Community variation of spiders, beetles and isopods in three small island groups of the Aegean Sea: the interplay between history and ecology
(2017)Aim: To study the variation in the species turnover and nestedness components of compositional dissimilarity in a multi-taxa and multi-island-group system. In addition, to examine the influence of several biogeographical ...

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 ...

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, ...

Testing for nestedness in the terrestrial isopods and snails of Kyklades islands (Aegean archipelago, Greece)
(1999)Most insular communities exhibit nestedness, with the species assemblages of the more depauperate islands constituting subsets of those of the richer. Several methods for the estimation and evaluation of nestedness have ...
