Mind the uncertainty: Global plate model choice impacts deep‐time palaeobiological studies
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 12, Page 3007-3019, December 2023., 2023 Abstract Global plate models (GPMs) aim to reconstruct the tectonic evolution of the Earth by modelling the motion of the plates and continents through time. These models enable palaeobiologists to study the past distribution of extinct organisms. However, different GPMs exist that vary in their partitioning of the Earth's surface and the modelling of ...

Overlooked species diversity in the hyper‐arid Sahara Desert unveiled by dryland‐adapted lizards
Journal of Biogeography, Volume 50, Issue 1, Page 101-115, January 2023., 2023 Abstract Aim Hyper‐arid sandy and rocky fields rank among the least biologically diverse habitats of the desert biome, yet knowledge of local biodiversity patterns is also extremely poor. In the Sahara Desert, palaeoclimate oscillations affected the extent of hyper‐arid habitats, but it is unclear how these dynamics determined the evolution and ...

The Bulletin of the Ecological Society of America, Volume 103, Issue 1, January 2022., 2022 Abstract Many of the early leading ecologists, especially Americans, were surveyed (primarily between 1952 and 1959) to learn what (1) initially inspired an ecological interest, (2) stimulated a major career direction in ecology, and (3) was one’s major career accomplishment.

TAXON, Volume 69, Issue 6, Page 1311-1341, December 2020., 2020 Abstract It is time to synthesize the knowledge that has been generated through more than 260 years of botanical exploration, taxonomic and, more recently, phylogenetic research throughout the world. The adoption of an updated Global Strategy for Plant Conservation (GSPC) in 2011 provided the essential impetus for the development of the World Flora ...

Ecology, Volume 101, Issue 8, August 2020., 2020 Abstract Individual diet specialization (IS) has important community‐ and population‐level implications and its ecological drivers are actively investigated. Here, to test the hypothesis that local environmental conditions may influence IS in wild populations, we analyzed the stomach contents of 395 individuals from eight populations of five allopatric

Typologie et dynamique forestières: Un exemple en Barousse (Hautes Pyrénées)
Pirineos: Revista de Ecología de Montaña, 1996 [fr] L'analyse phytoécologique de hêtraies des Pyrénées Centrales (Barousse) montre que ce sont surtout les variations des conditions hydriques qui déterminent, sur un même substrat colluvial, les différentes unités stationnelles observées.

Zoologica Scripta, Volume 49, Issue 4, Page 395-411, July 2020., 2020 Abstract Grass snakes are widely distributed across the Western Palearctic. Recent phylogeographic studies provided evidence that three distinct parapatric species exist. Two of these occur in Italy, Natrix helvetica and N. natrix, and a contact zone between both taxa has been suggested for north‐eastern Italy.
