Finding answers in the dark: caves as models in ecology fifty years after Poulson and White
S Mammola - Ecography, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
The use of semi‐isolated habitats such as oceanic islands, lakes and mountain summits as
model systems has played a crucial role in the development of evolutionary and ecological …

Integrating landscape ecology and the assessment of ecosystem services in the study of karst areas
Context A landscape is defined as a “system of ecosystems” and this is a model in which
karst areas can easily be integrated. In karst areas, much of the connectivity between the …

Differences between microhabitat and broad-scale patterns of niche evolution in terrestrial salamanders
The extent to which closely related species share similar niches remains highly debated.
Ecological niches are increasingly analysed by combining distribution records with broad …

Environmental suitability models predict population density, performance and body condition for microendemic salamanders
Species can show strong variation of local abundance across their ranges. Recent analyses
suggested that variation in abundance can be related to environmental suitability, as the …

Applying species distribution models to caves and other subterranean habitats
Over the last two decades there has been an exponential increase in the use of correlative
species distribution models (SDMs) to address a variety of topics in ecology, biogeography …

The importance of natural history and species-specific approaches in amphibian ex-situ conservation
Due to the importance of ex-situ components of the response to the on-going amphibian
extinction crisis, the numbers of captive amphibian species and populations is growing …

Four years monitoring of the endangered European plethodontid salamanders
The ongoing biodiversity crisis is strongly threatening amphibians, mostly because of their
peculiar physiology, their sensitivity to climate change and the spread of diseases. Effective …

Islands within islands: diversification of tailless whip spiders (Amblypygi, Phrynus) in Caribbean caves
Islands have played a key role in understanding species formation ever since Darwin's work
on the Galapagos and Wallace's work in the Malay Archipelago. Like oceanic islands …
