Lethaia, EarlyView., 2021 Biomineralization is a generic term used to indicate biological‐mediated mineral formation. In carbonate mineralization, nucleation of crystals can be: (1) controlled directly by the organisms, like in the skeletal formation of most metazoans; (2) induced by microbial communities, by indirect precipitation mediated by their metabolic activities; or (3)

Re-introduction and present status of the lynx (<em>Lynx Lynx</em>) in Switzerland
Hystrix, the Italian Journal of Mammalogy, 1998 <strong>Abstract</strong> A lynx recovery programme started in Switzerland in 1970. From 1970-76, at least 14 lynx were translocated from the Carpathian Mountains into the Swiss Alps. Another re-introduction took place in the Jura Mountains,

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Glaciokarst landscapes pose distinctive challenges for cosmogenic dating because meltwater and runoff can be rapidly rerouted into ponors and conduit networks, weakening glacier–river coupling and promoting local sediment storage. We reconstruct glacier retreat and postglacial stabilization on the Snežnik Plateau (SW Slovenia) using in situ ...

Glacial refugia and speciation in a group of wind-pollinated and -dispersed, endemic Alpine species of Helictotrichon (Poaceae). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 In the Alps phylogeographic studies indicate for small insect-pollinated herbs that climatic fluctuations caused significant population migrations and fragmentations into glacial refugia at the periphery of the Alps.

Lectotypifications and taxonomic changes in the holoparasitic Orobanchaceae
Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Based on further extensive studies of specimens in various herbaria, lectotypes are designated for many taxa of holoparasitic Orobanchaceae. In particular, 47 names in the genera Boschniakia (incl. Xylanche), Cistanche, Orobanche, Phelipanche and Phelypaea are lectotypified.

Rhagidiidae mites of the Western Italian Alps
, 2023 In the pre-alpine areas of the Mediterranean basin fragmented underground environments have differentiated, probably almost unchanged since the Miocene (over 5 million years ago). These environments enabled long periods of colonization and geographical isolation for organisms, allowing the Rhagidiidae mites an evolutionary process of millions of years.
