Tardigrade diversity and distribution are enigmatic in most parts of the globe, and only some European countries can boast of a relatively well-studied water bear fauna. However, even these suffer from the lack of genetic data, which would substantiate faunistic data and make biogeographic comparisons easier. Denmark has never been intensively and systematically researched in this regard, thus a citizen science sampling of cryptogams (mosses, liverworts, and lichens) was launched in spring 2023, aiming at a comprehensive biodiversity survey across this insular country. Nearly 700 samples were selected out of 8.000 sent to NHMD, based on the quality of samples, representativeness of various regions of Denmark, and the type of substrate to allow unravelling of potential ecological associations between tardigrades and cryptogams. Importantly, a large fraction of morphological identifications was backed up by DNA barcode data based on ITS-2 (1001 sequences), and in some cases also on COI (93 sequences) and ITS-1 (22 sequences) molecular markers, which are recognised DNA fragments used in species delimitation. We quadruple the number of known Danish limno-terrestrial tardigrade species (55 spp. reported in this paper vs. 14 spp. reported in literature so far, most of which were contentious due to the insufficient knowledge on tardigrade taxonomy), demonstrating the power of integrative taxonomy. No fewer than nine spp. are new to science. This is the first case where tardigrade fauna of an entire country is examined both from morphological and DNA barcoding data perspective.
在全球大部分地区,缓行动物的多样性和分布都是一个谜,只有一些欧洲国家的水熊动物群研究得相对较好。然而,即使是这些国家也缺乏基因数据,而基因数据可以证实动物学数据,并使生物地理比较更加容易。丹麦从未在这方面进行过深入系统的研究,因此在 2023 年春季启动了一项隐花植物(苔藓、肝草和地衣)公民科学采样活动,旨在对这个海岛国家的生物多样性进行全面调查。根据样本的质量、在丹麦各地区的代表性以及基质类型,从发送给 NHMD 的 8,000 份样本中选出了近 700 份样本,以揭示沙蜥和隐花植物之间潜在的生态关联。重要的是,大部分形态鉴定都有基于 ITS-2(1001 个序列)的 DNA 条形码数据作为支持,在某些情况下还有基于 COI(93 个序列)和 ITS-1 (22 个序列)分子标记的数据,这些标记是用于物种划分的公认 DNA 片段。我们将已知的丹麦跛足沙蜥物种数量增加了四倍(本文报告了 55 个种,而迄今为止文献中报告的物种只有 14 个,其中大部分因对沙蜥分类学的了解不足而存在争议),显示了综合分类学的威力。其中不少于 9 个种是科学界的新发现。这是首次从形态学和 DNA 条形码数据的角度对整个国家的沙蜥动物群进行研究。

The deep-sea acorn worm Quatuoralisia malakhovi belongs to the phylum Hemichordata, class Enteropneusta, family Torquaratoridae, which was described in 2005. Owing to their epibenthic lifestyle and deep-sea habitat features, torquaratorids differ anatomically from shallow-water acorn worms; however, their morphology and fine structure are poorly studied. We have the opportunity to make three complete detailed series of histological sections of Q. malakhovi and to study the microscopic anatomy, histology and fine structure of the reproductive system of this acorn worm using scanning and transmission electron microscopy. The sexes of Q. malakhovi are separate and indistinguishable externally. The lobed testes occupy the dorsal side of the genital wings and distinctly bulge into the peribranchial cavity by their mature lobes. The central part of the testis is always submerged into the genital wing and opens via a single gonad pore. The monociliary muscle cells stretch along the external wall of the testis and surround the gonad pore, probably taking part in the contraction of the testis lobes for spawning. The germinative epithelium of the testis contains spermatogenic cells at different stages of development and interstitial cells. Yolk cells are not found. Interstitial cells embrace the spermatogonia and spermatogenic columns, providing horizontal compartmentalization of the germinative epithelium, and contain numerous phagosomes with remnants of degenerating spermatogenic cells. The testis wall contains haemal lacunae, which are usually located on the side opposite the gonad pore. We describe the fine structure of spermatogonia, spermatocytes clustered in spermatogenic columns, spermatids, and spermatozoa. Spermatozoa are of the ectaquasperm type and consist of an acorn-shaped head and a flagellum 18–25 µm long. The sperm head includes a beak-shaped acrosomal part, a spherical nucleus and a midpiece containing a ring of 5 or rarely 6 mitochondria. The male reproductive system and sperm structure of Q. malakhovi, a representative of the family Torquaratoridae, have a number of differences from shallow-water acorn worms; however, the spermatogenesis and sperm structure of Q. malakhovi generally follow the pattern of the other three enteropneust families, and the phylogenetic significance of these deviations should be the subject of further research.
深海橡实虫(Quatuoralisia malakhovi)隶属于半知足目(Hemichordata),肠纲(Enteropneusta),Torquaratoridae科,于2005年被描述。由于它们的底栖生活方式和深海栖息地特征,Torquaratoridae 在解剖学上不同于浅水橡实虫;然而,对它们的形态和精细结构研究甚少。我们利用扫描和透射电子显微镜,对马拉科维橡实虫进行了三次完整的组织学切片研究,并对其生殖系统的显微解剖学、组织学和精细结构进行了研究。Q. malakhovi的雌雄两性是分开的,外部无法区分。分叶睾丸位于生殖器翅的背面,成熟的分叶睾丸明显凸入鳃周腔。睾丸的中央部分始终浸没在生殖翼中,并通过单个生殖孔打开。单纤毛肌细胞沿睾丸外壁伸展,环绕生殖孔,可能参与睾丸裂片的收缩,以便产卵。睾丸的生精上皮包含处于不同发育阶段的生精细胞和间质细胞。没有卵黄细胞。间质细胞包含精原细胞和生精柱,为生精上皮提供水平分隔,并含有大量吞噬体和退化的生精细胞残余。睾丸壁含有血腔,通常位于性腺孔相对的一侧。我们描述了精原细胞、聚集在生精柱中的精母细胞、精子细胞和精子的精细结构。精子属于外生精子类型,由一个橡子形的头部和一条长 18-25 µm 的鞭毛组成。精子头部包括一个喙状顶体部分、一个球形细胞核和一个包含 5 个线粒体或很少 6 个线粒体的中段。作为 Torquaratoridae 科的代表,Q. malakhovi 的雄性生殖系统和精子结构与浅水橡子虫有许多不同之处;然而,Q. malakhovi 的精子发生和精子结构总体上遵循了其他三个肠虫科的模式,这些偏差的系统发育意义应是进一步研究的主题。

Toe fringes are a key innovation for sand dwelling lizards, and the relationship between toe fringe function and substrate properties is helpful in understanding the adaptation of lizards to sand dune environments. We tested the sand burial performance of Phrynocephalus mystaceus on different sand substrates with toe fringe manipulation, with the aim of assessing whether the function of the toe fringes shifts under different substrate properties, especially in highly mobile substrates. The sand burial performance of P. mystaceus was influenced by substrate properties in relation to the toe fringe states of the lizard. After removal of the bilateral toe fringes, the sand burial ability score of P. mystaceus was significantly higher on sand substrates below 100 mesh than on native sand substrates. As the angle of stability of the substrate properties decreased, the sand burial performance of the lizard was even better after the bilateral toe fringes were removed. The results of the LASSO model and the path analysis model showed that the stability angle provided the opposite effect on sand burial performance in different toe fringe states. These results further suggest that the sand burial function of toe fringes may not be suitable for highly mobile sand substrates. It remains to be tested further whether the function of toe fringes is more important for running on sand.
趾缘是沙栖蜥蜴的一项关键创新,趾缘功能与基质性质之间的关系有助于理解蜥蜴对沙丘环境的适应。我们通过操纵趾缘来测试神秘沙蜥在不同沙质基质上的埋沙性能,目的是评估趾缘的功能在不同基质性质下是否会发生变化,尤其是在高流动性基质上。沙蜥的趾缘状态受基质性质的影响。在去除双侧趾缘后,神秘巨蜥在100目以下砂质基质上的埋沙能力得分明显高于在原生砂质基质上的埋沙能力得分。随着基质性质稳定角的减小,移除双侧趾缘后,沙蜥的埋沙能力更强。LASSO 模型和路径分析模型的结果表明,在不同的趾缘状态下,稳定角对沙埋性能的影响是相反的。这些结果进一步表明,趾状缘的埋砂功能可能不适合高流动性的砂基。趾缘的功能对于在沙地上行驶是否更为重要,还有待进一步检验。

Rapidly expanding human activities have profoundly changed the habitat use of both large carnivores and their prey, but whether and how human activities affect the interactions between them has received relatively less attention. In this study, we conducted a systematically designed camera-trapping survey on an endangered large carnivore (North Chinese leopard Panthera pardus japonensis) and its wild ungulate prey (Siberian roe deer Capreolus pygargus and wild boar Sus scrofa) in the Taihang Mountains of central North China. Using conditional two-species occupancy model based on data derived from the extensive sampling effort (15,654 camera-days at 102 camera sites), we examined the relationship of spatial use between leopards and each prey species under the effects of human presence, free-ranging cattle, roads and settlements. Humans and cattle had contrasting effects on the relationship of spatial use between leopard and roe deer, with higher and lower spatial segregation between them at human and cattle-frequented sites, respectively. Roads might create a shelter for wild boar from leopard predation, with less spatial segregation between them at sites close to the roads. Our findings demonstrate that human activities are reshaping the spatial overlap between large carnivores and their prey, and have non-equivalent effects among different types of human activity. Such effects may further alter the strength of interspecific interactions between predator and prey, with far-reaching influences on the community and ecosystem that require more research.
快速扩张的人类活动深刻地改变了大型食肉动物及其猎物对栖息地的利用,但人类活动是否以及如何影响它们之间的相互作用却相对较少受到关注。在本研究中,我们对华北中部太行山地区的濒危大型食肉动物(华北豹)及其野生猎物(西伯利亚狍和野猪)进行了系统设计的相机诱捕调查。根据大量取样工作(102 个取样点,15654 个照相日)获得的数据,我们使用条件双物种占据模型,研究了在人类存在、放养牛群、道路和定居点的影响下,豹和每种猎物之间的空间利用关系。人类和牛群对豹子与狍子之间空间利用关系的影响截然不同,在人类和牛群频繁活动的地点,豹子与狍子之间的空间隔离度分别较高和较低。道路可能为野猪提供了躲避金钱豹捕食的庇护所,在靠近道路的地点,野猪与金钱豹之间的空间隔离较小。我们的研究结果表明,人类活动正在重塑大型食肉动物与其猎物之间的空间重叠,并且对不同类型的人类活动产生了不等同的影响。这种影响可能会进一步改变捕食者与猎物之间种间相互作用的强度,对群落和生态系统产生深远的影响,需要进行更多的研究。

Explosive regeneration and anamorphic development of legs in the house centipede Scutigera coleoptrata 家养蜈蚣的爆炸性再生和腿的变态发育

Regenerating legs is advantageous for arthropods as their appendages exhibit crucial functional specializations. Many arthropods possess a ‘preferred breakage point’, where the appendage is most likely to break and where regeneration likely to occur, however, different taxa exhibit different levels of regenerative potential. Centipede appendage regeneration is categorized as 'progressive' or 'explosive'. In the later, the appendage is fully regenerated after one molt. This term was used for house centipedes that frequently lose their long legs. We chose Scutigera coleoptrata as a model to comprehensively investigate the process of leg appendotomy and regeneration as well as compare it with leg development in anamorphic instars. The trochanter exhibits a preferred breakage point. Internally, it houses a three-layered diaphragm that effectively seals the lumen. In case of leg loss, the wound is quickly sealed. The epidermis detaches from the cuticle and muscles of the coxa get compacted, giving sufficient space for the regenerating leg. A blastema forms and the leg then grows in a coiled manner. The regenerating leg is innervated and syncytial muscles form. If the leg is lost in an early intermolt phase, progression of regeneration is slower than when a specimen is closer to the next molt. Instars of house centipedes can simultaneously develop and regenerate legs. The legs develop laterally on the posterior segments under the cuticle. As opposed to regeneration, the progression of leg development always follows the same temporal pattern throughout the entire intermolt phase. Several factors are of major significance in house centipede leg regeneration. First, the ease with which they lose legs: the diaphragm represents an efficient tool for appendotomy. Moreover, the functional extension of the coxa provides space for a leg to be regenerated in. Lastly, the genetic predisposition allows them to regenerate legs within one molting cycle. This “package” is unique among land arthropods, and to this degree rare in marine taxa. Furthermore, observing leg regeneration and anamorphic leg development in parallel suggest that regeneration is most likely an epiphenomenon of development, and the differences are a requirement for the novel context in which re-development occurs.
腿的再生对节肢动物来说是有利的,因为它们的附肢具有重要的功能特化。许多节肢动物都有一个 "首选断裂点",即附肢最有可能断裂和再生的地方。蜈蚣的附肢再生分为 "渐进式 "和 "爆发式 "两种。在后一种情况下,附肢在一次蜕皮后完全再生。这一术语用于经常失去长腿的家养蜈蚣。我们选择库氏蜈蚣(Scutigera coleoptrata)作为模型,以全面研究腿部附肢切除和再生的过程,并将其与无形态阶的腿部发育过程进行比较。转子显示出一个首选的断裂点。其内部有三层隔膜,可有效密封管腔。一旦断腿,伤口很快就会被封住。表皮从角质层脱落,跗关节的肌肉被压缩,为再生的腿部提供了足够的空间。形成胚泡,然后腿以盘绕的方式生长。再生腿受到神经支配,形成合肌肉。如果在蜕皮间的早期阶段失去了腿,再生的速度会比接近下一次蜕皮时慢。家蜈蚣的蜕皮期可以同时发育和再生腿。蜈蚣的腿在角质层下的后节上侧面发育。与再生不同的是,在整个蜕皮间期,腿的发育始终遵循相同的时间模式。有几个因素对家养蜈蚣腿的再生具有重要意义。首先,它们很容易失去腿:横膈膜是一种有效的阑尾切除工具。此外,跗节的功能性延伸为腿的再生提供了空间。最后,遗传倾向使它们能够在一个蜕皮周期内再生出腿。这种 "组合 "在陆地节肢动物中是独一无二的,在海洋类群中也是罕见的。此外,同时观察腿的再生和拟态腿的发育表明,再生很可能是发育的附带现象,而差异则是再发育发生的新环境的要求。

Context or arousal? Function of drumming in Mongolian gerbils (Meriones unguiculatus) 情境还是唤醒?蒙古沙鼠击鼓的功能

Drumming is a non-vocal auditory display producing airborne as well as seismic vibrations by tapping body extremities on a surface. It is mostly described as an alarm signal but is also discussed to signal dominance or mating quality. To clarify the function of drumming in Mongolian gerbils (Meriones unguiculatus), we compared the occurrence of drumming during predator, opposite-sex and same-sex encounters. We tested 48 captive Mongolian gerbils (Meriones unguiculatus) in three experiments. In predator experiments, subjects were exposed alone or with their cagemate to aerial and terrestrial predator dummies. In social encounter experiments, familiar and unfamiliar male–female dyads and same-sex dyads were confronted. For the same-sex encounters, a dominance index was calculated for each subject based on the number of won and lost conflicts. Drumming and drumming-call combinations were counted, and a multi-parametric sound analysis was performed. In all experiments drumming and drumming-call combinations occurred. In predator experiments, more subjects drummed when confronted with the predator stimulus than in the habituation phase. In social encounter experiments, more subjects drummed when facing an unfamiliar than a familiar conspecific. In addition, the accompanying call type and body posture of the sender differed between experiments. Thus, we suggest that whereas drumming signals an increased arousal state of the sender, the accompanying call type and the body posture signal context specific information.
击鼓是一种非发声的听觉表现,通过在表面上敲击身体的四肢产生空气振动和地震振动。击鼓大多被描述为一种报警信号,但也有讨论认为击鼓是统治或交配质量的信号。为了明确蒙古沙鼠(Meriones unguiculatus)击鼓的功能,我们比较了捕食者、异性和同性相遇时击鼓的发生率。我们在三个实验中测试了 48 只圈养的蒙古沙鼠(Meriones unguiculatus)。在捕食者实验中,受试者单独或与笼友一起暴露在空中和陆地捕食者假人面前。在社会相遇实验中,熟悉和不熟悉的雌雄二人组和同性二人组都要面对。在同性相遇中,根据冲突的输赢次数计算出每个实验对象的优势指数。对击鼓和击鼓-呼叫组合进行了计数,并进行了多参数声音分析。在所有实验中都出现了击鼓和击鼓-鸣叫组合。在捕食者实验中,与习惯阶段相比,更多的实验对象在面对捕食者刺激时击鼓。在社会相遇实验中,面对陌生同类时的击鼓声比面对熟悉同类时的击鼓声更多。此外,伴随的鸣叫类型和发出者的身体姿势在不同实验中也有所不同。因此,我们认为击鼓是发出者唤醒状态增强的信号,而伴随的叫声类型和身体姿势则是特定情境信息的信号。

Centipedes are terrestrial and predatory arthropods that possess an evolutionary transformed pair of appendages used for venom injection—the forcipules. Many arthropods incorporate reinforcing elements into the cuticle of their piercing or biting structures to enhance hardness, elasticity or resistance to wear and structural failure. Given their frequent exposure to high mechanical stress, we hypothesise that the cuticle of the centipede forcipule might be mechanically reinforced. With a combination of imaging, analytical techniques and mechanical testing, we explore the centipede forcipule in detail to shed light on its morphology and performance. Additionally, we compare these data to characteristics of the locomotory leg to infer evolutionary processes. We examined sclerotization patterns using confocal laser-scanning microscopy based on autofluorescence properties of the cuticle (forcipule and leg) and elemental composition by energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy in representative species from all five centipede lineages. These experiments revealed gradually increasing sclerotization towards the forcipular tarsungulum and a stronger sclerotization of joints in taxa with condensed podomeres. Depending on the species, calcium, zinc or chlorine are present with a higher concentration towards the distal tarsungulum. Interestingly, these characteristics are more or less mirrored in the locomotory leg’s pretarsal claw in Epimorpha. To understand how incorporated elements affect mechanical properties, we tested resistance to structural failure, hardness (H) and Young’s modulus (E) in two representative species, one with high zinc and one with high calcium content. Both species, however, exhibit similar properties and no differences in mechanical stress the forcipule can withstand. Our study reveals similarities in the material composition and properties of the forcipules in centipedes. The forcipules transformed from an elongated leg-like appearance into rigid piercing structures. Our data supports their serial homology to the locomotory leg and that the forcipule’s tarsungulum is a fusion of tarsus and pretarsal claw. Calcium or zinc incorporation leads to comparable mechanical properties like in piercing structures of chelicerates and insects, but the elemental incorporation does not increase H and E in centipedes, suggesting that centipedes followed their own pathways in the evolutionary transformation of piercing tools.
蜈蚣是陆生和掠食性节肢动物,拥有一对用于注射毒液的附肢--蟾蜍甲(forcipules)。许多节肢动物在其穿刺或咬合结构的表皮中加入强化元素,以增强硬度、弹性或抗磨损和结构失效的能力。鉴于蜈蚣经常暴露在高机械应力下,我们推测蜈蚣瓣膜的角质层可能被机械加固了。我们结合成像、分析技术和机械测试,详细研究了蜈蚣穹窿的形态和性能。此外,我们还将这些数据与运动腿的特征进行比较,以推断其进化过程。我们使用激光扫描共聚焦显微镜,根据蜈蚣所有五个品系的角质层(蹄甲和腿)的自发荧光特性和能量色散 X 射线光谱的元素组成,研究了蜈蚣的硬壳化模式。这些实验表明,硬质化程度向趾甲跗节逐渐增加,在荚膜凝聚的类群中,关节的硬质化程度更强。根据物种的不同,钙、锌或氯在跗关节远端含量较高。有趣的是,这些特征或多或少地反映在 Epimorpha 的运动腿前跗爪上。为了了解所含元素如何影响机械性能,我们测试了两个具有代表性的物种的抗结构破坏能力、硬度(H)和杨氏模量(E),一个含锌量高,一个含钙量高。然而,这两个物种都表现出相似的特性,并且在小穹窿所能承受的机械应力方面没有差异。我们的研究揭示了蜈蚣穹窿的材料成分和特性的相似性。穹窿从细长的腿状外观转变为坚硬的穿刺结构。我们的数据支持它们与运动腿的序列同源性,并支持穹窿跗节是跗节和前跗节爪的融合体。钙或锌的加入使蜈蚣具有与螯足类和昆虫的穿刺结构相似的机械特性,但元素的加入并没有增加蜈蚣的H和E,这表明蜈蚣在穿刺工具的进化转变过程中遵循了自己的路径。

The conservation of aquatic and semiaquatic turtles requires knowledge of the area and vegetation structure of habitat used for nesting, and nesting migration route. We aimed to survey the effects of habitat features to the nest site selection, nesting success, and test the possibility of nest site fidelity. Our study was carried out at 10 different nesting areas, with special emphasis on data from returning females in a pond system in Hungary between 2014 and 2017. Most nesting attempts were found in closed sand steppes, uncharacteristic dry and semi-dry grasslands habitat patches. The principal component analysis (PCA) showed that increased sandy soil cover, sunlight and slope were important variables in nest site choice. The increasing PCA first axis score significantly increased the chance of an emergence. The degradation of open steppe vegetation, occurrence of weeds, invasive and disturbance tolerant species have a negative effect on the selection of nest sites. We observed that 96.55% of nests were located within 20 m south of a pine forest at preferred nest site at pond 5, which provided the right incubation temperature through partial shading. The returning females nested significantly closer to the northern pine forest than the single clutch females. Most probably the returning females already has the necessary experience to select the right nesting site. The individually marked females did not choose new nesting areas during the monitored years which suggests nesting area fidelity, but we did not find nest site fidelity. The maintenance of mosaic habitat structure, slowing down the succession process at the nesting area should be basic priorities in European pond turtle conservation programs. We suggested a spatial and temporal scheduling of land management and agricultural work to the local farmers. If the actual nest site is in an agricultural area, all work should be avoided throughout the year. Agricultural machinery should avoid the migration routes of adult turtles and emerged hatchlings during the concerned period. Under strong predation pressure, predator control should be carried out, and use nest protection.
保护水龟和半水龟需要了解筑巢栖息地的面积和植被结构以及筑巢迁徙路线。我们的目的是调查栖息地特征对筑巢地点选择和筑巢成功率的影响,并测试筑巢地点忠诚度的可能性。我们的研究在10个不同的筑巢区进行,重点是2014年至2017年期间在匈牙利一个池塘系统中从返回的雌鸟那里获得的数据。大多数筑巢尝试都是在封闭的沙质草原、非典型的干旱和半干旱草原生境斑块中进行的。主成分分析(PCA)显示,沙质土壤覆盖率增加、日照和坡度是筑巢地点选择的重要变量。PCA 第一轴得分越高,出现的几率就越大。开阔草原植被退化、杂草丛生、入侵物种和耐干扰物种对巢址选择有负面影响。我们观察到,96.55%的巢位于5号池塘首选巢址松林以南20米范围内,松林通过部分遮荫提供了适宜的孵化温度。与单窝雌鸟相比,返巢雌鸟的巢明显更靠近北部松林。回归雌鸟很可能已经具备了选择正确筑巢地点的必要经验。在监测年份中,单个标记的雌鸟没有选择新的筑巢区,这表明筑巢区是忠实的,但我们没有发现筑巢地点是忠实的。在欧洲池龟保护计划中,维持马赛克栖息地结构、减缓筑巢区的演替过程应该是基本优先事项。我们建议当地农民对土地管理和农业工作进行时空调度。如果实际筑巢地点位于农业区,则应全年避免所有工作。在相关时期,农业机械应避开成龟和幼龟的迁徙路线。在强大的捕食压力下,应进行捕食控制,并使用巢穴保护。

Research into the hunting behavior in members of the Cricetidae family offers an opportunity to reveal what changes in the predatory behavioral sequences occur when a rodent species shifts from an omnivorous to a predatory lifestyle. The study tests the following hypotheses: are there phylogenetic differences in the divergence of species’ predatory lifestyles in hamsters or do ecological factors lead to shaping their hunting behavior? We applied the data compression approach for performing comparative analysis of hunting patterns as biological “texts.” The study presents a comparative analysis of hunting behaviors in five Cricetinae species, focusing on the new data obtained for the desert hamster Phodopus roborovskii whose behavior has never been studied before. The hunting behavior of P. roborovskii appeared to be the most variable one. In contrast, behavioral sequences in P. campbelli and Allocricetulus curtatus display more significant order and predictability of behavior during hunting. Optional hunting behavior in the most ancient species P. roborovskii displayed similarities with obligate patterns in “young” Allocricetulus species. It thus turned out to be the most advanced hunter among members of the Phodopus genus. Differences in hunting sequences among Phodopus representatives suggest that the hunting behavior of these species, despite its optional mode, was subject to selection during species splitting within the genus. These results did not reveal the role played by phylogenetic differences in the divergence of species’ predatory lifestyles. They suggested that ecological conditions are the main factors in speciation of the hunting behavior in hamsters.
对蓖麻科动物狩猎行为的研究提供了一个机会,可以揭示当一种啮齿类动物从杂食性生活方式转变为捕食性生活方式时,捕食行为序列会发生哪些变化。本研究检验了以下假设:仓鼠捕食生活方式的物种分化是否存在系统发育差异,还是生态因素导致了其捕食行为的形成?我们采用数据压缩方法对作为生物 "文本 "的狩猎模式进行了比较分析。本研究对五种仓鼠的狩猎行为进行了比较分析,重点研究了沙漠仓鼠 Phodopus roborovskii 的新数据,此前从未对其狩猎行为进行过研究。P. roborovskii的狩猎行为似乎是最多变的。相比之下,P. campbelli 和 Allocricetulus curtatus 的行为序列在捕猎过程中表现出更明显的行为顺序和可预测性。最古老的物种P. roborovskii的可选捕猎行为与 "年轻 "的Allocricetulus物种的强制性模式相似。因此,它被证明是 Phodopus 属中最先进的狩猎者。Phodopus代表物种之间狩猎序列的差异表明,尽管这些物种的狩猎模式是可选的,但在属内物种分裂过程中,它们的狩猎行为是经过选择的。这些结果并未揭示系统发育差异在物种捕食生活方式分化中所起的作用。他们认为生态条件是仓鼠狩猎行为物种分化的主要因素。
