DOI: 10.1016/j.pecon.2017.07.001
Abstract: Abstract Biological invasion is one of the main drivers of biodiversity loss and ecosystem damage. Invasive species are difficult to eradicate and prevention is considered the best approach. The pied crow ( Corvus albus )… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.precamres.2021.106119
Abstract: Abstract 70–80% of the continental crust was produced during the 4.0–2.0 Ga time span, but the preserved area of Archean/early Paleoproterozoic cratons is smaller than 40%. Part of this deficit can be accounted for by the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jfb.15015
Abstract: Recently in this journal, a new trichomycterine from eastern Brazil, Trichomycterus astromycterus, was described and considered possibly related to the Chilean Bullockia maldonadoi due to morphological similarities. Subsequently, osteological data supported T. astromycterus in the… read more here.
