Replace, reduce, refine: A review of animal use in Batrachochytrium salamandrivorans research

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Animal experimentation is common in wildlife disease research. Understanding the impact of this often‐lethal approach is therefore a critical line of inquiry at the intersection of animal welfare and conservation biology. The discovery of the pathogenic salamander chytrid fungus Batrachochytrium salamandrivorans (Bsal) in 2013 ignited a large ...

When aposematism is not enough: Exotic Rattus rattus shows no mercy for carcasses of Salamandra salamandra in insular populations vs. Salamandra salamandra - videos

, 2023
Predator-prey interaction is a major force driving natural selection. Yet, the effect of possible predators on aposematic species is largely unknown. Islands constitute excellent natural laboratories to investigate predator-prey coevolution due to their ...

The identity of Proteus tritonius Laurenti, 1768: comments on a really doubtful case of literary interpretation [PDF]

Herpetozoa
Proteus tritonius Laurenti, 1768 has long been regarded as the larva of Triton alpestris Laurenti, 1768. It is the type species of Ichthyosaura Sonnini & Latreille, 1801, the oldest available generic name for the Alpine newt, Triton being ...

A New Disease Caused by an Unidentified Etiological Agent Affects European Salamanders

Animals, 2022
New pathologies are causing dramatic declines and extinctions of multiple amphibian species. In 2013, in one fire salamander population of Northern Italy, we found individuals with undescribed cysts at the throat level, a malady whose existence has not ...

Outcomes With Finerenone by Baseline Treatment Goals in Type 2 Diabetes and Chronic Kidney Disease: A FIDELITY Analysis

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, Volume 28, Issue 7, Page 6022-6033, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Aims The American Diabetes Association recommends achieving treatment goals (glycated haemoglobin ≤ 53 mmol/mol [7.0%], blood pressure < 130/80 mmHg, low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol < 1.81 mmol/L and use of sodium–glucose cotransporter‐2 inhibitors or glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists), to reduce cardiovascular and kidney ...

Yellow patterns polymorphism of the fire salamander Salamandra salamandra in Poland

Acta Herpetologica, 2018
We analysed variation of dorsal yellow patterns in 2077 individuals that represented 23 populations from the northern parts of the Sudetes and the Carpathian Mountains. We distinguished four types of yellow patterns: spotted (50.1%), spotted-and-striped (

Powerful yet challenging: mechanistic niche models for predicting invasive species potential distribution under climate change

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 5, May 2026.
Risk assessments of invasive species present one of the most challenging applications of species distribution models (SDMs) due to the fundamental issues of distributional disequilibrium, niche changes, and truncation. Invasive species often occupy only a fraction of their potential environmental and geographic ranges, as their spatiotemporal dynamics ...

Metamorphosis and lncRNAs: A Close Relationship

genesis, Volume 64, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The classical definition of metamorphosis is a post‐embryonic transformation, such as from a tadpole to a froglet. However, recent studies suggest this process occurs to some degree in all vertebrates, as the underlying endocrine and molecular pathways are highly conserved. With the advent of high‐throughput sequencing, transcriptomic data for

Feuersalamander - Salamandra salamandra

, 2014
Der Feuersalamander (Salamandra salamandra) ist eine von 18 in Sachsen vorkommenden Amphibienarten. Dieser Schwanzlurch kann etwa 20 cm lang werden und ist mit seiner gelben Flecken- oder Streifenzeichnung auf schwarzem Grund unverwechselbar. Diese signalisiert seinen Feinden, dass er nicht genießbar ist, denn auf seiner Haut befinden sich Drüsen, aus ...
