Two malaria parasites (Apicomplexa: Plasmodiidae) of the Australian skink Egernia stokesii.
The Australian skink Egernia stokesii is parasitized uncommonly by Plasmodium circularis n. sp. and by Plasmodium mackerrasae. Plasmodium circularis is distinguished from all other plasmodiids by immature schizonts that encircle host cell nuclei, forming an unbroken ring from apparent fusion of the attenuated ends. Mature schizonts contract into halteridial or dumbbell-shaped forms 15.6 x 4.3 m...
متن کاملDoes adrenal responsiveness vary with sex and reproductive status in Egernia whitii, a viviparous skink?
In mammals, oestrogens generally stimulate adrenal function whilst androgens are inhibitory, and gestating females down-regulate their acute response to stressors in order to protect current reproductive investment. This study aimed to determine if adrenocortical function is similarly modulated by sex and reproductive status in the viviparous lizard, Egernia whitii. We compared the adrenocortic...
متن کاملCombining dispersal, landscape connectivity and habitat suitability to assess climate-induced changes in the distribution of Cunningham’s skink, Egernia cunninghami
The ability of species to track their climate niche is dependent on their dispersal potential and the connectivity of the landscape matrix linking current and future suitable habitat. However, studies modeling climate-driven range shifts rarely address the movement of species across landscapes realistically, often assuming "unlimited" or "no" dispersal. Here, we incorporate dispersal rate and l...

متن کاملIndividual Behavior and Group Membership
People who are members of a group, and identify with it, behave differently from people in isolation. The way in which the behavior differs depends in subtle ways from the way in which the nature of the group is perceived, as well as its salience, and also on the way in which people perceive that group membership and observation affects the behavior of others. We study these hypotheses in a str...
