Morphofunctional Space of the Forelimb in Caraguatypotherium munozi (Notoungulata; Mesotheriidae): Insights Into Wrist‐Powered Digging

open access: yesJournal of Morphology, Volume 286, Issue 8, August 2025.
Caraguatypotherium munozi displays a distinctive morphofunctional configuration combining high wrist flexor leverage with reduced elbow mechanical advantage—traits consistent with wrist‐dominated scratch‐digging. Multivariate analyses place it outside the core morphospaces of extant locomotor groups.

Relatedness, trait evolution, and climatic niche divergence in mammalian island endemics

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2025, Issue 8, August 2025.
Island mammals have influenced ecological and evolutionary theory since Darwin, and many of them provide textbook examples of the dramatic morphological evolution that often occurs in island communities. However, patterns of evolution in the climatic niches of island mammals have yet to be fully explored.

Network dynamics revealed from eDNA highlight seasonal variation in urban mammal communities

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 94, Issue 8, Page 1587-1602, August 2025.
Our novel study applied eDNA to track seasonal shifts in urban mammal communities, revealing changes in diversity and species interaction networks across 21 urban parks in Detroit. We highlight the influence of park size and human activity on biodiversity, demonstrating the utility of eDNA for urban conservation and wildlife management.

Statistical inference with anchored Bayesian mixture of regressions models: A case study analysis of allometric data

open access: yes, 2019
We present a case study in which we use a mixture of regressions model to improve on an ill-fitting simple linear regression model relating log brain mass to log body mass for 100 placental mammalian species.
