Trophic niche and feeding biology of the Italian wall lizard, Podarcis siculus campestris (De Betta, 1857) along western Mediterranean coast

Acta Herpetologica, 2013
Trophic niche of the Italian wall lizard was studied at three different sites in Tuscany (central northern Italy), two along the Mediterranean sea, one inland. Fecal pellet analysis was carried out on 71 pellets (37 of male and 34 of female adult lizards)

Microbial Life Inside Posidonia Seeds: Beneficial Endophytes and Implications for Marine Plant Health

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 2, April 2026.
Seagrass Posidonia oceanica seeds host diverse bacterial and fungal endophytes with plant‐growth–promoting traits, including nitrogen fixation and hormone production. These microbes may be vertically transmitted and support seedling establishment, offering insights for marine plant conservation and biotechnological applications.

Quantifying Gas and Thermal Energy Emissions in an Active Geothermal Area: Insights From Le Biancane (Larderello Field, Italy)

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The Larderello‐Travale area in the northern Apennines of Italy hosts the world's oldest exploited geothermal field. Its success lies primarily in the presence of an extraordinary geothermal resource housed in a large vapor‐dominated fractured reservoir that produces superheated steam.

Assessing the context‐dependence of invasiveness in the Italian wall lizard (Podarcis siculus)

The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 2, February 2026.
Although the Italian wall lizard (Podarcis siculus) is widely considered fully invasive, our study on Gorgona Island shows its spread is largely confined to human‐altered habitats. Native common wall lizards (P. muralis) persist in natural areas, indicating that Italian wall lizard invasiveness is context‐dependent and mediated by human‐altered ...

Genomic analysis of Plebejus Kluk (Lycaenidae: Polyommatinae) clarifies taxonomy within Europe

Systematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, January‐March 2026.
The first genomic analysis for the genus Plebejus in Europe is presented, based on ddRAD sequencing data comprising all European Plebejus plus some Asian and North American taxa. Plebejus idas is recovered as paraphyletic, Plebejus corsicus as a subspecies of Plebejus argus and Plebejus villai as a population of Plebejus bellieri, totalling 4 species ...

Preparation and Identification of Heavy Minerals for Archaeometrical Studies: Villa of Fiumana (FC), Italy

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, Volume 56, Issue 11, Page 1302-1314, November 2025.
This paper presents a new protocol for the laboratory preparation of archaeological samples. Ceramics that have been hand‐crafted using different sediments as raw materials were collected in a Roman Villa sited in Fiumana (FC), Italy. This method aims at concentrating and analysing heavy minerals in the 15–250 μm grain size fraction, studying the ...

A Fragile Stronghold: Genomics Reveal Angelshark Population Vulnerability in Corsica, a Key Mediterranean Refuge

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
This first genomic insight into a key Mediterranean angelshark stronghold reveals an effective population size below critical conservation thresholds, high site fidelity, and multiple paternity. Despite evidence of active reproduction, ongoing bycatch remains a major threat, underscoring the urgent need for conservation actions. ABSTRACT Once common in
