Factors impacting the complexity of the leporid intracranial joint
Journal of Anatomy, Volume 248, Issue 1, Page 28-39, January 2026.Anatomy of the intracranial joint and the 2D semi‐landmarks used to capture complexity in the intracranial joint. (a) The intracranial joint can be seen here (in red) between the parietal and occipital dorsally and the basioccipital and basisphenoid ventrally. In hares (as in this figure) the interparietals are fused to obliteration.

Handheld photogrammetry advances capabilities to systematically characterize broken‐rock habitat
Wildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 49, Issue 4, December 2025.We developed a novel workflow using handheld photogrammetry to map and quantify fine‐scale habitat characteristics in broken‐rock patches, enabling detailed assessment of structurally complex habitats. Using structure‐from‐motion and image segmentation techniques, we generated high‐resolution digital elevation models and orthomosaics to classify cover ...

Life‐history traits and fitness of plateau pika (Ochotona curzoniae) in alpine meadow ecosystem
Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Plateau pika (Ochotona curzoniae) is an endemic mammal living in the alpine meadow ecosystem in Qinghai–Tibet Plateau. We studied life history of plateau pika by mark–recapturing method.

Effects of Future Climate Extreme Heat Events and Land Use Changes on Land Vertebrates
Global Change Biology, Volume 31, Issue 12, December 2025.Our study demonstrates how the combined effects of extreme heat events resulting from climate change and land‐use change may impact land vertebrates worldwide by 2100. Using global projections across four socioeconomic scenarios, we found that even under the best conditions, species could lose suitable habitat across 10% of their range, rising to over ...

Pliocene Forest Fragmentation Shaped Speciation in Tropical Asia's Giant Squirrels (Ratufa)
Molecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 24, December 2025.ABSTRACT Tropical Asia's complex, dynamic geological and climatic history, coupled with its diverse topography, provides a fascinating setting to study evolutionary processes driving high biodiversity. This phylogenomic research reconstructs the evolutionary history of the strictly arboreal and forest‐dependent Oriental Giant Squirrels (Ratufa) to gain

Ecology, Volume 106, Issue 11, November 2025.Abstract Hibernation is an important strategy used by many endotherms to conserve energy and water. Global warming is changing species' phenology and hibernation patterns, but whether such changes are beneficial or harmful depends on the species' life history traits, physiology, morphology, and behavior.

An evaluation of multi‐species occupancy models with correlated species occurrences
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 11, Page 2681-2693, November 2025.Abstract Multi‐species occupancy models for estimating the effects of environmental covariates on species occurrences while accounting for the effects of false‐negative errors in detection were developed more than 20 years ago. Only recently have these models been extended to include correlations in occurrence between species. Tobler et al.

Ecological and Evolutionary Predictors of Dorsal Colouration in Lagomorphs
Journal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 11, November 2025.ABSTRACT Aim To evaluate the extent to which dorsal body colouration in lagomorphs follows ecogeographical patterns, particularly Gloger's rule, by assessing the relative influence of climate, forest vertical structure, and phylogenetic relatedness on eumelanin‐ and pheomelanin‐based pigmentation. Location Global. Time Period Contemporary.
