Review of hyperdispersal in wildlife translocations
Conservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 1, February 2024.Abstract Species translocation is a common tool to reverse biodiversity loss, but it has a high failure rate. One factor that contributes to failure is postrelease hyperdispersal, which we define as the long‐distance movement of individuals resulting in their failure to contribute to population establishment.

Reassessing the phylogeny of Quaternary Eurasian Rhinocerotidae
Journal of Quaternary Science, 2023 ABSTRACTThe phylogenetic relationships within Eurasian Quaternary rhinoceroses is reassessed for the first time by means of Bayesian analysis. The results show Stephanorhinus as a monophyletic clade, with Pliorhinus as a sister taxon and Coelodonta as their closest relative.
