P.S.Villar et al. (2026) studied #evolutionary aspects of the #copulatoryorgan in #male #octopuses and describe it as #multifunctional organ that performs two key #functions: the #hectocotylus is a specialized tentacle that delivers #spermatophores into the #female's #mantlecavity. But the authors identified it also as #chemotactile #receptor for #progesterone during #materecognition.

RE: https://mastodon.green/@plazi_species/116260383338896477
#Endemic #species are always interesting from different perspectives, e.g. from an #evolutionary and #ecological point of view. This also applies to #skinks of the genus
#Madascincus, being with several known species endemic to #Madagascar.
A. Miralles et al. (2026) described based on #multilocus #phylogenetics and #morphology two #newspecies:
M. #irery and M.
#minotaurus, with restricted distributions to limited areas of Madagascar only.

M.M. Sandin et al. (preprint, 2025) "inferred a timeline of #eukaryoteevolution using molecular clock and birth-death diversification models". They used a "#dataset of 75,975 non-redundant...#taxonomicunits and 77 well-supported fossil calibrations" and reconstructed an #evolutionary #diversification of #eukaryote #crowngroup representatives in the Proterozoic (ca. 2.5 billion to 541 million y. ago).

All-new in SEP, Jason Marsh's Evolutionary Approaches to Religion, https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/religion-evolutionary/
Davin Hunt and Linda Zagzebski have also revised their "classical" entry on Foreknowledge and Free Will, https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/free-will-foreknowledge/. I still remember studying that article for the first time. The theme was of no interest to me, but Zagzebski's skill in thinking aloud just fascinated a philosophically infested fellow earthling.

#Sarcoptes #scabiei var. hominis (#Astigmata, Acariformes) is a skin-#parasitic #mite that feeds on human #epidermal cells. Infection typically occurs via adult, mated #females.The mite has #subspecies found on both #domestic and #wild #animals. The #evolutionary direction was via #humanancestors to humans and from there #spreading first to domestic animals and then to wild animals (see ref).

For a long time, #evolutionary #biologists have thought that the #genetic #mutations that drive the #evolution of #genes and proteins are largely neutral: they’re neither good nor bad, but just ordinary enough to slip through the notice of selection.

#Mites of the #Histiostomatidae (#Astigmata) not only have highly #modified #mouthparts (see photo) that form a #filterfeeding organ, but their #copulatoryposition is also an #evolutionary #modification. Other Astigmata mate back-to-back, while Histiostomatidae have the male riding on top of the female, head over head. See here the dorsal #copulationopening of a #female of #Histiostoma sp..

This study contradicts the more traditional #evolutionary view — on island-colonizing species, whose #genomes are larger and often have more repetitive elements — and expands the scientific debate on a major puzzle in evolutionary biology: how and why does genome size change during the evolution of living beings?

New #studies show that a #bacterial molecule, #peptidoglycan, is present in the #brain and fluctuates with #sleep patterns. This challenges the idea that sleep is solely brain-driven, instead suggesting it’s a #collaborative process between our #bodies and #microbiomes. The theory links #microbes not only to sleep but also to #cognition, #appetite, and #behavior, pointing to a profound #evolutionary relationship

My day job is all about #genes, so I applaud the #genomic revolution in #paleontology and #evolutionary #biology. But #evolution really is more than a shift in #allele frequencies over time. It's also change in the #phenotypes those alleles produce, and their #interaction with the world around them. 🧪🖥🧬🦖
So I'm equally excited about the #quantitative revolution in describing and cataloguing #traits which until recently could only be analyzed #qualitatively. There's a whole new window opening into the history of life.

The Physics of Cold Water May Have Jump-Started Complex #Life
When #seawater gets cold, it gets viscous. This fact could explain how single-celled #ocean creatures became multicellular when the planet was frozen during “#SnowballEarth,” according to experiments.
The prevailing scientific view is that such frigid temperatures would slow rather than speed evolution. But fossil records from 720 to 635MYA show an #evolutionary spurt preceding the development of #animals.
