Updated Chorotypes of Terrestrial Vertebrates Shed New Light on Zoogeographical Regions in China
Chorotype represents a fundamental concept for identifying groups of species that share similar distribution patterns. However, the last comprehensive revision of animal chorotypes in China was performed more than a decade ago. Here, we update the chorotype classifications for 1040 species and propose an updated zoogeographical regionalization scheme ...

Warm Spring Weather Alters Calling Phenology of Four Sympatric Early‐Breeding Anurans
An unusually warm March in 2024 (“false spring”) followed by freezing temperatures allowed us to assess the impact of a weather event on an amphibian community. The calling activity of all four species was associated with increasing temperature, and the first date of calling was advanced by 11–18 days.

Schematic representation of Cath‐Np as an antioxidant suppressing acute skin damage caused by ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation in mice. Cath‐Np inhibits the activation of p53 and mitogen‐activated protein kinase pathways while it activates the Nrf2 pathway by its strong antioxidant effects, and accordingly suppresses the expression of inflammatory factors

Using fecal DNA metabarcoding, we quantified dietary overlap among reintroduced fishers and sympatric coyotes, bobcats, and Pacific martens in Washington's North Cascades. Niche overlap was substantial for common prey but varied with body size, revealing fine‐scale resource partitioning that may limit fishers' access to energetically efficient prey ...
