The complete mitochondrial genome of De Brazza’s monkey (Cercopithecus neglectus)
The complete mitochondrial genome of Cercopithecus neglectus was described. The mitogenome is 16,490 bp in length and consists 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer-RNA genes, two ribosomal-RNA genes, and one non-coding region. All the 13 PCGs were

Performance of weak species in the simplest generalization of the rock-paper-scissors model to four species [PDF]
We investigate the problem of the predominance and survival of "weak" species in the context of the simplest generalization of the spatial stochastic rock-paper-scissors model to four species by considering models in which one, two, or three species have a reduced predation probability.

Spatio-temporal analysis identifies marine mammal stranding hotspots along the Indian coastline
Marine mammal strandings provide vital information on species’ life histories, population health and status of marine ecosystems. Opportunistic reporting of strandings also serve as a powerful low-cost tool for monitoring these elusive mammals.

High throughput ANI analysis of 90K prokaryotic genomes reveals clear species boundaries
A fundamental question in microbiology is whether there is continuum of genetic diversity among genomes, or clear species boundaries prevail instead. Whole-genome similarity metrics such as Average Nucleotide Identity (ANI) help address this question by ...

Cypripedium guttatum is a highly restricted terrestrial orchid that faces increasing endangerment owing to its habitat destruction and illegal collection. Compared to epiphytic orchids, terrestrial orchids such as C.

Genome sequence-based species delimitation with confidence intervals and improved distance functions
For the last 25 years species delimitation in prokaryotes (Archaea and Bacteria) was to a large extent based on DNA-DNA hybridization (DDH), a tedious lab procedure designed in the early 1970s that served its purpose astonishingly well in the absence of ...

Effectiveness of non-lethal predator deterrents to reduce livestock losses to leopard attacks within a multiple-use landscape of the Himalayan region [PDF]
Lethal measures are widely adopted by local communities and governments to manage human-wildlife conflicts. Such measures lead to large scale decline of carnivore populations globally with trophic cascades on ecosystems and questionable impacts on human ...

At the point of this writing, species of homo is, in modern science, limited to past and current inhabitants of planet Earth. However, my earlier work shows that planets are also living beings and may be categorized into species. The same species of homo would, by this hypothesis, inhabit the same species of planets.
