The complete mitochondrial genome of Niviventer sacer (Rodentia: Muridae)
Niviventer sacer (Rodentia: Muridae) had been regarded as a subspecies of N. confucianus, i.e. N. c. sacer, and was raised as a distinct species recently by our laboratory. We sequenced the complete mitochondrial genome of N.

Control of the multimammate rat, Mastomys natalensis (A. Smith) in the irrigated fields of the Republic of Burundi [PDF]
Irrigated cultivations have been developed in Burundi with the aid of the European Fund for Development. Three major rodent species are considered pests, but one of them is far more important and can survive flooding: Mastomys natalensis, the ...

The North American fur trade fundamentally shifted baselines of furbearing mammals worldwide. Using camera traps and visual surveys, we document unexpected ecological and behavioral characteristics of a population of muskrats (Ondatra zibethicus) that was likely introduced to the Isles of Shoals (Maine/New Hampshire, USA) in the early 1900s.

Molecular Systematics of a Holarctic Rodent (Microtus: Muridae) [PDF]
The Bering Land Bridge was the intermittent connection that allowed exchange of mammals between Asia and North America. Because some mammalian genera are widely distributed on both continents, recovery of phylogenetic histories of species within these genera may help reconstruct the sequence of intercontinental exchanges.

The simple morphology of the sunfish heart
Jensen and Lauridsen describe the least curved vertebrate heart to date in seven specimens of Ocean sunfish. By comparison to multiple vertebrates, it is concluded that the highly unusual heart is a recent evolution that relates in part to the extraordinary shape of the body.

ABSTRACT Global change and urbanisation profoundly alter wildlife habitats, driving native animals into novel habitats while increasing the co‐occurrence between native and invasive species. Host‐microbiome associations are shaped by host traits and environmental features, but little is known about their plasticity in co‐occurring native and invasive ...
