Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Background Dentitions have diversified enormously during vertebrate evolution, involving reductions, modifications, or allocations to prey seizing and processing regions. A combination of ancient and novel features related to dental and oropharyngeal apparatuses is found in extant lineages of non‐teleost fishes, such as the gars.

Pulmonary development in Squamata: Insights from embryonic studies using micro‐CT
Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Background Pulmonary development in tetrapods is a complex process, especially within squamates, where single‐chambered, transitional, and multi‐chambered lungs can be found in adult animals. While the embryological development of the respiratory system of lizards and snakes was studied in a number of species between the 1830s and 1940s, the ...

Biophysical processes of morphogenesis in lizard lungs
Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Background The lungs of squamate reptiles (lizards and snakes) are highly diverse, exhibiting single chambers, multiple chambers, transitional forms with two to three chambers, along with a suite of other anatomical features, including finger‐like epithelial projections into the body cavity known as diverticulae.

Oogenesis and germinal bed morphology of the brown anole (A. sagrei)
Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Background The brown anole is a model species of the genus Anolis, a squamate (encompassing lizards and snakes) group widely studied in evolutionary, behavioral, and developmental biology. Full genome annotation, the establishment of gene editing techniques, and comprehensive description of reproductive tract morphology and embryogenesis in ...

Toward a unified understanding of people’s aversion to nature: biophobia
Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.Human–nature relationships are often framed positively, but research rarely addresses biophobia, the aversion to nature. However, negative relationships with nature are likely to become more widespread following societal and environmental changes, with serious implications for public health and conservation efforts.

Integrative Conservation, EarlyView.This study examines the Mawphlang Sacred Forest in Meghalaya as a culturally embedded model of community‐led conservation. Drawing on qualitative fieldwork, it highlights how spiritual reverence, sacred taboos, and ancestral authority shape ecological stewardship, complementing formal governance systems.
