Subterranean systems provide a suitable overwintering habitat for Salamandra salamandra

International Journal of Speleology, 2017
The fire salamander (Salamandra salamandra) has been repeatedly noted to occur in natural and artificial subterranean systems. Despite the obvious connection of this species with underground shelters, their level of dependence and importance to the ...

Behavioural underpinning of mito-nuclear discordances: insights from fire salamanders. [PDF]

R Soc Open Sci
Mito-nuclear discordances across secondary contact zones have been described in a wide range of organisms. They consist of a spatial mismatch between nuclear and mitochondrial genomes in terms of location and extension of the contact zone between distinct evolutionary lineages.

Using value of information in recovery planning for imperiled species

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Conservation planning often employs predictive models to prioritize alternative actions, but uncertainty related to lack of data or uncertainty in the influence of global change may erode confidence in predictions. Managers must choose between investing time and money to gather more information, or implementing conservation actions immediately, despite

Spatiotemporal reproductive strategies in the fire salamander: a model and empirical test [PDF]

Behavioral Ecology, 2011
Although density-dependent processes and the risk of pool desiccation dominate temporary pool ecology literature, the spreading of larvae across pools and time as a strategy for managing these central stress factors has not been rigorously addressed as an adaptive mechanism.

Factors determining the dorsal coloration pattern of aposematic salamanders

Scientific Reports, 2022
Aposematic bright colors have a key role for animal defense and can be expressed through metabolic production or by acquiring pigments from diet. Aposematic coloration can be related to both local adaptations and availability of trophic resources.

Targeting Red spruce restoration sites by geospatial analysis of priority, connectivity, and restoration actions in the Mount Rogers Highlands, Virginia, United States

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Southern Appalachian Red spruce‐Fraser fir forests are globally imperiled ecosystems with high potential for restoration under current climate and atmospheric pollution conditions. Geospatially informed site selection is an important step toward effective and lasting restoration.

Variability of seasonal trophic niche in two sympatric salamanders, the Italian cave salamander and the Fire salamander

, 2023
The trophic niche is one of the most important ecological traits for any species, as it provides information about trophic position in a food web, preference on foraging sites, intra- and interspecific interactions. In this study we examined seasonal variations in the diet composition of two sympatric salamanders from central Italy, the Italian cave ...

Carrion ecology: concepts, interdisciplinary synthesis, and perspectives

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 6, Page 2839-2873, December 2026.
ABSTRACT Carrion is a ubiquitous resource in both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, yet it has long been overlooked in ecological research. Over the past two decades, studies on carrion and the many organisms that exploit it have flourished, revealing not only wide‐ranging ecological functions but also significance far beyond ecology.
