Our results also point to a lower sensitivity of traditional morphological tools to capture the signal that intensive agriculture leaves on development and a lack of capacity of climatic factors in isolation to predict variation in the degree of asymmetry. In addition to encouraging the use of high‐precision methods, we hypothesize on the overall effect of different stressors linked to intensive agriculture as the real constraint. Leer más.





Our study was carried out at 10 different nesting areas, with special emphasis on data from returning females in a pond system in Hungary between 2014 and 2017. Leer más.
he differences detected in the venom profiles, as well as in presence/absence and relative abundances of toxin families, indicate the occurrence of intraspecific venom variation within V. monticola. The identified patterns of venom similarity between subspecies seem to align more with their phylogenetic relationships than with the reported differences in their feeding habits. Leer más.
Tras la aparición de un corzo hace unos días, el parque fluvial del Besòs vuelve a ser escenario de otro hallazgo, esta vez más exótico. Una cría de caimán fue capturada este jueves por la tarde en el río, a la altura del puente del Potosí, en Santa Coloma de Gramenet. Leer más.
Consistent with these field data, lizards at the extreme ends of the phenotypic distribution for body coloration did not show any differences in critical minimum temperature, preferred body temperature, temperature-dependent metabolic rate, or evaporative water loss when tested in the laboratory.
