Animal Conservation, EarlyView.In an urban‐adjacent forested area, we investigated the spatial and temporal distribution of the wild mammal community in relation to day‐to‐day fluctuations of human presence occurring between working days and weekends. We deployed 52 camera‐traps systematically within an EU Natura 2000 area located within the metropolitan area of Florence, central ...

Morphometric and Paleobiological Insights Into Pleistocene Sicilian Wolf Populations
Acta Zoologica, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The Pleistocene wolves (Canis lupus) from Sicily represent one of the few known insular populations of this species from that time period. Despite their potential relevance for understanding carnivore adaptations in insular contexts, no dedicated study has previously investigated their morphology and evolutionary significance.

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 8, August 2026.Climate change is increasingly impacting arboreal mammals, yet these effects vary across regions and taxa, and global syntheses to inform conservation priorities remain limited. This study presents the first global synthesis of climate change impacts on arboreal mammals using a systematic review, meta‐analysis, and bibliometric analysis.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.This study presents the complete mitochondrial genomes of Nannospalax nehringi and N. turcicus from Türkiye and evaluates their phylogenetic relationships within Spalacidae. Both genomes exhibited conserved structure, and phylogenetic analyses using ML and BI approaches supported subfamily monophyly and a well‐supported clade for the two species ...

Communal nesting in the garden dormouse (Eliomys quercinus) [PDF]
Behavioural Processes, 2017 Communal nesting has been described in many rodents including some dormouse species. In this study, we report the existence of this reproductive strategy in the garden dormouse Eliomys quercinus. Data was recorded by checking natural nests and nest-boxes from 2003 to 2013 in SE Spain.
