Specialized #ecological niches can represent evolutionary traps that increase extinction risk when environments change. The consumption of coral tissue, mucus, and skeleton is a rare feeding niche despite the abundance of #coral on reefs, which raises questions about the evolutionary consequences of this dietary specialization. In this study, we used phylogenetic comparative methods, micro-CT scanning, and scanning electron #microscopy to explore the evolutionary history of corallivory across reef fishes and compare feeding #morphology across species within a major clade of corallivorous species (Chaetodontidae) that vary in their coral consumption. We show that obligate corallivory has evolved independently at least 17 times but is an evolutionary “dead end” for most reef fish species. Early origination of facultative corallivory may have contributed to the success of butterflyfishes, the predominant clade of coral-feeding fishes, as they diversified in competitive reef environments. Obligate and facultative butterflyfish #species differ primarily in dental morphology while overall cranial traits are largely similar between groups. Coral feeding requires continuous foraging with narrow energetic margins, and climate-driven disturbances occur markedly faster than evolutionary transitions away from corallivory. This temporal mismatch between change at ecological and evolutionary timescales subjects corallivorous fishes to heightened vulnerability as climate-driven disturbances increase in frequency and severity.

Hey Aden,
I came across your video yesterday and thank you!
I'm so happy that more people are doing this. I'm wondering if you've watched Karl from IoB video on Hank Green and his connection to ControlAI aka EA (Effective Altruism).

The whole extinction message also mentioned in that YT video by IoB is being addressed by some of the authors of the Stochastic Parrot paper through the akronym and term TESCREALism coined by @timnitgebru.blacksky.app founder of DAIR and @xriskology.bsky.social.

are often seen by AI ethics (not Safety) people as a means of regulatory and narrative capture. I’m sourcing IoB ALOT, but not for lack of other resources, but rather because he explains the problematic well and it’s a good introductory starting point to the subject. This expands the hypetube video.

Anatomical Atlas and Three-Dimensional Musculoskeletal Model of the Flight Apparatus in the Southern Screamer (Anseriformes: Chauna torquata)

#science #fossils #avian #birds
The three bird species within the family Anhimidae (screamers) are of great interest to the big picture of avian evolution due to both their #phylogenetic position and their unusual combination of features. As screamers are early diverging members of Anseriformes (#waterfowl), which itself is an early diverging clade within the extant bird radiation, their anatomy may help shed light on that of the common ancestor of both Anseriformes and crown-group birds as a whole. To reveal new information about the wing anatomy of anhimids, we generated a three-dimensional musculoskeletal model of the flight apparatus of the extant Southern Screamer (Chauna torquata) using diffusible iodine-based contrast-enhanced computed #tomography (#diceCT). We found that the wing muscle anatomy of Chauna reflects the soaring flight style employed by anhimids, as opposed to the rapid continuous wingbeats used by most other #anseriforms. In Chauna, this manifests as a more distal insertion of the pectoralis muscle on the humerus to facilitate slower, stronger wingbeats, and a reduction in the length of antebrachial muscle origins and insertions that serves to reduce the distal inertia of the wing. Our three-dimensional dataset represents a typical musculoskeletal system of a bird with strong flight capabilities. This, combined with our observation that most flight-related muscles in Chauna leave recognizable #osteological correlates associated with their attachments to the skeleton, means that this work can help form a basis for future comparative studies of the #avian #musculoskeletal system, with implications for reconstructing the flight apparatus of #fossil #birds.

HISD BOM President Ric Campo is a realestate developer and ECOB and CEO of Camden Property Trust. You may be familiar with that name in association with the RealPage price fixing to screw renters federal lawsuit (which just settled for 53 mil).

Campo put 16 HISD properties up for sale to his buds
"I've alwavs said - in public and to the elected trustees - that we're working ourselves out of a iob, and we're happy to do it,' Campo told the Tribune. "What we really want to make sure happens is that we have a great, smooth transition, and that the elected trustees, when they do come back, are prepared and have the information they need to do the best job they can." Trustees in districts under such state intervention remain in office but do not have the power to vote on anything: including to pass a budget or change board policy. The state takeover of HISD began in 2023, and Morath already planned to announce the timeline for the district to return to elected control by June.
