Haematology of New Zealand’s two extant endemic bat species

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 52, Issue 5, Page 821-829, December 2025.
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.

Fostering in southern African Soricidae [PDF]

open access: yesActa Theriologica, 1993
The successful raising one young of one female Crocidura f. flavescens by another is reported. Attempts at using C. h. hirta and Myosorex varius as foster parents, and as well as at hand rearing of C. f. flavescens were unsuccessful. An attempt is made to explain the significance of this occurrence.

An Exploration of DNA Extraction Methods of Fly iDNA for Scalable Biodiversity Monitoring

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 6, November–December 2025.
Metabarcoding of invertebrate‐derived DNA (iDNA) is an excellent tool for assessing terrestrial mammal diversity, but the time and costs associated with sample processing constrain its wider adoption. Our study indicates that the non‐destructive extraction of large pools of entire fly bodies has the potential to streamline and reduce the costs of fly ...

Predator feeding choice on conspicuous and non-conspicuous carabid beetles: first results

open access: yesZooKeys, 2011
Insects use various types of behaviour, chemical defences, mimetic, aposematic or cryptic appearances as anti-predatory strategies. Among insects, carabid beetles of the genus Brachinus are distasteful prey because they discharge an irritating &ldquo ...
