We describe two new cryptic species of Bufo within the subgenus Anaxyrus discovered in Central Nevada of the western United States. Our analyses revea......
Information about the life history of larval fishes can be sparse, especially at the edges of typical geographic ranges and among fishes for which the......
Riverine fishes are sensitive to human-induced changes to their ecosystems and have experienced substantial declines in the past century. The presence......
In southern Florida, Gopher Tortoises (Gopherus polyphemus) occupy mesic flatwoods and Florida scrub communities where habitat and climatic conditions......
While organisms are typically considered permanent residents of a community, many transient organisms occupy a community for only brief periods. Despi......
Given the conservation status and ecological, cultural, and commercial importance of chondrichthyan fishes, it is valuable to evaluate the extent to w......
Nongenetic inheritance-involving epigenetic, behavioral, or environmental factors-is increasingly viewed as being important in development and evoluti......
The structure and functioning of freshwater turtle communities remain understudied topics, especially in tropical regions where biodiversity is higher......
The new species, Cirrhilabrus briangreenel, is described on the basis of the holotype and six paratypes collected from mesophotic coral ecosystems of ......
Including early life history data in assessments can improve fisheries management by increasing our knowledge of stock structure, spawning habitat, an......
Accurate, comprehensive data on life expectancy, growth rates, age structure, and sexual maturation are necessary to inform decision-making for conser......
The inshore Tropical Eastern Pacific (TEP) comprises two major biogeographic provinces, the Cortez Province and Panamic Province, which are distinguis......
Target enrichment of conserved nuclear loci has helped reconstruct evolutionary relationships among a wide variety of species. While there are preexis......
