Abstract: Abstract Sex‐biased dispersal is common in many animals, with male‐biased dispersal often found in studies of mammals and reptiles, including interpretations of spatial genetic structure, ostensibly as a result of male–male competition and a lack… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/joa.12809
Abstract: Comparative developmental studies have shown that the retina of altricial fish and mammals is incompletely developed at birth, and that, during the first days of life, maturation proceeds rapidly. In contrast, precocial fish and mammals… read more here.
