A histological survey of troodontid metatarsals from the Dinosaur Park Formation (DPF) was conducted, revealing correlates for stresses in the troodontid arctometatarsus and providing the first histological assessment of pathologies for this taxon.

The evolution of an “owl‐like” auditory system in harriers: Anatomical evidence
Harriers hunt relying on sound, with an accuracy to localize sound sources comparable with owls. To assess whether they have owl‐like auditory specializations, we analyzed brain and skull structures using histology and microCT scans. Harriers possess an enlarged external acoustic meatus and significantly expanded auditory brainstem nuclei, up to 12 ...

Intraspecific variation and detectability of iridescence in the dorsal coloration of a wall lizard
Wall lizards (genus Podarcis) show substantial intraspecific colour variation and iridescence, which may interact and affect overall colour appearance. Here, we set out to study iridescence in Podarcis liolepis in two localities in which lizards are known to differ in dorsal coloration. Our results show that P.

The Common or Bird Louse Fly Ornithomya avicularia, a vector of Haemoproteus sp. and trypanosomes, has undergone a major northwards range expansion in the United Kingdom since the 1960s. The Finch Louse Fly Ornithomya fringillina has also expanded its range northwards and westwards, and the Swallow Louse Fly Ornithomya biloba is now established in ...

Life at new extremes: Integrating stress physiology and the bio‐exposome in the Anthropocene
We propose to expand the concept of extreme environments to encompass those that are profoundly altered by climate and global changes, highlight the critical role of stress resilience in understanding how the exposome interacts with intracellular processes (bio‐exposome) in wildlife, emphasize how such interactions are relevant to the human bio ...

Abstract An approximately 26‐year‐old, suspected female, red‐tailed hawk (Buteo jamaicensis) was presented with a history of chronic ocular changes of the left eye likely secondary to blunt trauma resulting in blindness and phthisis bulbi. Ophthalmic evaluation of OS revealed a large intraocular mass, 3+ aqueous flare indicating anterior uveitis, and ...

NaVβ3 expression is increased by laminar shear stress (LSS) through KLF4 induction (1). NaVβ3 is retained within the cell and interacts with mTOR protein and colocalizes partially with LAMP1 and LC3B, lysosome and autophagosome markers, respectively (2). Since SiRNA SCN3B induces the decrease of LC3B expression and cell alignment in response to LSS (3),
