  • Testing the Occurrence of Convergence in the Craniomandibular Shape Evolution of Living Carnivorans
    ORIGINAL ARTICLE doi:10.1111/evo.14229 Testing the occurrence of convergence in the craniomandibular shape evolution of living carnivorans Davide Tamagnini,1,2,3 Carlo Meloro,4 Pasquale Raia,5 and Luigi Maiorano1,2 1Department of Biology and Biotechnologies “Charles Darwin,”, University of Rome “La Sapienza,”, Rome 00185, Italy 2Museum of Zoology, Sapienza Museum Centre, University of Rome “La Sapienza,”, Rome 00185, Italy 3E-mail: [email protected] 4Research Centre in Evolutionary Anthropology and Palaeoecology, School of Natural Sciences and Psychology, Liverpool John Moores University, Liverpool L3 3AF, United Kingdom 5Dipartimento di Scienze della Terra, dell’Ambiente e delle Risorse, University of Naples Federico II, Napoli 80126, Italy Received May 30, 2020 Accepted March 28, 2021 Convergence consists in the independent evolution of similar traits in distantly related species. The mammalian craniomandibu- lar complex constitutes an ideal biological structure to investigate ecomorphological dynamics and the carnivorans, due to their phenotypic variability and ecological flexibility, offer an interesting case study to explore the occurrence of convergent evolution. Here, we applied multiple pattern-based metrics to test the occurrence of convergence in the craniomandibular shape of extant carnivorans. To this aim, we tested for convergence in many dietary groups and analyzed several cases of carnivoran convergence concerning either ecologically equivalent species or ecologically similar species of different body sizes described in the literature. Our results validate the occurrence of convergence in ecologically equivalent species in a few cases (as well as in the case of giant and red pandas), but almost never support the occurrence of convergent evolution in dietary categories of living carnivorans.

  • The Mineral Prospecting Expeditions to the South Atlantic Islands and Antarctic Peninsula Region Made by the Scottish Geologist David Ferguson, 1912-1914
    Published in Scottish Journal of Geology, 2013, Volume 49, 59-77. Note that this version of the text does not include the Journal’s editorial and proof corrections The mineral prospecting expeditions to the South Atlantic islands and Antarctic Peninsula region made by the Scottish geologist David Ferguson, 1912-1914 P. Stone1 & J. Faithfull2 1. British Geological Survey, Murchison House, West Mains Road, Edinburgh, EH9 3LA, UK (e-mail: [email protected]) 2. Hunterian Museum, University of Glasgow, Glasgow G12 8QQ, UK Synopsis David Ferguson’s mineral prospecting expeditions to South Georgia (1912), the Falkland Islands and the South Shetland Islands (1913-1914), on behalf of the Christian Salvesen whaling company of Leith and now largely forgotten, were early examples of commercially motivated terrestrial exploration in the South Atlantic region. Prior geological knowledge was very limited and Ferguson complemented his unsuccessful prospecting work with attempts to understand the regional geology of the areas that he visited. These interpretations were based on relatively cursory field work undertaken in an arduous environment, and did not prove robust; but the well- documented specimen collections that Ferguson accumulated provided the basis for excellent and much-cited petrographical accounts by G.W. Tyrrell of Glasgow University. Ferguson had studied geology at the university and the influence of his mentor there, Professor J.W. Gregory, is apparent. In turn, Gregory utilised Ferguson’s observations in support of a subsided ‘South Atlantic continent’, opposing the ‘displacement hypothesis’ for that region formalised by Alfred Wegener from 1912 onwards. Ferguson’s field notebooks and most of his rock specimens are now 1 held by Glasgow University (Archive Services and Hunterian Museum respectively) but he distributed representative specimen collections widely, and these are extant in several other British museums.

  • 250 Years of Cattle on the Falkland Islands, 1763-2013 R. Trevor Wilson1
    Journal of Agriculture and Environmental Sciences June 2016, Vol. 5, No. 1, pp. 1-19 ISSN: 2334-2404 (Print), 2334-2412 (Online) Copyright © The Author(s). All Rights Reserved. Published by American Research Institute for Policy Development DOI: 10.15640/jaes.v5n1a1 URL: https://doi.org/10.15640/jaes.v5n1a1 From Feral to fully farmed: 250 years of Cattle on the Falkland Islands, 1763-2013 R. Trevor Wilson1 Abstract A very few cattle were landed on the Falkland by the French in 1763, later augmented by about 60 head by the Spanish. Unoccupied from 1770 to 1820, reports then indicated 20,000 to 100,000 head roaming East Falkland. From the 1830s cattle were hunted for hides, an activity formalized through (British) Government land grants and slaughter licences. During the 1840s Government tried to attract settlers and sheep began to super cede cattle. There were occasional uncoordinated attempts to improve the genetics through introduction of “superior” breeds. An experimental farm established in the 1920s was short-lived as cattle numbers declined and sheep numbers increased. Further sporadic cattle imports were made during the mid twentieth century. Artificial insemination was introduced in the 1970s with imported British beef and dairy breed semen. A National Beef Herd was established in 1997 to breed superior cattle – mainly via artificial insemination and embryo transfer – able to produce organic or “near-organic” beef finished at 24-30 months under the harsh environment of the Falklands with a view to obtaining access to the EU market. Local farmers collectively own about 6000 cattle in small herds whose main objective is to supply household milk and beef.
