First record of Plocama brevifolia in Europe (province of Cadiz, Spain) and taxonomic and ecological remarks

open access: yesMediterranean Botany
We report the presence of Plocama brevifolia (Rubiaceae) in the southwest of the Iberian Peninsula (province of Cadiz, Spain). This discovery is not only the first record of the species in the Iberian Peninsula, but also in Europe. We provide ecological

Spatial Dynamics of Tourism Sustainability in EU Member States

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study introduces a synthetic indicator of tourism sustainability for the EU, bridging the gap between institutional monitoring and academic research. By applying the PROMETHEE II method to rank the 27 Member States in 2019 and 2023, the research transforms static data into a dynamic roadmap of post‐pandemic recovery. The findings reveal a

Redescription and DNA barcoding of Agriphila hispanodeliella Błeszyński, 1959, bona sp., stat. rev. from the Iberian Peninsula (Lepidoptera, Pyraloidea, Crambinae) [PDF]

open access: yesNota Lepidopterologica
The crambid moth Agriphila hispanodeliella Błeszyński, 1959, bona sp., stat. rev. is redescribed from the southern part of the Iberian Peninsula for the first time since its original description as a subspecies of Agriphila deliella (Hübner, 1813).

How to stay wild in a highly domesticated landscape? Spatiotemporal behaviour of wolves in Germany

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Wild animals can adapt to the increasing presence of humans by either becoming accustomed to it or by avoiding humans by spatiotemporal separation. The return of the wolf to the German lowlands raised the opportunity to study wolf behaviour in one of the most densely populated and fragmented countries in Europe, in an area where topography offers no ...

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 ...

Patterns of genetic differentiation and the footprints of historical migrations in the Iberian Peninsula

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
The Iberian Peninsula has a complex history. Here, the authors analyse the genetic structure of the modern Iberian population at fine scale, revealing historical population movements associated with the time of Muslim rule.

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.

Annotated checklist of brachyuran crabs (Crustacea: Decapoda) of the Iberian Peninsula (SW Europe)

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2015
Almost 50 years have passed since a group of reputed carcinologists (viz. Lipke B. Holthuis, Isabella Gordon and Jacques Forest) finished the posthumous work of Ricardo Zariquiey Álvarez (1968) on decapod crustaceans of the Iberian Peninsula. No lists of

High‐dimensional elementomes outperform CNP models in explaining photosynthetic traits

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Links between plant elementomes (i.e. the concentration of chemical elements in plant tissue) and functional traits have the potential to improve predictions of plant physiological performance and ecosystem processes, and their response to environmental change.

Extreme Precipitation Events in Summer in the Iberian Peninsula and Its Relationship With Atmospheric Rivers

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2018
This study identifies and characterizes the importance of the Atmospheric Rivers in the extreme precipitation episodes that strike the Iberian Peninsula and Portugal during the extended summer months (April to September) between 1950 and 2007.
