Hybridization and extensive mitochondrial introgression among fire salamanders in peninsular Italy [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2018
Discordance between mitochondrial and nuclear patterns of population genetic structure is providing key insights into the eco-evolutionary dynamics between and within species, and their assessment is highly relevant to biodiversity monitoring practices ...

When aposematism is not enough: Exotic Rattus rattus shows no mercy for carcasses of Salamandra salamandra in insular populations [PDF]

Ecology and Evolution
Predator–prey interaction is a major force driving natural selection. Yet, the identification of species preying on, or consuming, aposematic species is largely unknown.

Citizen science data reveals widespread sexual dichromatism in the European fire salamander (Salamandra salamandra) [PDF]

BMC Ecology and Evolution
Background Conspicuous color patterns are traditionally believed to advertise the toxicity of prey to potential predators. However, many aposematic species show drastic variation in coloration, indicating the possibility of other functions of coloration ...

Behavioural underpinning of mito-nuclear discordances: insights from fire salamanders [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science
Mito-nuclear discordances across secondary contact zones have been described in a wide range of organisms. They consist of a spatial mismatch between nuclear and mitochondrial genomes in terms of location and extension of the contact zone between ...
