Abstract The claspers are the copulatory organs in male elasmobranchs, responsible for directing the semen into the female cloaca (C). However, the microscopic morphology of the claspers remains poorly understood. This study describes the morphology of the claspers and clasper glands (CGs) of cururu stingray (Potamotrygon wallacei) at different ...

CITES Appendix III: An underused tool for international wildlife trade regulation
Appendix III of CITES allows Parties to unilaterally extend domestic species protections to international trade, yet it remains vastly underused, covering just 1.3% of listed species. Drawing on the complete historical record since 1975, we show that Appendix III is most effective for endemic species and functions as a highly successful staging ...
