Revisiting a Small Mediterranean Island: How Vegetation has Changed in the Last 15 Years
ABSTRACT Questions The resurvey of historical vegetation plots has become a fundamental methodology in ecological research, as it provides a unique opportunity to estimate vegetation and environmental changes over time. Small islands are among the ecosystems where the effects of anthropogenic processes may be more detectable and less predictable.

The Use of Ciliates (Ciliophora) for Bioassay of the Toxicity of Insecticides
Abstract Field and laboratory experiments have been carried out to determine the degree of toxicity in the soil community of ciliates of two insecticides: “Confidor Extra” and “Decis Profi” at concentrations of 80 mg/l, 50mg/l and 25mg/l. Laboratory experiments were performed with the soil ciliates species Colpoda cucullus (Müller, 1773).

ABSTRACT Active ecological restoration of Mediterranean semi‐natural grasslands faces challenges such as limited seed dispersal and poor establishment of dominant perennial species. The aim of our study was therefore to test different seedling type along a gradient of nature‐based solutions including a commercial seed mixture with seeds of regional ...

Typification of the genus Dileptus Dujardin, 1841 (Ciliophora, Rhynchostomatia)
In their monograph of the dileptids, Vďačný and Foissner (2012) could not clarify the type species of the genus DileptusDujardin, 1841. Thus, they suggested that the problem be referred to the International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature. However, recently we discovered that Dujardin (1841) has originally typified Dileptus with Amphileptus anser
