Complete mitogenome of the red squirrel Sciurus vulgaris (Sciuridae) from Korea
The mitogenome of the Korean S. vulgaris is a circular molecule of 16,511 bp, consisting of a control region and a conserved set of 37 genes containing 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNA genes and 2 rRNA genes (12S rRNA and 16S rRNA). The mitogenome

Differences in Dietary Composition and Interspecific Competition Among Large Carnivores on the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau. [PDF]
This study elucidated the mechanisms underlying regional coexistence among the snow leopard (Panthera uncia), wolf (Canis lupus), and brown bear (Ursus arctos) through the analysis of their trophic niches. The findings provide a scientific foundation for further investigation into the mechanisms that maintain carnivore communities in high‐altitude ...

Evolution of Pelage Luminance in Squirrels (Sciuridae)
Pelage luminance has been found in many mammalian systems to follow patterns predicted by Gloger’s rule where darker colored animals are associated with environments that are warmer and more moist.
