The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 4, Page 989-1004, April 2026.Abstract The three mammalian auditory ossicles enhance sound transmission from the tympanic membrane to the inner ear. The anterior anchoring of the malleus is one of the key characters for functional classification of the auditory ossicles. Previous studies revealed a medial outgrowth of the mallear anterior process, the processus internus ...

Genomic Selective Constraints in Murids
PLoS Genetics, 2005 Recent work has suggested that there are many more selectively constrained, functional noncoding than coding sites in mammalian genomes. However, little is known about how selective constraint varies amongst different classes of noncoding DNA. We estimated the magnitude of selective constraint on a large dataset of mouse-rat gene orthologs and their ...

Ectoparasites of murids in peninsular Malaysia and their associated diseases [PDF]
Parasites & Vectors, 2015 Un número considerable de estudios de ectoparásitos transmitidos por ratas se han llevado a cabo desde principios de la década de 1930 en la península de Malasia (ahora conocida como Malasia peninsular). La mayoría de los estudios fueron estudios de campo y colecciones de especímenes en toda la región, y se llevaron a cabo principalmente para catalogar

Archaeology in Oceania, Volume 61, Issue 1, Page 199-220, April 2026.ABSTRACT The archaeological site Graman B4 provided one of the first records of substantial dietary change in ancient Australian Aboriginal society. Initial examination of the faunal remains from this site suggested that Late Holocene hunters reduced their focus on high‐ranked kangaroos to increasingly rely on arboreal possums; and that these ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.We documented fine‐scale denning behavior of the Bengal fox (Vulpes bengalensis) using 12.18 h of camera trap video from a peri‐urban landscape in north‐western Bangladesh. Analyses revealed strong site fidelity, crepuscular activity, and structured behavioral patterns including foraging, grooming, vigilance, and social interactions.

Adaptation in the Avian Middle Ear—The Columellar Annular Ligament in Aquatic and Diving Birds
Journal of Morphology, Volume 287, Issue 4, April 2026.The size of the columellar footplate relative to the oval window shows striking variation across species: it fits snugly within the oval window in, for example owls (left), but considerably smaller than the oval window in diving taxa such as cormorants (right).

Evolution of the Genomic Recombination Rate in Murid Rodents [PDF]
Genetics, 2011 Abstract Although very closely related species can differ in their fine-scale patterns of recombination hotspots, variation in the average genomic recombination rate among recently diverged taxa has rarely been surveyed. We measured recombination rates in eight species that collectively represent several temporal scales of divergence ...

Developmental Psychobiology, Volume 68, Issue 2, March 2026.ABSTRACT Weaning is a stressful stage in the lives of young mammals. Early weaning, in particular, can lead to long‐lasting physiological and psychological changes. We investigated the effects of precocial weaning on anxiety, social behavior, cognition, and maternal behavior in adult African four‐striped mice (Rhabdomys dilectus chakae). Mice weaned at

Body Size Evolution in Burying Beetles (Staphylinidae: Silphinae: Nicrophorus)
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.Burying beetles (genus Nicrophorus) exhibit broad, skewed variation in body size, which influences carcass use and competitive interactions. Using a large dataset of morphological and geographic data, we show that body size evolution is shaped by phylogenetic history, biogeography, and ecological interactions, with divergence especially pronounced ...
