Land snail successions in the lower Rhône valley allow us to reconstruct the postglacial recolonization. From the Lateglacial period onwards, Mediterranean steppe communities appeared. The arrival of forest taxa was significantly delayed by aridity. The question of glacial refugia, both local and distant, primarily concerned Mediterranean species of ...

Fragmented grasslands in different landscape structures provide different opportunities for cavity‐nesting Hymenoptera

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Grassland fragmentation effects on cavity‐nesting Hymenoptera are habitat‐specific. Isolated sand steppe fragments are associated with higher brood‐cell abundance. In loess steppes, higher flower frequency increases bee brood‐cell production and parasitoid activity. Abstract The global decline in insects threatens ecosystem functioning, but the drivers

WHAT ONCE WAS SHALL BE AGAIN: PALAEOLITHIC BIFACES AT THE NEOLITHIC SITE OF GIV'AT RABI EAST

open access: yesOxford Journal of Archaeology, EarlyView.
Summary Giv'at Rabi East is a Pre‐Pottery Neolithic B site located in northern Israel, interpreted as a flint workshop. One area has been spatially identified as a ‘biface locality’; it is characterized by the presence of finished axes and preforms alongside débitage.
