Hindlimb biomechanics of Lagosuchus talampayensis (Archosauria, Dinosauriformes), with comments on skeletal morphology

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 246, Issue 6, Page 948-973, June 2025.
The study constructs a 3D whole‐body biomechanical model of the Late Triassic archosaurian reptile Lagosuchus talampayensis, which includes reconstructions of the hindlimb musculature. The process of constructing the model revealed that numerous limb bones curated with the main specimens are from other, as‐yet‐undetermined archosaurs.

Hydrological Connectivity Enhances Fish Biodiversity in Amazonian Mining Ponds: Insights From eDNA and Traditional Sampling

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 11, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Artisanal and small‐scale gold mining (ASGM) expansion in the Madre de Dios region of the Peruvian Amazon has transformed primary forests into a novel wetland complex of thousands of abandoned mining ponds. Despite their ecological relevance, post‐mining recovery of these systems remains understudied, particularly regarding fish biodiversity ...

Giant longirostrine crocodylians from the Lower Miocene of Pakistan: new material and taxonomic review

open access: yesPapers in Palaeontology, Volume 11, Issue 3, May/June 2025.
Abstract This study, based on previously undescribed crocodylian remains from the Lower Miocene of the Bugti Hills (Balochistan, Pakistan), identifies at least three distinct species. It confirms the validity of the species initially identified as ‘Gavialis’ pachyrhynchus, establishing it as the sister taxon to the massive Miocene crocodylian ...

Biodiversity on public lands: How community science can help

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 7, Issue 5, May 2025.
We investigated the contribution of community science to species inventories by cross‐referencing ∼20,000 iNaturalist “research‐grade” observations recorded during the National Park Service Centennial Bioblitz. The public identified 141 native species unrecorded in NPS species lists across 107 national park units, and >1200 introduced species ...
