A Novel Multidisciplinary Approach for Reptile Movement and Behavior Analysis

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We present a novel multidisciplinary approach capable of advancing research on reptiles’ behavior. Our approach uses integrated tools and methods for the digitization, reconstruction, and visualization of reptiles and their behavior. We (i) record movement through tri‐axial accelerometers, video cameras, and motion capture systems; (ii) ground‐truth ...

Comparative Satellitomics in Arowanas (Telostei, Osteoglossiformes) Sheds Light on the Evolution of Ancient Satellite DNAs

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This work focused on arowana fishes (Teleostei, Osteoglossiformes) as a model; their widespread intercontinental distribution and basal phylogenetic position within Teleostei make them a compelling model for evolutionary research, especially in the realm of satDNA molecular evolution. Through the integration of genomic and chromosomal data, we analyzed

An Overlooked Habitat‐Dependent Link Between Metabolism and Water Loss in Reptiles

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We measured the gas exchange of six lizard and six snake species, under high and low air humidity, and two intriguing patterns emerged. First, although desert species lose less water via evaporation than similar‐sized mesic species under similar conditions, water loss is virtually the same when each is exposed to its natural conditions.
