The Phylogenetic position of Daubentonia madagascariensis (Gmelin, 1788; primates, Strepsirhini) as revealed by chromosomal analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
One of the major topics in primate evolution is the phylogenetic position of the bizarre Daubentonia madagascariensis (DMA, aye-aye). The principal points that have been discussed for many decades are whether the aye-aye is: (i) the sister group of ...

Primate modularity and evolution: first anatomical network analysis of primate head and neck musculoskeletal system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Network theory is increasingly being used to study morphological modularity and integration. Anatomical network analysis (AnNA) is a framework for quantitatively characterizing the topological organization of anatomical structures and providing an ...

A perspective from the Mesozoic: Evolutionary changes of the mammalian skull and their influence on feeding efficiency and high‐frequency hearing

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The complex evolutionary history behind modern mammalian chewing performance and hearing function is a result of several changes in the entire skeletomuscular system of the skull and lower jaw. Lately, exciting multifunctional 3D analytical methods and kinematic simulations of feeding functions in both modern and fossil mammals and their ...

Caught on Camera: Insights Into Mizoram's Mammalian Diversity Through a Camera‐Trap‐Based Distance Sampling Approach

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
Mizoram's study revealed low ungulate densities and abundance, suggesting illegal hunting as a cause and entailing conservation urgency. ABSTRACT Assessing species distribution and associated threats is crucial for effective conservation. Many species including mammals face extinction due to habitat loss, hunting, and illegal trade, with their ...

Diversity of Rodentia and Scandentia Species in the Batutegi Protected Forest, Tanggamus Lampung

open access: yesJurnal Ilmiah Biologi Eksperimen dan Keanekaragaman Hayati (J-BEKH), 2022
Mamalia kecil seperti Rodentia dan Scandentia adalah salah satu satwa liar yang sering dianggap sebagai hama perusak, sehingga kurang dijaga kelestariannya. Keberadaan Rodentia dan Scandentia dalam ekosistem sangat penting antara lain sebagai sarana penyebaran biji tumbuh-tumbuhan, dan sebagai kontrol terhadap serangga.

Species-Specificity in Communication Calls of Tree Shrews (Tupaia: Scandentia) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Mammalogy, 2008
Tree shrews are small mammals living in the tropical forest of Southeast Asia. The habitus of species within the genus Tupaia is often quite similar, so that it is difficult to differentiate the species based on their morphology. We applied comparative bioacoustics, a tool successfully used to discriminate cryptic species of nocturnal mammals, to ...

Coordinated scaling of cortical and cerebellar numbers of neurons

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2010
While larger brains possess concertedly larger cerebral cortices and cerebella, the relative size of the cerebral cortex increases with brain size, but relative cerebellar size does not.
