The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Last year, we challenged the view that large‐bodied theropod dinosaurs such as Tyrannosaurus rex resembled primates in cognition and behavior, a proposition made by Herculano‐Houzel in 2023. More recently, Jensen et al. have criticized our work on this topic, raising methodological and conceptual issues.

Gonadal development in scorpion mud‐turtles, Kinosternon scorpioides, in a controlled environment
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Stage 20 was identified as the critical point for gonadal differentiation in Kinosternon scorpioides, providing key insights into sex determination. These findings enhance conservation strategies by supporting reproductive management and population viability in both in situ and ex situ programs. Abstract Research on gonadal development including sexual

Variation in age and size at sexual maturity in Kemp’s ridley sea turtles
Endangered Species Research, 2014 Age at sexual maturity (AgeSM) is one of the most serious demographic data gaps for sea turtle populations. Better estimates of AgeSM and associated variance would improve evaluation of population dynamics and responses of populations to disturbances and

Nasal soft‐tissue anatomy of Triceratops and other horned dinosaurs
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Although ceratopsid dinosaurs possess a characteristically hypertrophied narial region, soft‐tissue anatomy associated with such a skeletal structure and their biological significance remain poorly understood. The present study provides the first comprehensive hypothesis on the soft‐tissue anatomy in the ceratopsid rostrum based on the Extant ...

Social values of biodiversity conservation for the endangered loggerhead turtle and monk seal [PDF]
, 2007 The Mediterranean monk seal (Monachus monachus) and the loggerhead turtle (Caretta caretta) are two species on the priority list for conservation in Greece due to their dwindling populations worldwide. Hence the issue of estimating willingness to pay for
