Species traits modulate ecological release in island red devil spiders (Araneae: Dysderidae)
Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.We studied the species ability to undergo an ecological release process in the red devil spiders (Araneae: Dysderidae) when colonising species‐depauperate environments, focusing on different aspects of their niche. We have found that the ability to expand their niche is highly dependent on the species trophic strategy, with specialist species being ...

Molecular Ecology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Accurate identification of evolutionarily significant units of rare and threatened organisms provides a foundation for effective management and conservation. Up to seven subspecies of the critically endangered Yellow‐crested Cockatoo (Cacatua sulphurea) have been described, four of which were commonly recognised pre‐2014.

Phylogeography of higher Diptera in glacial and postglacial grasslands in western North America
BMC Ecology, 2019 Background Pleistocene glaciations have had an important impact on the species distribution and community composition of the North American biota. Species survived these glacial cycles south of the ice sheets and/or in other refugia, such as Beringia. In
