Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2023 at "Ecology and Evolution"
DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9980
Abstract: Abstract The decline in mammalian species diversity is increasing worldwide, with areas characterized by high human activities experiencing more prominent effects. Knowledge of spatial distributions of species and factors acting on them is necessary for… read more here.

Current global risks to marine mammals: Taking stock of the threats
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Biological Conservation"
DOI: 10.1016/j.biocon.2018.02.021
Abstract: Abstract Marine mammals are impacted by many anthropogenic activities and mitigating these impacts requires knowledge about the geographic occurrence of threats. Here, we systematically reviewed, categorized and geo-referenced information from >1780 publications about threats affecting… read more here.

Havens for threatened Australian mammals: the contributions of fenced areas and offshore islands to the protection of mammal species susceptible to introduced predators
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Wildlife Research"
DOI: 10.1071/wr17172
Abstract: Context Many Australian mammal species are highly susceptible to predation by introduced domestic cats (Felis catus) and European red foxes (Vulpes vulpes). These predators have caused many extinctions and have driven large distributional and population… read more here.

Degrees of population-level susceptibility of Australian terrestrial non-volant mammal species to predation by the introduced red fox (Vulpes vulpes) and feral cat (Felis catus)
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Wildlife Research"
DOI: 10.1071/wr18008
Abstract: Context Over the last 230 years, the Australian terrestrial mammal fauna has suffered a very high rate of decline and extinction relative to other continents. Predation by the introduced red fox (Vulpes vulpes) and feral… read more here.

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2103400119
Abstract: Significance Only an estimated 1 to 10% of Earth’s species have been formally described. This discrepancy between the number of species with a formal taxonomic description and actual number of species (i.e., the Linnean shortfall)… read more here.

DOI: 10.1101/2022.12.06.519416
Abstract: Background Previous human cases or epidemics have suggested that Monkeypox virus (MPXV) can be transmitted through contacts with animals of African rainforests. Although MPXV has been identified in many mammal species, most are likely secondary… read more here.

Invasive and Alien Mammal Species in Poland—A Review
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2023 at "Diversity"
DOI: 10.3390/d15020138
Abstract: About 20 species of non-native mammals have been recorded in Poland. Some of them are already extinct or have been extirpated, while others are widely distributed and may affect the native biota in Poland. We… read more here.

Predicting Species Boundaries and Assessing Undescribed Diversity in Pneumocystis, an Obligate Lung Symbiont
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Journal of Fungi"
DOI: 10.3390/jof8080799
Abstract: Far more biodiversity exists in Fungi than has been described, or could be described in several lifetimes, given current rates of species discovery. Although this problem is widespread taxonomically, our knowledge of animal-associated fungi is… read more here.

Detection of Pneumocystis and Morphological Description of Fungal Distribution and Severity of Infection in Thirty-Six Mammal Species
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2023 at "Journal of Fungi"
DOI: 10.3390/jof9020220
Abstract: Pneumocystis spp. are thought to adapt to the lungs of potentially all mammals. However, the full host range, fungal burden and severity of infection are unknown for many species. In this study, lung tissue samples… read more here.
