First Taxonomically Curated DNA Barcode Reference Library for Polish Myriapods Fills an Important Knowledge Gap for Soil Invertebrates in Central Europe, Part I: Millipedes (Myriapoda: Diplopoda) [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.DNA barcoding enabled the creation of the first large, taxonomically verified barcode library for Polish millipedes, covering 981 individuals and 58 species (62% of the national fauna), with 468 COI sequences. The study reveals potential cryptic diversity, shifts in the Polish diplopod fauna and documents Melogona broelemanni as a species newly ...

Spatiotemporal Diversification of Forest Understorey Species Reveals the Existence of Multiple Pleistocene Forest Refugia in Central Europe [PDF]
Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT During Pleistocene cold stages, European temperate forests were not only restricted to refugia in the southern European peninsulas. Rather, there is increasing evidence for the survival of trees also in isolated patches further north, termed ‘northern refugia’.

Two Closely Related Butterflies Show Pseudo‐Concordant Patterns of Geographic Differentiation in a Heterogeneous Mountain Region [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.Phylogeographic pseudo‐concordance among species—coincident spatial structuring coupled with differing levels of intraspecific differentiation—has rarely been documented in heterogeneous regions. We report a clear case in two mountain butterfly species and show how the high density of spatial sampling and the integration of phenotypic and genomic ...

Cave airflow mechanism of a crevice-type cave: A case study from Czechia
International Journal of Speleology, 2020 At present, crevice-type caves are investigated mainly by means of geomorphic and geophysical methods. Microclimatic research of this type of caves is underrepresented and is often limited to temperature and humidity measurement only.

Identification and characterization of ancient turbidite system lobes: an example from area Piwniczna – Muszyna, Poland [PDF]
Acta Montanistica Slovaca, 2008 The analysis of a deep-marine system relies heavily on the identification of the type and distribution of architectural elements(e.g. channels, lobes) within the system.

A Teutonic stronghold in the Carpathian Mountains [PDF]
Cercetări Arheologice, 2023 The HiLands Project (2018-2022) brought the opportunity to investigate several main communication corridors within the Curvature Carpathians. At the northern end of Rucăr-Bran Pass we had a great surprise, finding in the woods three strongholds, just one

The Cyrilka Cave—the longest crevice-type cave in Czechia: structural controls, genesis, and age
International Journal of Speleology, 2018 The Cyrilka Cave is the second longest pseudokarst cave and the longest crevice-type cave in Czechia. Developed within the headscarp area of a deep-seated landslide, the cave became a focus of scientific research in recent years when new passages were ...

Downstream fining trends of gravel bar sediments: a case study of Czech Carpathian rivers
Acta Universitatis Carolinae Geographica, 2020 This study examines downstream grain-size trends in gravel bars, a typical feature of natural gravel-bed rivers, from two neighbouring heavily channelized rivers: the Lubina River and the Ondřejnice River draining the Czech part of the Outer Western ...
