A detailed study of crustacean biodiversity in the mangrove swamps of the Cần Giờ Mangrove Biosphere Reserve, located near Ho Chi Minh City in southern Vietnam, revealed a high species diversity of tanaids.
Researchers from the IEE RAS, the Mara-Meru Nature Reserve in Kenya, and LMSU have described for the first time the vocal repertoires of adult and cub wild cheetahs from Kenya.
Radiography is one of the most promising methods for non-invasively determining the age of animals. In this study, the researchers applied it for the first time to live rodents from a wild population.
A new study, conducted by researchers from the TIINRD SB RAS and the IEE RAS, summarizes the results of nearly thirty years of fieldwork in the region (1993–2022).
Many soil animals, superficially similar, actually belong to different species. These so-called cryptic or "hidden" species play an important role in soil functioning but remain undetected by traditional research methods.
IEE RAS staff presented their papers at the "Evolutionary Biology" section. Both papers generated considerable interest and discussion, as they examined the survival characteristics of animals in urban environments.
The fox is the largest predator in Losiny Ostrov. Without predators, forest communities are incomplete, so the fox plays a significant ecological role in the urban forest.
For International Maritime Day, Alexander Supin, Doctor of Biological Sciences and chief researcher at the Sensor Systems Laboratory at the IEE RAS, spoke to Kommersant journalists about marine life.

Dear colleagues, you can find information on the results of the sections of the conference "Mammals in a Changing World: Current Issues in Theriology" (12th Congress of the V.E. Sokolov Theriological Society of the Russian Academy of Sciences) at the link.
We invite Institute staff and graduate students to join our course on data analysis using Python.
The course is designed to guide students through the entire data science process, from initial tool setup to visualizing results.
The Russian Science Foundation is accepting applications for a competition for fundamental and exploratory genetic research projects, at the request of the President of Russia and world-class scientific laboratories. Competitions have also been announced to extend the deadlines for projects supported by RSF grants in 2023, for research conducted by research groups led by young scientists, and for support of Russian-Belarusian research teams jointly with the Belarusian Republican Foundation for Fundamental Research (BRFFR).
We invite you to participate in a scientific conference dedicated to the 90th anniversary of the birth of Academician Yuri Petrovich Altukhov (October 11, 1936 – October 27, 2006) and continuing the series of traditional population genetics forums held in 2011, 2017, and 2022.
