Assessing genetic diversity in a reintroduced Mediterranean griffon vulture Gyps fulvus population to inform long‐term conservation management

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Reintroductions play a key role in conservation biology. Their long‐term success strongly depends on maximizing the genetic diversity of founders, as well as on ensuring ecological connectivity with adjacent populations. Accordingly, evaluating the conservation status of reintroduced populations to limit the loss of their genetic diversity requires ...

Biology, ecology, and conservation of the Italian hare Lepus corsicanus: a review

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
The Italian hare Lepus corsicanus, an endemic lagomorph of Italy, serves as a critical case study in evolutionary biology and conservation. Once taxonomically debated, modern genetic and morphological analyses confirm its status as a distinct Pleistocene lineage restricted to the central‐southern Italian Peninsula and Sicily.

Cryptic variation within and among islands in the ultraviolet reflectance of lizard throat coloration

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Identifying the existence of ‘cryptic’ morphs is critical in animal ecology for providing a basis for accurately testing links between phenotype and environment. This study identifies the existence of previously undocumented variation in UV reflectance in Aegean wall lizards that likely has novel behavioural and evolutionary implications within this ...

Historical biogeography and systematics of yellow-bellied toads (Bombina variegata), with the description of a new subspecies from the Balkans [PDF]

open access: yesVertebrate Zoology
The Balkan Peninsula hosts a great proportion of Europe’s biodiversity, and this is well illustrated by amphibian richness and endemism. Among them, the yellow-bellied toad Bombina variegata has been a model in ecology and evolution, but several aspects ...
