Lizards and amphisbaenians (Reptilia, Squamata) from the middle Eocene of Mazaterón (Soria, Spain)
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract The assemblage of lizards and amphisbaenians (Reptilia, Squamata) from the middle Eocene locality of Mazaterón (Spain) is described. Considering the rather limited material available for the study, the assemblage shows a moderate diversity with eight taxa corresponding to five different families.

The elusive scleral cartilages: Comparative anatomy and development in teleosts and avians
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract The sclera of all vertebrate eyes is comprised of connective tissue, with some organisms developing cartilage within this tissue. A review of the cartilages that have been described in the vertebrate sclera and their anatomical relationships is discussed together with their potential homology.

A phylogeny and revised classification of Squamata, including 4161 species of lizards and snakes
BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2013 BackgroundThe extant squamates (>9400 known species of lizards and snakes) are one of the most diverse and conspicuous radiations of terrestrial vertebrates, but no studies have attempted to reconstruct a phylogeny for the group with large-scale taxon ...

Dictynna, 2022 This paper considers some implications of Ovid’s concept of a perpetuum carmen by examining how the ‘narrative line’ of the poem takes shape. I focus on how the Metamorphoses can be described in terms of horizontality, or verticality, or both, and use ...

Optimal Axes of Siberian Snakes for Polarized Proton Acceleration [PDF]
Phys.Rev.STAccel.Beams7:121001,2004, 2004 Accelerating polarized proton beams and storing them for many turns can lead to a loss of polarization when accelerating through energies where a spin rotation frequency is in resonance with orbit oscillation frequencies. First-order resonance effects can be avoided by installing Siberian Snakes in the ring, devices which rotate the spin by 180 degrees

A Species-Level Phylogeny of Extant Snakes with Description of a New Colubrid Subfamily and Genus
PLoS ONE, 2016 Background With over 3,500 species encompassing a diverse range of morphologies and ecologies, snakes make up 36% of squamate diversity. Despite several attempts at estimating higher-level snake relationships and numerous assessments of generic- or ...
