The Andean cloud forests of Ecuador are home to several endemic mammals. Members of
the Thomasomyini rodents are well represented in the Andes, with Thomasomys being the …

Jumping mice (subfamily Zapodinae) occur across most of North America (Zapus and
Napaeozapus) and in confined regions in China (Eozapus). Recent molecular phylogenies …

Phodopus is the smallest cricetine genus, consisting of the dwarf hamsters (Phodopus
sungorus, Phodopus campbelli, and Phodopus roborovskii) of arid central and east Asia …

The genus Calomys includes several species that have very similar external morphologies,
which often leads to confusing field identification and has resulted in conflictive taxonomic …

Recent phylogenetic studies amended the taxonomy of three-toed jerboas (subfamily
Dipodinae), including raising subspecies to full species. Here, we use geometric …

Simple Summary Two ecogeographic rules predict morphological changes along latitudinal
clines based on thermoregulatory causes. To maintain corporal heat in cold environments …

Traditional Dipodomys (sub) species identification uses geography, phenotype, and
external/skull measurements. Such measurements are correlated with size and thus …

Abstract Recently, Agnolin et al.(2019) described 14 new species of mammals, including 12
rodents, one bat, and one carnivore, and one new subspecies of rodent. In addition, these …

Mollusk shells have shown to be useful as biological proxies for palaeo environmental
reconstructions. In this study we perform an integral assessment of geometric morphometrics …
