Neelipleona and Symphypleona (Collembola) from a Sampling in the Mesovoid Shallow Substratum of the Sierra de Guadarrama National Park (Madrid and Segovia, Spain): Taxonomy and Biogeography [PDF]
Insects, 2021 Megalothorax minimus (Neelidae) and Sphaeridia pumilis (Sminthurididae) had already been identified in surface sampling from Sierra de Guadarrama. In Europe, Sminthurinus gisini (Katiannidae) seems to be associated with environments at specific altitudes,

Response and resilience of karst subterranean estuary communities to precipitation impacts. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2023 Heavy precipitation events caused a halocline shift resulting in a mortality event at a karst subterranean estuary, affecting the fauna inhabiting under the halocline (dotted white line) at the marine groundwater layer (a‐b). Overall, marine species (c‐e) inhabiting the caves were impacted, and cave‐adapted fauna (f‐i) remain resilient to short‐term ...

Climatic niche differences among Zootoca vivipara clades with different parity modes: implications for the evolution and maintenance of viviparity [PDF]
Frontiers in Zoology, 2021 Parity mode (oviparity/viviparity) importantly affects the ecology, morphology, physiology, biogeography and evolution of organisms. The main hypotheses explaining the evolution and maintenance of viviparity are based on bioclimatic predictions and also ...

Unexpected high subterranean biodiversity on rock glaciers threatened by global warming [PDF]
Scientific ReportsGlobal warming is dramatically changing high-alpine plant and animal communities. Rock glaciers serve as habitats for cold-adapted organisms. However, the diversity of subterranean organisms in rock glaciers is still insufficiently understood.

Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 1, February 2023., 2023 Abstract Insights into declines in ecosystem resilience and their causes and effects can inform preemptive action to avoid ecosystem collapse and loss of biodiversity, ecosystem services, and human well‐being. Empirical studies of ecosystem collapse are rare and hampered by ecosystem complexity, nonlinear and lagged responses, and interactions across ...

Challenges of and opportunities for protecting European soil biodiversity
Conservation Biology, Volume 36, Issue 5, October 2022., 2022 Abstract Soil biodiversity and related ecosystem functions are neglected in most biodiversity assessments and nature conservation actions. We examined how society, and particularly policy makers, have addressed these factors worldwide with a focus on Europe and explored the role of soils in nature conservation in Germany as an example. We reviewed past
