Phenology of migrating game birds in Italy based on citizen science data
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Studying the timing of the seasonal movements of migratory birds, known as migration phenology, is crucial for managing and conserving migratory bird populations. This is particularly important for migratory game bird populations in Europe because, according to the EU, migratory birds should not be hunted during their breeding season or during return ...

Insect Science, EarlyView.Strict patterns of co‐divergence have rarely been documented other than among organisms and their symbionts. In this paper, using a molecular approach, we inferr the population‐level phylogenies of a Mediterranean ant species Pheidole pallidula and its nest parasite, the obligate myrmecophilous beetle Paussus favieri. We then investigate the role of co‐

Graph tools for analysing trophic assemblies in the isotopic space
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract A large amount of information on the trophic assembly of ecosystems is summarized in the isotopic space, and metrics for extracting this information are essential. Here, we show how the characterization of the isotopic space as an isotopic‐network of organisms linked by their trophic similarity significantly expands the isotopic toolbox for ...
