Phylogeography and Contact Zones of the Common Grass Snake in Poland (Squamata: Natricidae: Natrix natrix)

open access: yesZoologica Scripta, Volume 55, Issue 2, Page 209-219, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Until now, the genetic identity of common grass snakes (Natrix natrix) in Poland remained poorly understood. This study presents the first comprehensive phylogeographic analysis for Poland using mitochondrial DNA sequences (cyt b and ND4 + tRNAs) and 13 nuclear microsatellite loci.

Microdistributions of stoneflies of the High Tatra montane streams

open access: yesOpen Life Sciences, 2015
Stonefly samples were collected from disturbed and undisturbed tributaries of the Tatra Mountains streams (the West Carpathians). In the autumn, at stable low discharge, the total density of stoneflies was significantly higher in the undisturbed streams.

Hydrothermal dolomitisation of a deep‐water bioherm isolated in a non‐dolomitised intraplatform basin within the Norian Dolomia Principale (Southern Alps, northern Italy)

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 1, February 2026.
We propose that one of the largest known bioconstructions (the Monte Zenone bioherm) in the Southern Alps, northern Italy, and its growth on a tilted and drowned platform block of the Norian Dolomia Principale was controlled by hydrothermal dolomitisation from fault‐controlled fluids during the Late Triassic–Early Jurassic rifting phase.

Oaks and Climate Change: Contrasting Range Responses of Mediterranean and Temperate Quercus Species in the Western Palearctic

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
We analyzed past and future range dynamics of six oak (Quercus) species across the western Palearctic using ecological niche models, reconstructing distributions for the Last Glacial Maximum, the present, and two future scenarios. Quantitative metrics of centroid shifts, range limits, and area change revealed that temperate and transition‐zone species ...
