Distribution modelling of Eleonora's Falcon Falco eleonorae Géné, 1839 occurrence in its wintering grounds: A niche-based approach with satellite telemetry data
(2014)Summary Eleonora's Falcon is a long-distance migrant of the Palearctic region. In recent years, the advent of satellite telemetry has enabled a more detailed investigation of the species's migratory and wintering periods. ...

From sampling stations to archipelagos: Investigating aspects of the assemblage of insular biota
(2004)Aim To investigate the formation of nestedness and species co-occurrence patterns at the local (sampling station), the intermediate (island group), and the archipelago scale. Location The study used data on the distribution ...

Article
Habitat diversity, ecological requirements of species and the Small Island Effect
(2009)Aim: To explore the causal factors leading to a significant Small Island Effect (SIE), that is, the absence of the commonly found species-area relationships below an island size, on the terrestrial isopod communities from ...

An improved method for the identification of areas of endemism using species co-occurrences
(2008)Aim: To develop a simple method that (1) combines the notions of biotic elements (groups of taxa with ranges significantly more similar to each other than to the ranges of other taxa) and of areas of endemism (AoE, areas ...

Significant pairwise co-occurrence patterns are not the rule in the majority of biotic communities
(2012)Our aim was to investigate species co-occurrence patterns in a large number of published biotic communities, in order to document to what extent species associations can be found in presence-absence matrices. We also aim ...

Species co-occurrence: The case of congeneric species and a causal approach to patterns of species association
(2006)Aim: To test whether congeneric species are significantly associated with one another in space, either positively or negatively. Also, to provide a framework for a causal investigation of co-occurrence patterns by a parallel ...

Turnover of plants on small islets of the eastern Aegean Sea within two decades
(2008)Aim: To estimate species turnover of plants on 32 small islands within a 20-year period and to assess possible changes in community composition and properties, such as species richness and factors affecting it, nestedness, ...
