Summary Carpal valgus deformities remain a common challenge in foals, yet their aetiology is often multifactorial and rarely attributable to a single anatomical anomaly. Recent case reports by Müller et al. (2025) suggest that rudimentary ulnas may play a causative role in these deformities, but such claims warrant closer scrutiny.

Temperature‐Driven Silicate Weathering Feedbacks Terminated the Middle Eocene Climatic Optimum
Abstract Continental hydroclimate dynamics and its responses during the Middle Eocene Climatic Optimum (MECO, ∼40 Ma) remain largely unexplored. Here, we present high‐resolution multi‐proxy records from four East Asian lake basins that demonstrate precipitation, chemical weathering, and terrestrial input underwent multi‐phase changes during the MECO ...

ABSTRACT Objectives Characterizing the diet of extant taxa is important not only to determine their ecological niche but also to serve as a reference for dietary and niche inferences in evolutionary studies. Tracking the diets of fossil taxa and their change through time has been increasingly employed to further understand the evolution of primates. In

Our dated phylogeny and biogeographic analysis of Mantophryne, a microhylid frog genus endemic to New Guinea, revealed origins in the East Papuan Composite Terrane (EPCT) in the late Pliocene. Dispersal and diversification out from the EPCT was driven by tectonic activity and climate reorganisation, creating habitat corridors and isolations in the Late
