Sexual Dimorphism and Body Reconstruction of a Hornless Rhinocerotid, Plesiaceratherium gracile, From the Early Miocene of the Shanwang Basin, Shandong, China

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020
We investigated the sexual dimorphism and reconstructed the body of Plesiaceratherium gracile based on the numerous new specimens from the Early Miocene Shanwang Basin, China. The sexual dimorphism of P. gracile is reflected by the size of both the lower

THE LARGE FOSSIL MAMMALS FROM FROM BUIA (ERITREA):SYSTEMATICS, BIOCHRONOLOGY AND PALEOENVIRONMENTS

open access: yesRivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2004
This paper offers a preliminary overview on the large fossil mammals (Primates, Hyaenidae, Proboscidea, Rhinocerotidae, Equidae, Hippopotamidae, Suidae, Giraffidae, and Bovidae) from the Early Pleistocene sedimentary succession of the Dandiero (Buia ...

Exploring the Potential of Using Single‐Leech Metabarcoding Sequencing for Biodiversity Monitoring in a Tropical Forest of Peninsular Thailand

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
Leech blood meals are ingenious biodiversity trackers in Thailand's rainforests. DNA analysis of these meals revealed over 30 vertebrate species, including elusive Malayan Tapirs and Clouded Leopards. Furthermore, multiple host DNAs within single leeches suggest a healthy, abundant wildlife population, making them an effective, noninvasive monitoring ...

Expanding the Faunal Interpretation of the Cova Eirós (NW Iberia) Middle Paleolithic–Early Upper Paleolithic Record With ZooMS

open access: yesInternational Journal of Osteoarchaeology, Volume 36, Issue 3, Page 576-588, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT The Cova Eirós archaeopaleontological site preserves the most comprehensive archaeostratigraphic sequence in the northwestern Iberian Peninsula, with an exceptionally rich record spanning from the Mousterian to the Upper Paleolithic. The extensive fragmentation of the faunal record and the rich taxonomic diversity at this site have limited the

A Gnawing Question: How Do Caribou and Other Arctic Mammals Exploit Shared Bone Resources?

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
Bones of dead animals are consumed by many species, yet the partitioning of this resource, and the associated ecological and evolutionary implications, remains poorly understood. Using bone modification features found on shed female caribou (Rangifer tarandus) antlers and skeletal bones lying on caribou calving grounds of the Arctic National Wildlife ...

Paleoecology, biochronology, and paleobiogeography of Eurasian Rhinocerotidae during the Early Pleistocene: The contribution of the fossil material from Dmanisi (Georgia, Southern Caucasus)

open access: yes, 2021
Rhinocerotidae represents a common element in the Eurasian Pleistocene faunas. Origin, dispersal route, and biochronology of several species are still poorly understood due to gaps in the fossil record, in particular from central Eurasia.
