Journal of Zoology, EarlyView.In this article, we show that ground burrows influenced reptile populations inconsistently across both the 5‐year field study in the Kiskunság and the broader systematic review, which together revealed positive, negative, and neutral effects across species and habitat types.

Phylogenetic Reconstruction of Lung Evolution in Extant Squamata
Journal of Zoology, EarlyView.The Squamata group exhibits remarkable diversity in lung structure. However, a comprehensive understanding of how this variation evolved within the clade is still lacking. To reconstruct the evolutionary history of lungs of living squamates, we conducted comparative phylogenetic analyses using categorized lung traits, such as lung type, respiratory ...

A Generalizable Tool for Predicting Developmental Phenology for Wild Ecotherms
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.Custom hatch timing models developed for four North American Lithobates frog species. Models are parameterized from Moore (1939). Panels (A, B) shows differential developmental rates under varying thermal regimes and G × E interactions. ABSTRACT Development in poikilothermic organisms is strongly temperature‐dependent, particularly during early life ...

Veterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3, August 2026.Abstract An adult, male African spurred tortoise (Centrochelys sulcata) was presented for evaluation of severe thermal burns of the plastron, approximately 5 months after an enclosure fire. On presentation, limbs were ulcerated, and the plastron was soft to touch with necrotic tissue and purulent discharge.

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.Abstract Bioinvasions are considered mostly as a biodiversity and conservation hazard, but in specific situations, introduced species can bring ecological or socioeconomic benefits. We assessed the social–ecological role of marine introduced species in the eastern Mediterranean Sea—a global hotspot of bioinvasions and extirpations—and their potential ...

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 8, August 2026.ABSTRACT Aim Conservation under the current global biodiversity crisis demands strategic prioritisation to maximise the impact of limited resources. This study aims to integrate evolutionary history, an often‐overlooked component of biodiversity, alongside extinction risk to identify priority species and regions, assessing both the feasibility and ...

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 249, Issue 2, Page 314-337, August 2026.Fossil finds from three Middle Miocene sites in Poland reveal the northernmost known presence of trionychid turtles in Europe, tentatively identified as Trionyx cf. vindobonensis, suggesting a warmer climate that supported thermophilic species in Central Europe during this period. Abstract Modern trionychids (Testudines, Cryptodira) have a pan‐tropical
