Protected area coverage of the full annual cycle of migratory butterflies. [PDF]
Conserv BiolAbstract Effective conservation of migratory species relies on habitat protection throughout their annual cycle. Although protected areas (PAs) play a central role in conservation, their effectiveness at conserving habitats across the annual cycle of migratory species has rarely been assessed.

Phenology and foraging bias contribute to sex-specific foraging patterns in the rare declining butterfly Argynnis idalia idalia. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2023 Sex‐specific foraging behavior is an understudied driver of intraspecific variation in plant–pollinator relationships. We examined 21 years of flower visitation in the rare, declining butterfly Argynnis idalia idalia in order to determine the role that both phenology and visitation bias play in driving differences between male and female floral ...

Is there a massive glacial–Holocene flora continuity in Central Europe?
Biological Reviews, Volume 98, Issue 6, Page 2307-2319, December 2023., 2023 ABSTRACT The prevailing paradigm about the Quaternary ecological and evolutionary history of Central European ecosystems is that they were repeatedly impoverished by regional extinctions of most species during the glacial periods, followed by massive recolonizations from southern and eastern refugia during interglacial periods.

European Habitats Directive has fostered monitoring but not prevented species declines
Conservation Letters, Volume 16, Issue 3, May/June 2023., 2023 Abstract Strong biodiversity declines have been reported across the European Union, especially in insects, despite conservation policy such as the Habitats Directive that aims to halt biodiversity loss. Using 50 years of observational data, we examined indicators for the goals of the Directive in terms of improving monitoring efforts and occupancy ...

Spelling correctness as a witness of changing documentary culture in Tuscia (eighth–ninth centuries)
Early Medieval Europe, Volume 31, Issue 2, Page 220-251, May 2023., 2023 This paper discusses the evolution of documentary culture in early medieval Tuscia by quantitatively examining the Latin spelling of charter scribes in relation to the following factors: time, the distinction between the formulaic and non‐formulaic parts of the document, the scribe’s domicile, the scribe’s professional status, and the document type ...
