What Are the Phylogenetic Limits to Pollinator Diversity?
Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 149, Issue 5, Page 697-703, June 2025.ABSTRACT Although huge progress has been made over the past 200 years in identifying the diversity of pollinators of angiosperms and other plants, new discoveries continue to be made each year, especially in tropical areas and in the fossil record. In this perspective article I address the following questions: Just how diverse are the pollinators and ...

Functional evolution of the feeding system in rodents [PDF]
, 2012 The masticatory musculature of rodents has evolved to enable both gnawing at the incisors and chewing at the molars. In particular, the masseter muscle is highly specialised, having extended anteriorly to originate from the rostrum.

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 246, Issue 5, Page 685-695, May 2025.Bats are unique among mammals for evolving powered flight. However, very little data are available on the muscle properties and architecture of bat flight muscles. Using diceCT and gross dissection, we show that the Egyptian fruit bat pectoralis is optimised for power, and the elbow flexion/extension group is optimised for high forces with large PCSA ...

Semicircular canal morphology in Rodentia and its relationship to locomotion
Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.Here, we present a selection of rodent inner ear 3D models in the lateral view, with rodents from seven locomotor categories (left to right: fossorial, semifossorial, semiaquatic, terrestrial, ricochetal, arboreal, and gliding). Semicircular canal (SCC) morphology, including radius of curvature and shape, can be differentiated between specialized forms

Prolactin is a strong candidate for the regulation of luteal steroidogenesis in vizcachas (Lagostomus maximus) [PDF]
, 2018 Prolactin (PRL) is essential for the maintenance of the corpora lutea and the production of progesterone (P4) during gestation of mice and rats, which makes it a key factor for their successful reproduction.
