The Cells of Ecosystem Functioning are natural units of management and conservation, allowing for an ecosystem-based maritime spatial planning based on an accurate knowledge of marine biodiversity and ecosystem functioning which, however, i...
Reprint: A Review of Patterns of Multiple Paternity Across Sea Turtle Rookeries [0.03%]
重刊：全球海龟繁殖区多父系模式的综述分析

Why females would mate with multiple partners and have multiple fathers for clutches or litters is a long-standing enigma. There is a broad dichotomy in hypotheses ranging from polyandry having benefits to simply being an unavoidable conseq...

Patricia L M Lee
There have been multiple paternity studies across many taxa, including birds, reptiles and insects, for many decades. Sea turtles are by far the most studied of any group of reptiles with up to ten fathers recorded for a clutch and multiple...
Reprint: Acclimatization and Adaptive Capacity of Marine Species in a Changing Ocean [0.03%]
关于海洋生物适应变化中的海洋环境的习得过程和适应能力的再思考
Shawna A Foo,Maria Byrne
Shawna A Foo
To persist in an ocean changing in temperature, pH and other stressors related to climate change, many marine species will likely need to acclimatize or adapt to avoid extinction. If marine populations possess adequate genetic variation in ...

Written to serve as a guideline for future research in this field, this roadmap provides some perspectives on the main developments and remaining challenges in the field of marine animal acclimatisation, adaptive potential and resilience to...
Population structure of pygmy (Kogia breviceps) and dwarf (Kogia sima) sperm whales in the Southern Hemisphere may reflect foraging ecology and dispersal patterns [0.03%]
南半球侏须鲸和矮须鲸的人口结构可能反映了其觅食生态和扩散模式
Stephanie Plön,Peter B Best,Pádraig Duignan et al.
Stephanie Plön et al.
Little is known about the biology of pygmy (Kogia breviceps) and dwarf (K. sima) sperm whales as these animals are difficult to observe in the wild. However, both species strand frequently along the South African, Australian and New Zealand...
A histological study of the facial hair follicles in the pygmy sperm whale (Kogia breviceps) [0.03%]

In the pygmy sperm whale (Kogia breviceps, Blainville 1838), vibrissae are present in neonates, but within a few months the hairs are lost, and the structures remain as empty vibrissal crypts (VCs). In this work, we have studied histologica...
A first record of digenean parasites of the dwarf sperm whale Kogia sima with morphological and molecular information [0.03%]

Akira Shiozaki et al.
Two species of digenean trematodes of the family Brachycladiidae were obtained from two male dwarf sperm whales Kogia sima that stranded along the island of Kyushu, southern Japan in 2017. From the liver of the first animal, a single, large...

Shin Nishida et al.
The two Kogia species, the pygmy sperm whale (K. breviceps) and the dwarf sperm whale (K. sima), have similar morphological and biological features as well as diets. Both species are deep divers, and both have wide distributions from tropic...
