Biology, ecology, and conservation of the Italian hare Lepus corsicanus: a review

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
The Italian hare Lepus corsicanus, an endemic lagomorph of Italy, serves as a critical case study in evolutionary biology and conservation. Once taxonomically debated, modern genetic and morphological analyses confirm its status as a distinct Pleistocene lineage restricted to the central‐southern Italian Peninsula and Sicily.

Submerged geomorphic record of Quaternary palaeoshorelines: terraces and clinothems along a shelf‐edge in the Žirje Archipelago, Adriatic Sea

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
Numerous studies have shown that during the Quaternary there were substantial fluctuations in sea level in response to glacial–interglacial climate variability, reaching lowstand positions up to 134 m below the present sea level (b.s.l.). These fluctuations have had a strong influence on the morphology of shallow shelf seas, which preserve evidence of ...

Testing the morphology‐ and intuition‐based taxonomic hypotheses using integrative approach: unexpected discovery of triplet of sibling species within a widespread Eurasian butterfly, Hyponephele lycaon

open access: yesCladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract In well‐studied groups of organisms, the taxonomic landscape can be very complex, with several alternative classifications describing diversity within the same set of populations. For example, three hypotheses have previously been proposed to describe the taxonomy of the common and widespread Eurasian Dusky Meadow Brown butterfly, Hyponephele ...
