In this paper, the new gerbil species Debruijnimys primaevus sp. nov. is described from the Early Pliocene site of La Piquera in central Spain. This species differs from the type species Debruijnimys julii in its smaller dimensions and less developed longitudinal ridges in the lower molars. [...]

The Early Pliocene maar deposits of Camp dels Ninots (Catalonia, NE Iberia) have produced an exceptionally well-preserved fossil assemblage. Among the large mammals, a large bovid stands out, represented by 14 individuals, including 8 nearly complete and partially articulated skeletons. [...]

First fossil remains of the extant colubrid Zamenis situla (Linnaeus, 1758) (Serpentes) from the island of Crete, Greece

We here provide the first description of fossil remains of the colubrid snake cf. Zamenis situla from Crete, Greece, originating from the Late Pleistocene of the Rethymnon fissure. Although Zamenis situla (Linnaeus, 1758) is a widespread snake species in Greece, including Crete, its fossil record in the area has thus far been restricted to Middle Pleistocene material from Tourkobounia 2, near Athens, which also represents the sole confirmed fossil occurrence of the species. [...]

As human activities continue to reshape ecosystems, understanding wildlife adaptations is crucial in ecology. This study examines how the opportunistic yellow-legged gull Larus michahellis adjusts its diet and foraging behaviour during breeding to new, human-related feeding opportunities in a highly humanized region of the southern Iberian Peninsula.

Craniodental morphology of Propotamochoerus palaeochoerus (Suidae: Suinae) from the late Miocene of els Hostalets de Pierola (Vallès-Penedès Basin, NE Iberian Peninsula): systematic and biochronological implications

Suines originated in Asia during the Middle Miocene and dispersed into Europe by the early Late Miocene. Their first European record, which corresponds to Propotamochoerus palaeochoerus, was formerly dated to MN7+8 but recent data have suggested an earliest MN9 age. [...]

Enhanced elbow mobility in insular Meles populations: Insights from myological and osteological comparisons

Kimura, Yuri (Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont)
Island colonization can drive anatomical adaptations in mammals, yet few studies have examined how such changes occur in limb musculature and osteology. Here, we investigate the brachial and antebrachial anatomy of Meles badgers to understand functional adaptations associated with insular environments. [...]

Despite the fact that a well-developed frontal sinus is an apomorphy evolved only in the subfamily Caninae, important ecological factors might have played a role in the development of this paranasal cavity. [...]

Objective: evaluating the relationships between the shape and biomechanical function of bone cross-sections can contribute novel insights towards human functional and evolutionary morphology. However, this research involves unique analytical and statistical challenges when comparing complex and multidimensional shape data to multivariate biomechanical variables. [...]
