TL;DR: This study supports PPD in shaping species‐level diversity compared to QCC‐driven changes at the intraspecific level for Spilogale, similar to the patterns reported for other small mammals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ashworthius Patriciapilittae n. sp. (Trichostrongyloidea: Haemonchinae), an abomasal nematode in Odocoileus virginianus from Costa Rica, and a new record for species of the genus in the Western Hemisphere.
TL;DR: The discovery of A. patriciapilittae emphasizes the continued need for survey and inventory to define the structure and distribution of parasite faunas in wild and domestic ruminants from the Nearctic and Neotropical regions.

Journal ArticleDOI
The impact on archaeology of radiocarbon dating by accelerator mass spectrometry
TL;DR: Radiocarbon dating by accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) differs fundamentally from conventional 14 C dating because it is based on direct determination of the ratio of 14 C : 12 C atoms rather than on counting the radioactivity of 14C.
Journal ArticleDOI
