Hepatic morphology and serum biochemical profile according to dry and rainy seasons in Pygocentrus nattereri (Characiformes: Serrasalmidae)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigated the physiological and morphological adaptations of the liver of the carnivorous fish Pygocentrus nattereri (piranha) in response to seasonal variations (dry and rainy seasons) in the Brazilian Pantanal. The objective was to describe how the liver, a central organ in metabolic regulation, responds to environmental ...

Thermal Relations of Five Species of Tropical Lizards [PDF]

open access: yesEvolution, 1961
The relation of a reptile's body temperature to that of the surrounding environment has been of considerable interest since the work of Cowles and Bogert (1944), and Bogert (1949a). These authors demonstrated that by behavioral methods reptiles were able to maintain their body temperature within a relatively narrow range. Reptiles, in other words, were

The musculature and skeleton of the pelvic fin of the crocodile shark, Pseudocarcharias kamoharai (Matsubara, 1936) (Elasmobranchii: Lamniformes): Morphology and sexual dimorphism

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
This work brings new information on the sexual characteristics of the crocodile shark (Pseudocarcharias kamoharai) exploring the pelvic fin musculature, as well as the siphon sac and the musculature and skeleton of the clasper. Our paper is the first to point out clearly the sexual dimorphism related exclusively to the pelvic fin musculature in males ...

Oldest well‐preserved euprimate petrosal, from the early Eocene of India (Vastan Lignite Mine, Gujarat)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract An exquisitely preserved, isolated partial petrosal with associated fragmentary stapes is described from the Vastan Lignite Mine (Gujarat, India), dated to the early Eocene (~54.5 Ma). Several anatomical traits (e.g., large petrosal plate; posterolateral entry of the internal carotid artery to the tympanic cavity; bony tubes surrounding the ...
