COMMENTS ON TRIASSIC PTEROSAURS WITH A COMMENTARY ON THE "ONTOGENETIC STAGES" OF KELLNER (2015) AND THE VALIDITY OF BERGAMODACTYLUS WILDI

COMMENTS ON TRIASSIC PTEROSAURS WITH A COMMENTARY ON THE "ONTOGENETIC STAGES" OF KELLNER (2015) AND THE VALIDITY OF BERGAMODACTYLUS WILDI

Six stages (OS1-6) were identified by Kellner (2015) to establish the ontogeny of a given pterosaur fossil.These were used to support the erection of several new Triassic taxa including Bergamodactylus wildi, which is based on a single specimen (MPUM EXTRA VIRG OLIVE OIL 6009) from the Norian of Lombardy, Italy.However, those ontogenetic stages are

Predicting the current and future potential distributions of lymphatic filariasis in Africa using maximum entropy ecological niche modelling.

Modelling the spatial distributions of human parasite species Chromium is crucial to understanding the environmental determinants of infection as well as for guiding the planning of control programmes.Here, we use ecological niche modelling to map the current potential distribution of the macroparasitic disease, lymphatic filariasis (LF), in Africa
