    ABSTRACT

    The Gray Fossil Site (GFS), an early Pliocene aged site in northeastern Tennessee, is one of the richest Cenozoic localities in the eastern United States. To date, thousands of micro-vertebrate specimens have been collected, but few small mammals have been identified and thoroughly studied. This study describes the first talpid specimens recovered from the GFS, which represent four talpid species (Parascalops grayensis sp. nov., Neurotrichus sp., Mioscalops sp., and a new stem desman, Magnatalpa fumamons gen. et sp. nov.).

    The fossil taxa were quantitatively compared to a wide range of extant and extinct moles using a geometric morphometric analysis of humeri shape. Humeral morphology has commonly been used to diagnose talpid species and study their relationships. Quantitative analysis shows humerus shape is highly reflective of locomotor ecology in extant talpids, highlighting convergence among highly fossorial clades, and allows ecological inferences for fossil species. Hierarchical cluster analysis using morphometric data allowed examination of morphological similarity among taxa and helped to secondarily support taxonomic designations for the Gray Fossil Site taxa. The resulting phenogram shows strong similarity to the most up-to-date molecular cladogram and actually matched phylogenetic relationships substantially better than any morphological cladistic analyses to date. All six recognized tribes were represented on the cluster analysis phenograms, all of the shrew moles (Scaptonychini, Urotrichini, and Neurotrichini) clustered

    So, who was the mole? Did the eponymous returnee survive the numerous threats to her life? And what was with all of those paper birds? Here's what went down in the eventful finale.

    Did Cornelia go rogue?

    In the previous episode's cliffhanger, we saw Cornelia Gray (Clarkson) blowing the brains out of the Korea infiltrator she was tasked with rescuing. But unlike her shell-shocked colleague Sara (Lydia West), who witnessed the execution first-hand, boss Tagg (Rupert Everett) didn't seem too surprised about the development.

    "Not everything is black and white," he told Sara on her return, revealing that, thanks to an experimental interrogation tactic known as IEP, the man in question was about to leak information that would have put millions of lives at risk.

    You've been framed

    On the warpath after Cornelia burned his house down while searching for incriminating evidence, ex-lover operative Chase (Shawn Doyle) decided to frame her by putting a bullet in the head of Sara's poor husband Andy (Benjamin Sutherland).

    Cornelia, of course, had already fatally poisoned Sara's secret agent stepmother Tessa (Fiona Highet) and was the prime suspect for the death of her father, too. So it was relatively easy for the wicked Chase to convince his grief-stricken co-worker that the ruthless assassin was responsible. And soon she, too, was baying for blood.

    Of course, Cornelia's no stranger to a bit of framing herself. She had already doctored snaps of field agent Gold (Wendy Crewson) fraternising with Russian big baddie Orlov for potential leverage. And on discovering Gold had just been drugged – but not fatally, as intended – by Tagg's right-hand man Rousseau (Tim Rozon) over those photos, she decided to make the latter

    Atypical Moles & Your Skin

    The Facts. The Risks. How They Affect You.

    12xTHE RISK OF
    MELANOMA

    Atypical moles, also known as dysplastic nevi, are unusual-looking moles that have irregular features under the microscope. Though benign, they are worth more of your attention because individuals with atypical moles are at increased risk for melanoma, a dangerous skin cancer.

    An atypical mole can occur anywhere on the body. The appearance of these moles can vary greatly. The best advice is to know your skin. Keep track of any and all moles you may have. This gives you the best chance to spot anything new, changing or unusual and bring it to the attention of your dermatologist.

    • An atypical mole is not a skin cancer but having these moles is a risk factor for developing melanoma.
    • Although rare, melanoma can arise in association with atypical moles. That is why it is important to be aware of these moles, get them checked by your dermatologist, and watch out for changing moles.
    • If you have atypical moles plus a family history of melanoma, you have an increased risk of developing melanoma.
    • If you have any common melanoma risk factors plus atypical moles, you must be particularly watchful:
      • Fair skin, light eyes or hair
      • Freckles
      • Many moles
      • A personal or family history of melanoma or nonmelanoma skin cancer
      • Photosensitivity
      • Inability to tan
      • Repeated and intermittent sunburns

    It’s important to note that even without a family history of melanoma, if you have atypical moles, you have an elevated risk of developing melanoma.

    How to spot an atypical mole

    At first glance, it can be tricky to see how an atypical mole differs from a normal mole. Below are some warning signs to watch for.

    Range map of the subfamilies of Chrysochloridae

    Golden moles are small insectivorous burrowing mammalsendemic to Sub-Saharan Africa. They comprise the family Chrysochloridae (the only family in the suborder Chrysochloridea) and as such they are taxonomically distinct from the true moles, family Talpidae, and other mole-like families, all of which, to various degrees, they resemble as a result of evolutionary convergence. There are 21 species. Some (e.g., Chrysochloris asiatica, Amblysomus hottentotus) are relatively common, whereas others (e.g., species of Chrysospalax, Cryptochloris, Neamblysomus) are rare and endangered.

    Taxonomy

    Despite their extreme evolutionary convergence with moles, their closest relatives are the otter shrews and tenrecs. They are more distantly related to other insectivorous African mammals such as aardvarks and elephant shrews, and even more distantly related to elephants and sirenians.
