Substrate type has a limited impact on the sprint performance of a Mediterranean lizard
(Firenze University Press, 2019-12-27)Environmental factors may affect animal performance in diverse ways, even among different populations of a single species. Here, we assess the impact of substrate type on the sprint performance (maximum speed and acceleration) ...

The role of ecological specialization in shaping patterns of insular communities
(Wiley, 2020-09-30)Aim: Research on the response of species richness to area and environmental heterogeneity so far has not addressed possible effects of species’ differences in ecological specialization. Herein we provide a new metric, ...

The effect of fire on ant assemblages does not depend on habitat openness but does select for large, gracile predators
(2021-06-09)Ecosystems can respond in a variety of ways to the same agent of disturbance. In some con-texts,fire causes large and long-lasting changes to ecological communities. In others,fire has a limited orshort-lived impact on ...

Simple null model analysis subsumes a new species co-occurrence index: A comment on Mainali et al. (2022)
(Wiley, 2022-10-02)Recently, Mainali et al. (2022, termed MSSF henceforth) proposed a new index of pair-wise species co-occurrence based on the log odds ratio α of conditional occurrence probability. Under the assumption that the total numbers ...

Deterministic assembly and anthropogenic extinctions drive convergence of island bird communities
(Wiley, 2022-06-10)Aim Whether entire communities of organisms converge towards predictable structural properties in similar environmental conditions remains controversial. We tested for community convergence in birds by comparing the ...

Are all islands the same? A comparative thermoregulatory approach in four insular populations
(Brill, 2022-12-21)As ectotherms, lizards, among the best models in thermal studies, are influenced by many abiotic factors. Interestingly, there is a scarcity of data regarding the impact that insularity may have on thermoregulation. Islands, ...

The story of a rock-star: multilocus phylogeny and species delimitation in the starred or roughtail rock agama, Laudakia stellio (Reptilia: Agamidae)
(Oxford Academic, 2022-01-31)Situated at the junction of three continents, Europe, Asia and Africa, the Eastern Mediterranean is an ideal region to study the effects of palaeogeography, ecology and long human presence on animal evolution. Laudakia ...

Diversification within an oceanic Mediterranean island: Insights from a terrestrial isopod
(ScienceDirect, 2022-07-08)Understanding intra-island patterns of evolutionary divergence, including cases of cryptic diversity, is a crucial step towards deciphering speciation processes. Cyprus is an oceanic island isolated for at least 5.3 Mya ...
