Cover: Above Ctenophorus femoralis eyeballs the camera, while below Ctenophorus caudicinctus is shown in full bipedal flight (photos by Christofer J. Clemente). These Australian dragon lizards are one group of animals capable of bipedal locomotion, along with birds, dinosaurs and primates. Running bipedally was positively related to body size and the proximity of the body centre of mass to the hip, but negatively related to running endurance. Speed was not higher for bipedal strides, but acceleration was. For these lizards, bipedal running seems to occur when lizards accelerate over a certain threshold (see article by Clemente et al., pp. 2058-2065). - PDF Icon PDF LinkTable of contents

Inside the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change with Hans-Otto Pörtner
During the past two decades, Hans-Otto Pörtner has steered climate change policy as a co-Chair of IPCC Working Group II. He tells us about the experience in this Perspective.
Photosynthesis turns symbiotic sea anemone's tentacles toward sun
Snakelocks sea anemones point their tentacles, packed with symbiotic algae, toward the sun so their lodgers can photosynthesize, and now Vengamanaidu Modepalli & colleagues have discovered that photosynthesis by the algae guides their host's tentacles towards the sun.
