Abstract Network visualization has traditionally relied on heuristic metrics, such as stress, under the assumption that optimizing them leads to aesthetic and informative layouts. However, no single metric consistently produces the most effective results.

Sheep and cattle grazing significantly shape ant and ground beetle species composition in Mediterranean cork oak woodlands, promoting higher diversity by increasing habitat heterogeneity. Ground beetles and ants reflect changes in grazing regimes, with sheep‐grazed areas showing the highest diversity, highlighting their utility in ecosystem monitoring.

Abstract Giant featherback (Chitala lopis) is an ancient species of freshwater fish considered globally extinct until extant populations were re‐discovered in the Sundaland region of Indonesia in 2022. To improve management of the remaining populations, this study used genomic DNA and landmark‐based geometric morphometric analyses of fish scales to ...

Here, we present the most complete dataset to date on the endosseous labyrinths of extant crocodylians. Using 3D geometric morphometrics, we show that allometry constitutes a major contributor of the shape variation of the crocodylian endosseous labyrinths and that the development of this structure is likely linked to the braincase conformation, in all

Does ulnar curvature covary with locomotion and substrate use in cercopithecids?
This study investigates ulnar curvature in cercopithecids in relation to locomotor behaviors, introducing an analysis of anteroposterior and mediolateral curvature, using geometric morphometric on 167 specimens (23 species). Although the two curvatures distinguish arboreal and terrestrial quadrupeds, their moderate covariation suggests that they ...

Functional morphology of trabecular bone in the calcaneus of African apes
Pan exhibits significantly higher calcaneal tuberosity trabecular thickness (Tb.Th) and bone volume fraction (BV/TV) than Gorilla, potentially reflecting higher triceps surae forces for vertical climbing. Both taxa have significantly higher Tb.Th and BV/TV in the anterior calcaneus; the difference is exaggerated in Gorilla, potentially reflecting ...

The variability of giraffe skull morphology
What does giraffe skull shape tell us about their development and evolution? Abstract Giraffe (Giraffa spp.) are among the most unique and charismatic extant animals, largely due to their distinct morphology. The evolutionary and developmental origin of ossicones is a key factor in giraffid biology, yet other features building their characteristic head
