Using a diagnostic mitochondrial marker gene, we document the presence of furry‐eared dwarf lemurs, a species known from Madagascar's eastern montane rainforests, in several forest fragments across the island's central highlands. These findings raise new questions about when this species colonized these sites, how they tolerate these changing and ...

ABSTRACT Soil disturbance resulting from forest harvesting activities can have significant and lasting environmental consequences, particularly in sensitive ecosystems such as Mediterranean forests. Skid trails, the routes used by machinery to extract timber, are among the most critical areas of impact, and their detection is critical for assessing ...
