Evaluating use of extant species response to invasive predator control as an indicator of functional eradication to support species reintroductions

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 8, August 2026.
The removal of brown treesnakes resulted in an increase in the number of lizards already present that were counted in a treated area. We used this increase as a trigger to reintroduce three lizard species no longer present in the area, likely due to predation by the snake. Two out of those three species were found to have established. Abstract Invasive

Where Lineages Persist: Phylogenetic Patterns and Evolutionary Vulnerability in South Africa's Herpetofauna

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Conservation under the current global biodiversity crisis demands strategic prioritisation to maximise the impact of limited resources. This study aims to integrate evolutionary history, an often‐overlooked component of biodiversity, alongside extinction risk to identify priority species and regions, assessing both the feasibility and ...

First occurrences of Trionychidae (Testudines, Cryptodira) from the Miocene of Poland: Detailed cranial anatomy and biogeographic implications

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 249, Issue 2, Page 314-337, August 2026.
Fossil finds from three Middle Miocene sites in Poland reveal the northernmost known presence of trionychid turtles in Europe, tentatively identified as Trionyx cf. vindobonensis, suggesting a warmer climate that supported thermophilic species in Central Europe during this period. Abstract Modern trionychids (Testudines, Cryptodira) have a pan‐tropical

Using multiplatform LiDAR to identify relationships between vegetation structure and the abundance and diversity of woodland reptiles and amphibians

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation
Remotely sensed measures of vegetation structure have been shown to explain patterns in the occurrence and diversity of several animal taxa, including birds, mammals, and invertebrates.
