Visual discrimination and resolution in freshwater stingrays (Potamotrygon motoro). [PDF]
J Comp Physiol A Neuroethol Sens Neural Behav Physiol, 2021 AbstractPotamotrygon motoro has been shown to use vision to orient in a laboratory setting and has been successfully trained in cognitive behavioral studies using visual stimuli. This study explores P. motoro’s visual discrimination abilities in the context of two-alternative forced-choice experiments, with a focus on shape and contrast, stimulus ...

3D Electron Microscopy Reveals the Structural Complexity of the Intravacuolar Membranous Network in Cyrilia lignieresi-Infected Erythrocytes of the Fish Synbranchus marmoratus. [PDF]
J Eukaryot MicrobiolABSTRACT This study employs advanced three‐dimensional electron microscopy techniques, including Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) tomography and freeze‐fracture imaging via scanning electron microscopy (SEM), to investigate the ultrastructural organization of Cyrilia lignieresi‐infected red blood cells (iRBCs) in the host fish Synbranchus ...

Evolution of reproductive modes in sharks and rays
Journal of Evolutionary Biology, Volume 36, Issue 11, Page 1630-1640, November 2023., 2023 The evolution of reproductive modes in sharks, rays, and chimaeras. Abstract The ecological and life history drivers of the diversification of reproductive modes in early vertebrates are not fully understood. Sharks, rays and chimaeras (group Chondrichthyes) have an unusually diverse variety of reproductive modes and are thus an ideal group to test the

Social learning in non‐grouping animals
Biological Reviews, Volume 98, Issue 4, Page 1329-1344, August 2023., 2023 ABSTRACT Social learning is widespread in the animal kingdom and is involved in behaviours from navigation and predator avoidance to mate choice and foraging. While social learning has been extensively studied in group‐living species, this article presents a literature review demonstrating that social learning is also seen in a range of non‐grouping ...

Journal of Fish Biology, Volume 103, Issue 2, Page 305-323, August 2023., 2023 Abstract The ability to visualise the internal anatomical structures of fish provides important information on their reproductive status and body condition and has made important contributions to many areas of fish biology. Obtaining information on the internal anatomy of fish has traditionally required euthanasia and dissection.

A comparison of staff presence and signage on zoo visitor behavior
Zoo Biology, Volume 42, Issue 3, Page 407-415, May/June 2023., 2023 The presence of uniformed zoo staff reduced negative behaviors by zoo visitors more effectively than signage. Abstract Many zoos favor the use of signage to encourage learning and positive visitor experiences as well as discourage negative behaviors by visitors because of its simplicity, relatively low maintenance needed, and low cost. However, current
