We propose that the ontogenetic development of offspring's ability to recognize mother's faces and facial expressions may be closely related to primate evolutionary development levels. However, further study, especially comparing the taxa in Rhinopithecus and other Old World monkeys, is critically required to clarify what we found and proposed.

Deforestation in the Atlantic Forest has reached critical levels, threatening multiple levels of biodiversity. In these deforested landscapes, conservation strategies could benefit from preserving agroforestry systems known as Cabruca, a traditional method of cultivating cocoa under a canopy of native trees. In this context, Cariniana legalis (Jequitibá-rosa), an endemic tree species of the Atlantic Forest listed as endangered, was selected to evaluate the role of cocoa agroforests (Cabrucas) and forest remnants in the genetic conservation of this species.

To investigate the effect of body size on muscle quality of common carp ( L.), we systematically tracked the dynamic changes in nutrient content, texture, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) among small-sized (~100 g), medium-sized (~250 g), and large-sized (~600 g) fish (SYRC, MYRC, and HYRC, respectively) over a 30-week feeding trial. The results indicated that the HYRC showed significantly reduced moisture and lipid content, along with increased protein content, hydroxyproline, hardness, and chewiness compared to the SYRC ( < 0.

Antipredator behaviors in animals often vary with developmental stage, microhabitat, and social context, yet few studies examine how these factors interact in species that undergo ontogenetic shifts in chemical defense. The spotted lanternfly () is an invasive planthopper whose nymphs transition from cryptically colored early instars to aposematically colored fourth instars that feed primarily on chemically defended host plants. We conducted 1460 simulated predator attacks on nymphs across four developmental stages to examine how antipredator behavior varies with instar, plant location (leaf vs.

Haloperidol is a typical antipsychotic drug widely used for acute confusional state, psychotic disorders, agitation, delirium, and aggressive behavior. The toxicity of haloperidol was studied using zebrafish (ZF) embryos as a model organism. Dechorionated embryos were exposed to various concentrations of haloperidol (0.

Vocal signalling is an important mode of communication in fishes. The two species of lionfish in the Pterois complex, the Indo-Pacific lionfish (Pterois volitans) and the red lionfish (Pterois miles), are both known to produce different types of sounds with sonic muscles attached to the swimbladder. However, the specific mechanism and the functions of these vocalisations in these invasive species are still unknown.
