The nearly complete mitochondrial genomes of four bumblebee species (Bombus sibiricus, Bombus asiaticus, Bombus pyrosoma, and Bombus kashmirensis) were sequenced.Each of the four mitogenomes contained 38 sequence elements including 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA Remote Control (tRNA) genes, two ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, and an AT
For orangutans, the largest predominantly arboreal primates, discontinuous canopy presents a particular challenge.The shortest gaps between trees lie between thin peripheral branches, which offer the least stability to large animals.The affordances of the forest canopy experienced by orangutans of different ages however, must vary substantially as
