Spatial Structure Explains Morphological Variation Better Than Climatic Gradients in the South American Rattlesnake (Crotalus durissus)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
We evaluated whether climatic gradients or spatial structure better explain body size variation in the South American rattlesnake (Crotalus durissus) across its wide geographic range. After explicitly accounting for spatial autocorrelation, climatic variables were not significant predictors of body size in either sex, whereas sex‐specific spatial ...

Osteology of the Feeding Apparatus of Chilean Flamingo Phoenicopterus chilensis (Aves: Phoenicopteridae)

open access: yesJournal of Morphology, Volume 287, Issue 3, March 2026.
1. The skull features a broad, dorsoventrally flattened frontal region articulating with an elongated upper jaw that is complemented by the mandible's downward bend along its proximal half. 2. The low mechanical advantage in the mandible is attributed to the reduced and shallow insertion areas of the adductor muscles, which are positioned close to the ...

Braincase anatomy and palaeoneurology of Venetoraptor gassenae, a lagerpetid pterosauromorph from the Late Triassic of southern Brazil

open access: yesPalaeontology, Volume 69, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract There is a growing consensus that pterosaurs and the flightless Lagerpetidae are closely related. This relationship is supported by apomorphies throughout the skeleton, including endocranial character states such as a well‐developed floccular fossa and a tall anterior semicircular canal. Our knowledge of lagerpetid anatomy has been improved by

Edge effect influences the ecological strategies of plant communities in tropical forest fragments

open access: yesPlant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 2, Page 509-519, March 2026.
The edge effect in Eastern Amazonia influences ecological strategies of plant communities, with forest edges promoting traits linked to hydraulic efficiency, while interior species exhibiting diverse ecological strategies. Abstract The continuous fragmentation of tropical forests is a major threat to biodiversity and ecosystem functioning. This process

Historical Climate and Biome Association Drove Phylogeographic Patterns in the Dwarf Swamp Frog (Anura: Leptodactylidae)

open access: yesZoologica Scripta, Volume 55, Issue 2, Page 220-231, March 2026.
ABSTRACT South America, a region with high biodiversity, has been profoundly shaped by geological events during the Miocene and Pliocene, as well as by climatic changes in the Pleistocene, leading to complex phylogeographic patterns. The diverse biomes and the biotic exchanges between them, particularly between the Amazon and the Cerrado, have ...
