From landscapes to lesions: Pathology's role in wildlife mortality investigations and conservation health

Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
Wildlife mortality investigations are important toward understanding health threats to wildlife and management considerations. The who, what, why and how are critical pieces of these investigations. Wildlife pathologists play a central role in this process in elucidating causes and contributors to mortality. Abstract To effectively recognize and manage

Morphometric pattern in Caretta caretta (Linnaeus, 1758)(Cheloniidae) hatchlings from nests with different embryo development rates

Brazilian Journal of Biology
The geometric morphometric analysis of the shell of Caretta caretta hatchlings revealed that morphological variations may be related to incubation duration.

After All, Size Does Matter: Size and Trachemys Scripta Reproduction Traits at the Western Limit of Its European Distribution

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
‐ Female T. scripta exhibit a clear size‐dependent reproductive investment, where larger plastron length is positively associated with all key reproductive traits. ‐ Female T. scripta reach sexual maturity at a plastron length of approximately 15–18 cm. ABSTRACT In invasive species, reproductive success may determine invasion outcomes and influence the

A revised classification system of the marronoid clade of spiders (Araneae), based on dense sampling phylogenomics and comparative morphology

Cladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract The marronoid clade is a globally distributed, ecologically diverse group of spiders. It is an important faunal component in both natural and synanthropic environments, and even found in aquatic and extreme habitats such as desert salt flats. The systematics of the marronoid clade has been notoriously unstable due to the widespread character ...

Plastron Regeneration on Submerged Superhydrophobic Surfaces Using In Situ Gas Generation by Chemical Reaction

, 2020
Superhydrophobic surfaces submerged under water appear shiny due to total internal reflection of light from a thin layer of air (plastron) trapped in their surface texture.

Geometric Morphometric Analysis of Adult and Juvenile Turtle Shells: Directional Asymmetry and Fluctuating Asymmetry

Diversity
Bilateral symmetry is quite common in animals, but in some cases, asymmetry can be altered by hereditary or developmental processes. Symmetry may be preserved, or asymmetry may increase as the developmental stages progress.

Impact of Interprofessional Simulation on Health Students' Self‐Reported Attitudes Towards Older Adults: A Pre‐Post Questionnaire‐Based Study

European Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Aging simulation may promote the knowledge and skills of healthcare providers and students. We hypothesized that interprofessional simulation related to the care of older adults could influence healthcare students' self‐reported attitudes towards older patients. Materials and Methods Interprofessional role‐play simulations dedicated

Fine structure of the eggs of blowflies Aldrichina grahami and Chrysomya pacifica (Diptera: Calliphoridae)

Biological Research, 2004
We report here the fine structure of the eggs of blowflies Aldrichina grahami (Aldrich) and Chrysomya pacifica Kurahashi. For A. grahami, the plastron is wide and extends to almost the entire length of the eggs.
