African Journal of Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 8, December 2025.ABSTRACT Understanding patterns of biodiversity distribution is fundamental for ecology, biogeography, and conservation. However, persistent challenges arise from the inaccessibility of many regions and habitats. Subterranean environments, in particular, host highly distinctive and specialised faunal assemblages, yet their investigation is hindered by ...

International Journal of Speleology, 2013 Seasonality in surface weather results in seasonal temperature and humidity changes in caves. Ecological and physiological differences among trogloxenes, troglophiles, and troglobionts result in species-dependent responses to this variability.

Papers in Palaeontology, Volume 11, Issue 6, November/December 2025.Abstract The Villaggio del Pescatore (VdP) fossil Lagerstätte represents the most significant Upper Cretaceous (lower–middle Campanian) palaeontological locality in Italy and the Mediterranean region. We present the first systematic revision of the VdP fossil assemblage with a focus on its previously undescribed arthropod fauna, providing new insights ...

The Depositional Record, Volume 11, Issue 4, Page 1166-1195, September 2025.Five large Alpine cave systems on the Dachstein (Austria) were investigated and 35 sediment profiles or outcrops between 860 m a.s.l. and 1945 m a.s.l. were analysed. An altitude‐dependent overall stratigraphy is established and depositional conditions and palaeo‐environments are reconstructed.

Bat droppings collection by ants in epigean environments
Ecological Entomology, Volume 49, Issue 3, Page 445-449, June 2024.We provide the first register of interaction between seven different species of ants and droppings of two bat species in epigean environments. These ant–bat droppings interactions reported suggest the ecosystem service provided by ants on faecal degradation and nutrient cycling, especially in nutrient‐poor environments. All ants recorded are generalist

Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 33, Issue 6, June 2024.Abstract Aim Quantifying the relative contribution of environmental filtering versus limiting similarity in shaping communities is challenging because these processes often act simultaneously and their effect is scale‐dependent. Focusing on caves, island‐like natural laboratories with limited environmental variability and species diversity, we tested: (
