Soricidae (Mammalia, Insectivora) remains from three Late Miocene localities in western Hungary [PDF]
The Soricidae fauna of Sümeg, Csákvár and Széchenyi Hill (Hungary) is presented. The following taxa were identified in the fauna: Dinosorex sp., Amblycoptus oligodon KORMOS1926, Crusafontina endernica GIBERT1974, Crusafontina vicina (KRETZOJ,1954 ...

ABSTRACT Kalavan‐2, a high‐altitude (∼1640 m a.s.l.) open‐air site in Armenia, preserves stratified Middle Paleolithic occupations with a rich small‐vertebrate record. Luminescence dating has placed site formation between ~60 and 45 ka, but without independent chronological control of the microvertebrate accumulation.

The accelerating influence of humans on mammalian macroecological patterns over the late Quaternary [PDF]
The transition of hominins to a largely meat-based diet ~1.8 million years ago led to the exploitation of other mammals for food and resources. As hominins, particularly archaic and modern humans, became increasingly abundant and dispersed across the ...

Copious questions in global change biology require estimates of climatic suitability for species in the past or future, often via transfers of ecological niche models (ENMs) using outputs from global circulation models (GCMs). However, available GCMs differ markedly, affecting hindcasts and forecasts of species potential distributions. We propose using

Evolutionary history of the Nesophontidae, the last unplaced Recent mammal family [PDF]
The mammalian evolutionary tree has lost several major clades through recent human-caused extinctions. This process of historical biodiversity loss has particularly affected tropical island regions such as the Caribbean, an area of great evolutionary ...

Haematology of New Zealand’s two extant endemic bat species
ABSTRACT This study investigated haematological values for New Zealand’s two extant endemic bats, the long‐tailed bat (Chalinolobus tuberculatus) and the lesser short‐tailed bat (Mystacina tuberculata), to determine whether differences in locomotion and ecology between these species might be reflected in the species’ haematology.
