Tooth Size Variation in Pinniped Dentitions. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 It is contentious whether size variation among mammalian teeth is heterogeneous or homogeneous, whether the coefficient of variation is reliable, and whether the standard deviation of log-transformed data and the residual of standard deviation on mean ...

Is dirofilariosis an emerging conservation threat in wild carnivores across the Palearctic?
Mammal Review, Volume 54, Issue 4, Page 427-440, October 2024.Phylogenetic distribution of Dirofilaria immitis and Dirofilaria repens infection in Palearctic Carnivora species. Abstract Dirofilaria species are mosquito‐borne filarial nematodes, with a high veterinary and public health importance, but growing evidence also indicates their frequent occurrence in wildlife.

野生动物学报, 1983 食肉目包括体形和生活方式上各不相同的许多种哺乳动物,它们具有共同的起源和一系列共同的特征。食肉目（Carnivora）在系统发生上与鳍脚目（Pinnipedia）和己绝灭的肉齿目（Creo donta）关系最为密切,因此有些分类学家主张把上述三目都作为亚目,同属于食肉目,而将本讲介绍的兽类称为裂脚亚目（Fissipedia）。但是我们仍分别介绍食肉目和鳍脚目。

The gross reproductive morphology of the male Temminck's pangolin Smutsia temminckii (Smuts, 1832)
Anatomia, Histologia, Embryologia, Volume 53, Issue 4, July 2024.Abstract The Temminck's pangolin (Smutsia temminckii) is one of eight pangolin species worldwide and the only pangolin present in southern Africa. Historically, pangolins have not been able to reproduce successfully in captivity and this may be in part due to the lack of knowledge and understanding with regards to the pangolin reproductive system ...

Comparative chromosome studies in Pinnipedia
Hereditas, 2009 Cells in short-term culture from 12 species of pinnipeds were submitted to chromosome analysis, including, in 11 of them, chromosome measurements and establishment of idiograms. Analysis of variance was carried out on the measurements of 9 phocids. Comparisons between the different karyotypes were made on the basis of conventional chromosome methods as

Ecosphere, Volume 15, Issue 3, March 2024.Abstract As gastrointestinal parasites affect the health of marine mammal species, they are a potentially consequential stressor. Although they are infrequently identified as a cause of mortality, gastrointestinal parasites could drive cryptic declines in individual fitness—including declines in nutritional status—by acting synergistically with other ...
