Biology, ecology, and conservation of the Italian hare Lepus corsicanus: a review
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.The Italian hare Lepus corsicanus, an endemic lagomorph of Italy, serves as a critical case study in evolutionary biology and conservation. Once taxonomically debated, modern genetic and morphological analyses confirm its status as a distinct Pleistocene lineage restricted to the central‐southern Italian Peninsula and Sicily.

Sunflecks and Their Importance to Forest Understorey Plants
, 1988 This chapter begins with an introduction on the topic, that is, sunflecks and their importance to forest understorey plants. Sunflecks occur when predominantly direct-beam radiation passes through openings in the forest canopy.

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Global change and associated disturbances are increasing the risk of regeneration failure for tree species in temperate forests. Seedlings are particularly vulnerable to water stress due to their shallow root systems, making below‐ground plasticity a potentially key ...

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The physiology of tropical mosses, liverworts and lichens may be challenged by the daily weather patterns in lowland rainforests. Since these poikilohydric organisms can only photosynthesize and respire when hydrated, unfavourable timing of light and water availability (

Impact of harvest intensity on ectomycorrhizal and saprotrophic fungal communities in forest soils
Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Low‐intensity tree harvesting has been proposed as a sustainable forest management practice to balance and preserve forest productivity, carbon storage and resilience to climate extremes. Soil fungi play a central role in driving tree performance and soil carbon storage,
