Burrow morphology of Uca uruguayensis and Uca leptodactylus (Decapoda: Ocypodidae) from a subtropical mangrove forest in the western Atlantic
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2013-09-01)
The continuous excavation of burrows by fiddler crabs generates bioturbation in the sediment, which can be estimated from burrow morphology. The aim of the present study was to describe the burrow morphology of Uca ...
Large mammal burrows in late Miocene calcic paleosols from central Argentina: Paleoenvironment, taphonomy and producers
(PeerJ Inc., 2018-05)
Large cylindrical sediment-filled structures interpreted as mammal burrows occur within the loess-paleosol sequence of the late Miocene Cerro Azul Formation of central Argentina. A total of 115 burrow fills from three ...
Neoichnology of mygalomorph spiders: Improving the recognition of spider burrows in the geological record
(Elsevier B.V., 2021-06-01)
The female Mygalomorphae spiders are sedentary and long-lived organisms that spend most of their lives inside their burrows. Neoichnological studies provide relevant information that can help the recognition of these ...
Large tetrapod burrows from the Middle Triassic of Argentina: A behavioural adaptation to seasonal semi-arid climate?
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2013-04)
We report the discovery of large burrow casts in the early Middle Triassic Tarjados Formation, at Talampaya National Park, north-western Argentina. Facies analysis indicates the burrows are preserved in sandbars deposited ...
Wolf spider burrows from a modern saline sandflat in central Argentina: Morphology, taphonomy and clues for recognition of fossil examples
(PeerJ Inc., 2018-06)
Pavocosa sp. (Lycosidae) burrows found in an open sparsely vegetated area on the edge of the Gran Salitral saline lake, in central Argentina, are described. Burrows were studied by capturing the occupant and casting them ...
Extended amplification of acoustic signals by amphibian burrows
(Springer Verlag, 2016)
© 2016, Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.Animals relying on acoustic signals for communication must cope with the constraints imposed by the environment for sound propagation. A resource to improve signal broadcast is the ...
Parallel computation of the Burrows Wheeler Transform in compact space
(Elsevier, 2020)
The Burrows-Wheeler Transform (BWT) has become since its introduction a key tool for representing large text collections in compressed space while supporting indexed searching: on a text of length n over an alphabet of ...
Distribution and use of burrows and tunnels of Chaetophractus villosus (Mammalia, Xenarthra) in the eastern Argentinean pampas
(Springer, 2005-03)
Burrows and tunnels built by Chaetophractus villosus (Desmarest, 1804) (hairy armadillo) were studied in a farming area located in the Argentinean pampas, Buenos Aires Province, Argentina. Fifty-six structures were selected ...
