The envenomation of general physiology throughout the last century. [PDF]
, 2017 Toxins are the poisonous products of organisms. Toxins serve vital defensive and offensive functions for those that harbor them: stinging scorpions, pesticidal plants, sanguinary snakes, fearless frogs, sliming snails, noxious newts, and smarting spiders.

Mandible composition and properties in two selected praying mantises (Insecta, Mantodea)
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Insects process their food with their cuticle‐based mouthparts. These feeding structures reflect their diversity and can, in some cases, showcase adaptations in material composition, mechanical properties, and shape to suit their specific dietary preferences.

Gonadal development in scorpion mud‐turtles, Kinosternon scorpioides, in a controlled environment
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Stage 20 was identified as the critical point for gonadal differentiation in Kinosternon scorpioides, providing key insights into sex determination. These findings enhance conservation strategies by supporting reproductive management and population viability in both in situ and ex situ programs. Abstract Research on gonadal development including sexual

Arthroscopic One‐to‐One Anchor, Double‐Row Rotator Cuff Repair
Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.Abstract Rotator cuff repair aims to achieve stable tendon‐to‐bone healing while restoring the anatomic footprint and minimizing tension. Although single‐row and double‐row constructs are widely used, double‐row repairs have showed biomechanical advantages, including broader footprint coverage, improved force distribution, and reduced gap formation ...

Autologous Palmaris Longus Tendon Augmentation for Large to Massive Rotator Cuff Tears
Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.Abstract This technical note describes an arthroscopic technique that utilizes the autologous palmaris longus (PL) tendon to augment large to massive rotator cuff tears when complete repair is not feasible. The PL tendon is harvested through a minimal wrist incision and delivered intramuscularly into the supraspinatus and/or infraspinatus using a ...

Phosphorescent Animal Forms of Arkansas [PDF]
, 1971 Two phosphorescent animal forms, Euryurus sp. and Centruroides vittatus, were collected with a black light in an attempt to collect phosphorescent spiders. Both the millipede and the scorpion were easily observed by the bright phosphorescent yellow color

A neuro‐behavioural model of neophobia
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Fear can be defined as the internal neurological state that releases a repertoire of behaviours an animal performs to reduce the effect of an aversive factor. Neophobia, the fear of novelty, is a fundamental behavioural trait observed across a wide range of species from arthropods to humans.
