Zoologica Scripta, Volume 55, Issue 5, Page 681-692, September 2026.ABSTRACT Micoureus is the most species‐rich subgenus within the genus Marmosa. Conflicting arrangements regarding the number of species comprising this subgenus have been proposed and the validity of M. budini has been debated. Here, we used an approach integrating genetic and morphological data were conducted to reanalyze the ‘rapposa’ group ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.We investigated the habitat suitability and landscape connectivity of the endangered forest musk deer (Moschus berezovskii) at its northernmost known distribution limit using multi‐scale ensemble modeling and circuit theory. Our results highlight a scale‐dependent reliance on macro‐scale steep terrain and micro‐scale thermal refugia, while revealing ...

Incongruence between genetic and morphological diversity in
BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2006 Background The past decade has seen a remarkable increase in the number of recognized mouse lemur species (genus Microcebus). As recently as 1994, only two species of mouse lemur were recognized according to the rules of zoological nomenclature.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.We investigated age‐related telomere dynamics in the tropical bat Molossus molossus using a long‐term mark‐recapture study of 492 individuals from Panama. We documented a female surviving to at least 13 years, more than doubling the previously reported maximum lifespan, while finding no consistent evidence of age‐related telomere shortening.

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, Volume 345, Issue 7, Page 749-758, August 2026.ABSTRACT Environmental pressures shape survival and life‐history dynamics partly by triggering the release of glucocorticoids, whose short‐term benefits but long‐term costs make it essential to understand what drives their levels. Here, we used an experimental manipulation of two environmental stressors—food availability and parasite burden—to directly

Zoologia (Curitiba), 2011 Myotis albescens (É. Geoffroy, 1806) occurs from Mexico to Uruguay and Argentina. Despite a large number of specimens in collections, its variability in South America has been underestimated, potentially leading to errors in identification.

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 8, August 2026.Phenotypic variation in functional traits underpins responses to environmental gradients, influencing thermoregulation, energy balance, and long‐term persistence under climate extremes. Climate change is altering these gradients globally, yet in species that have already disappeared from much of their range, adaptive phenotypes may have also been lost,

Camera angle and photographic identification of individual striped skunks
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2017 We tested whether striped skunks (Mephitis mephitis) in Flagstaff, Arizona, USA, could be recognized based on variation in pelage patterns and whether camera position influenced that outcome. We presented 11 volunteers with 2 sets of 24 photographs taken

Automatic individual identification of Saimaa ringed seals
IET Computer Vision, 2018 In order to monitor an animal population and to track individual animals in a non‐invasive way, identification of individual animals based on certain distinctive characteristics is necessary. In this study, automatic image‐based individual identification
