“…The Duoi U'Oi cave is located in northern Vietnam, in the Man Duc village, 25 km away from the Hoà Binh city. It was excavated in 2003 by a Vietnamese-French-Japanese team (Bacon et al, 2008b). The cave is formed by two distinct and interconnected corridors about 25m long, one of which has an exceptionally well-preserved breccia.…”

Karstic sites have great potential for yielding data regarding changes in faunal communities in the Pleistocene of Southeast Asia. In this region, the majority of fossil-bearing deposits are karstic breccias, which generally demonstrate a complicated sedimentary history. While most of the mammalian assemblages recovered in these deposits are only composed of isolated teeth, their study remains essential for reconstructing palaeoecology and palaeoclimatology of the region. We analysed the assemblages recovered in three mainland and two insular karstic sites: Tam

During the past 15 years, researchers have shown a renewed interest in the study of the Plasmodium parasites that infect orangutans. Most recently, studies examined the phylogenetic relationships and divergence dates of these parasites in orangutans using complete mitochondrial DNA genomes. Questions regarding the dating of these parasites, however, remain. In the present study, we provide a new calibration model for dating the origins of Plasmodium parasites in orangutans using a modified date range for the origin of macaques in Asia. Our Bayesian phylogenetic analyses of complete Plasmodium sp. mitochondrial DNA genomes inferred two clades of plasmodia in orangutans (Pongo 1 and Pongo 2), and that these clades likely represent the previously identified species Plasmodium pitheci and Plasmodium silvaticum. However, we cannot identify which Pongo clade is representative of the morphologically described species. The most recent common ancestor of both Pongo sp. plasmodia, Plasmodium. hylobati, and Plasmodium. inui dates to 3–3.16 million years ago (mya) (95% highest posterior density [HPD]: 2.09–4.08 mya). The Pongo 1 parasite diversified 0.33–0.36 mya (95% HPD: 0.12–0.63), while the Pongo 2 parasite diversified 1.15–1.22 mya (95% HPD: 0.63–1.82 mya). It now seems likely that the monkey Plasmodium (P. inui) is the result of a host switch event from the Pongo 2 parasite to sympatric monkeys, or P. hylobati. Our new estimates for the divergence of orangutan malaria parasites, and subsequent diversification, are all several hundred thousand years later than previous Bayesian estimates.
