Potential drivers of samango monkey (Cercopithecus albogularis) population subdivision in a highly fragmented mountain landscape in northern South Africa
Forests affected by fragmentation are at risk of losing their primate populations over the long term. The impact of fragmentation on primate...

Post-delisting genetic monitoring reveals population subdivision along river and reservoir localities of the endemic Concho water snake (Nerodia harteri paucimaculata)
The Concho water snake ( Nerodia harteri paucimaculata ), endemic to the Colorado and Concho Rivers in Texas, was removed from the U.S. Endangered...

Bioregionalization of Albania: Mismatch between the flora and the climate suggests that our models of Southern European bioregions are in need of a revision
We analysed the floristic subdivisions of Albania by hierarchical clustering of all the vascular plant species of Albania over a grid of 25 km cells,...

Epidemiology of Tinea Capitis Among School-Children in Dschang, Western Cameroon
Data on the epidemiology of tinea capitis (TC), an infection of the scalp by dermatophytes, are scarce in Cameroon. This study aimed to determine the...

Proposal for a subdivision of the family Psathyrellaceae based on a taxon-rich phylogenetic analysis with iterative multigene guide tree
The family Psathyrellaceae was analysed using phylogenetic and morphological characters. A total of 18,133 sequences (ITS, 5.8S, LSU, ef-1α , β-tubulin ...

A first species-wide phylogenetic analysis of small mammals from Costa Rica using mitochondrial cytochrome b
Costa Rica is within the Mesoamerican biodiversity hotspot and has about 53 native species of small mammals. This high diversity, along with recent...

Habitat disturbance may form subpopulation genetic structure in an invasive rodent species (Myocastor coypus) within a Japanese river system
Alien species management can be improved by understanding the population genetic structure of alien species that affect native ecosystems. In this...

Stratifying the urban matrix using zoning laws: a protocol for bats and their pathogens
Urbanization implies important ecological changes in bat communities and in their intra and interspecific pathogen transmission. However, little is...

Phylogeography and demographic history of the subterranean rodents belonging to the Ctenomys talarum phylogenetic group (Rodentia: Ctenomyidae)
The genus Ctenomys is the most speciose of all known subterranean rodents. Currently, most species of this genus are included in eight distinctive...
