Complete Mitochondrial Genome of <i>Ovophis makazayazaya</i> (Viperidae, Crotalinae) and Phylogenetic Analysis. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
This study sequenced and annotated the complete 17,230 bp mitochondrial genome of Ovophis makazayazaya, which contains 13 protein‐coding genes (PCGs), 2 rRNAs, 22 tRNAs, and a D‐loop region, with a significant AT bias (57.2%). Phylogenetic analyses confirmed its placement within Crotalinae, and all PCGs showed evidence of purifying selection (Ka/Ks < 1)

Diagnosing Syndrome-Like Microangiopathic Hemolytic Anemia After Pit Viper Envenomation: Overcoming Laboratory Gaps in a Resource-Limited Setting: A Case Report From Nepal. [PDF]

Clin Case Rep
ABSTRACT Snakebite envenomation remains a significant yet often overlooked health challenge in Nepal, particularly in its rural and hilly regions. While venom‐induced consumption coagulopathy (VICC) is commonly observed with viper bites, microangiopathic hemolytic anemia (MAHA) is an extremely rare complication, especially with green pit vipers ...

How Host Phylogeny, Diet, and Habitat Affect Gut Microbial Diversity in Wild Snakes. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Gut microbiota plays critical roles in host digestion, immune regulation, neurochemical signaling, and metabolic homeostasis. Based on wild snakes (73 individuals from 23 species) from China, we explored the composition, characteristics, and functions of gut microbes across different groups using fecal metagenomic samples; further we explored the ...

Fish Buffet: Dietary Observations in the Oman Saw‐Scaled Viper (Echis omanensis), with a Review of Fish‐Eating Vipers [PDF]

Ecol Evol
We present the first records of the arid‐adapted Oman saw‐scaled vipers feeding on fish. Apon further review we identified 14 fish‐eating vipers globally. These findings suggest that fish may be more common in the diets of vipers than realized, although still rare, and likely to be region‐ or season‐specific prey.
