Regeneration, the replacement of lost body parts, is widespread yet highly variable among
animals. Explaining this variation remains a major challenge in biology. Great strides have …

We propose a practical concept that distinguishes the particular kind of weaponry that has
evolved to be used in combat between individuals of the same species and sex, which we …

In 1969, a palaeontologist proposed that theropod dinosaurs used their tails as dynamic
stabilizers during rapid or irregular movements, contributing to their depiction as active and …

Far from the line drawings and black-and-white photos of the past, Infectious Diseases and
Pathology of Reptiles features high-quality, color photos of normal anatomy and histology …

Neotropical skinks are unique among lizards and other vertebrates in their degree of
convergence, in reproductive traits, with eutherian mammals. They have also been famously …

Systematic reviews and meta‐analyses often examine data from diverse taxa to identify
general patterns of effect sizes. Meta‐analyses that focus on identifying generalisations in a …

Autotomy, the self‐induced loss of a body part, occurs throughout Animalia. A lizard
dropping its tail to escape predation is an iconic example, however, autotomy occurs in a …

Ecology and evolution unfold in spatially structured communities, where dispersal links
dynamics across scales. Because dispersal is multicausal, identifying general drivers …

Mechanical injury is a prevalent challenge in the lives of animals with myriad potential
consequences for organisms, including reduced fitness and death. Research on animal …
