Mapping Intimate Partner Financial Abuse Across Public and Private Systems

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article maps the ways that intimate partner financial abuse presents, and the range of public and private entities involved in its perpetration. It reports on an analysis of submissions by individuals to the Australian parliamentary inquiry into the Financial Services Regulatory Framework in Relation to Financial Abuse.

Biology and Predatory Behavior of Metioche Vittaticollis (Stal) (Orthoptera: Gryllidae) [PDF]

, 2012
Metioche vittaticollis (Stal) is one of the generalist predator in rice field habitat. The biology and predatory behavior were studied in the laboratory. The life cycle of M. vittaticollis (Stal) averaged 40–61 days at 26°-28oC.

Functional morphology of the pharyngeal teeth of the ocean sunfish, Mola mola

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Many fish use a set of pharyngeal jaws in their throat to aid in prey capture and processing, particularly of large or complex prey. In this study—combining dissection, CT scanning, histology, and performance testing—we demonstrate a novel use of pharyngeal teeth in the ocean sunfish (Mola mola), a species for which pharyngeal jaw anatomy had ...

Trichobothrial mediation of an aquatic escape response: Directional jumps by the fishing spider, Dolomedes triton, foil frog attacks

Journal of Insect Science, 2003
Fishing spiders (Pisauridae) frequent the surfaces of ponds and streams and thereby expose themselves to predation by a variety of aquatic and semi-aquatic vertebrates. To assess the possibility that the impressive jumps of fishing spiders from the water

Comparative analysis of optional hunting behavior in Cricetinae hamsters using the data compression approach

Frontiers in Zoology
Research into the hunting behavior in members of the Cricetidae family offers an opportunity to reveal what changes in the predatory behavioral sequences occur when a rodent species shifts from an omnivorous to a predatory lifestyle.

Predatory Pricing in a Oligopolistic Framework [PDF]

, 1999
In this paper we study the nature of predatory behavior in an oligopolistic framework. We use the long-purse story of financial vulnerability to demonstrate that predatory behavior is less likely to occur in an oligopoly than in a monopoly.

Behavioral and Epileptic Determinants of Predatory Attack Behavior in the Cat [PDF]

Canadian Journal of Neurological Sciences / Journal Canadien des Sciences Neurologiques, 1975
SUMMARY:This report presents studies which relate limbic epileptic excitability to behavioral measures of defensive suppression of predatory attack in cats. Correlated with heightened defensiveness to environmental stimuli among non-killer cats is a heightened amygdaloid epileptic excitability, as well as a heightened conduction of amygdaloid epileptic

Histovariability and fossil diagenesis of Pissarrachampsa (Pseudosuchia, Notosuchia, Baurusuchidae) from the Upper Cretaceous of Southeast Brazil

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Notosuchians were key components of western Gondwanan Cretaceous ecosystems in terrestrial predator niches and exhibited remarkable taxonomic and ecological diversity. Previous research has explored their physiology, metabolism, and histology, revealing varied growth patterns and life history strategies.

The use of artificial crabs for testing predatory behavior and health in the octopus.

ALTEX, 2014
The willingness of the cephalopod mollusc Octopus vulgaris to attack a live crab is traditionally used as a method to assess the overall health and welfare of octopuses in the laboratory. This method requires placing a crab in the home tank of an animal,

T. rex cognition was T. rex‐like—A critical outlook on diverging views of the neurocognitive evolution in dinosaurs

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract A recent debate has emerged between Caspar et al. (2024) and Herculano‐Houzel (2023) on inferring extinct dinosaur cognition by estimating brain neuron counts. While thought‐provoking, the discussion largely overlooks the function of cognition, as well as partly neglects the difficulties involved in estimating neuron numbers, which according ...
