Biodiversity patterns of terrestrial isopods from two island groups in the Aegean Sea (Greece): Species-area relationship, small island effect, and nestedness
(2008)Although almost one third of Aegean islands have an area smaller than 1 km2, very few studies have concentrated on this spatial Scale. We investigate biodiversity patterns of terrestrial isopods in 2 island groups (Kalymnos ...

Factors affecting plant species richness and endemism on land-bridge islands - An example from the East Aegean archipelago
(2010)The native flora and a number of environmental factors were recorded for twenty islands in the eastern Aegean archipelago (Greece) in order to study the patterns of native and endemic plant species diversity as well as the ...

From plots to islands: Species diversity at different scales
(2012)Aim To investigate how plant diversity of whole islands ('gamma') is related to alpha and beta diversity patterns among sampling plots within each island, thus exploring aspects of diversity patterns across scales. Location ...

Island biogeography is not a single-variable discipline: The small island effect debate
(2012)In some island systems, an 'anomalous' feature of species richness on smaller islands, in comparison with larger ones, has been observed. This has been described as the small island effect (SIE). The precise meaning of the ...

Patterns of species richness on very small islands: The plants of the Aegean archipelago
(2006)Aim: To investigate the species-area relationship (SAR) of plants on very small islands, to examine the effect of other factors on species richness, and to check for a possible Small Island Effect (SIE). Location: The study ...
