Suidae, Tragulidae, Giraffidae, and Bovidae [PDF]

Geodiversitas, 2016
ABSTRACT The upper Miocene vertebrate locality of Kucukcekmece West, European Turkey, had provided an artiodactyl assemblage that is rich in species but poor in specimens. The present study allows revising previous artiodactyl lists provided for this site, by recognizing Hippopotamodon cf. antiquus, Dorcatherium maliki n. sp., Palaeotragus sp.

The Sensory Ecology of Tsetse Flies: Neuroscience Perspectives on a Disease Vector

European Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 63, Issue 2, January 2026.
Tsetse flies (Glossina sp.) are important disease vectors that feed on vertebrate blood. Host‐seeking depends on a combination of sensory systems, from long‐range senses like olfaction and vision, to shorter‐range senses such as audition, mechanosensation, thermosensation and taste.

Accommodation of Dental Variations During Jaw Growth in Ungulate Mammals

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, Volume 344, Issue 8, Page 487-504, December 2025.
Using geometric morphometrics, we compared the covariation pattern of the dentition and the palate during growth in 23 ungulate species. ABSTRACT The growth of teeth and jaw bones is intimately linked in vertebrates, especially in mammals due to their specialized dentition and limited body growth.

High Mammal Diversity and Flagship Species Persist Under Community Conservation in a Forest‐Savannah Transition Zone in Central Cameroon

African Journal of Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 8, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Community conservation areas often classified as council forests play an important role in the persistence or maintenance of diverse mammal communities. However, these areas often receive limited conservation attention and resources. The Yoko Council Forest (YCF) is among the key biodiversity hotspot areas found in Cameroon.
