Osteological, Biological, and Genetic Consequences of Colonization of Fresh Waters by Marine Cottoid Fishes (Cottidae)

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Lacustrine forms of Triglopsis from North American and European lakes are at different stages of evolution, making them a suitable model for testing hypotheses about evolutionary patterns and rates. An integrative analysis of morphological, genetic, and biological adaptations occurring in lacustrine forms of the genus Triglopsis was carried out.

Bifid rib in bioarchaeological material on the example of new cases from Poland with literature review and proposal of classification

Scientific Reports
The anomaly known as a bifid rib is difficult to quantify in bioarchaeological collections not only because of its rarity in the population itself (less than 1.5%), but also because of vulnerability to postmortem damage of this part of the skeleton as ...
