Habitat preference and diversification rates in a speciose lineage of diving beetles
(Elsevier, 2021)
The long-term geological stability of aquatic habitats has been demonstrated to be a determinant in the evolution of macroinvertebrate fauna, with species in running (lotic) waters having lower dispersal abilities, smaller ...

Incorporating phylogeographic information in alien bird distribution models increases geographic extent but not accuracy of predictions
(Springer, 2022)
Species distribution models (SDM) have been proposed as valuable first screening tools for predicting species responses to new environmental conditions. SDMs are usually conducted at the species level, assuming that ...

Climate matching and anthropogenic factors contribute to the colonization and extinction of local populations during avian invasions
(Wiley, 2022)
Aim: Concern about the impacts of biological invasions has generated a great deal of interest in understanding factors that determine invasion success. Most of our cur-rent knowledge comes from static approaches that use ...

Drivers of compositional dissimilarity for native and alien birds: 2 the relative roles of human activity and environmental suitability
(Springer, 2020)
We assessed the relative importance of human activity and environmental suitability as drivers of compositional dissimilarity of alien birds for 65 of the most populous cities of the Iberian Peninsula. We examined how these ...

Assessing the capacity of endemic alpine water beetles to face climate change
(Wiley, 2020)
1. Accurate assessments of species’vulnerability to climate change requireintegrated measurements of its different drivers, including extrinsic (the magnitude andrate of climate change) and intrinsic factors (organisms’sensitivity ...

An interspecific test of Bergmann’s rule reveals inconsistent body size patterns across several lineages of water beetles (Coleoptera: Dytiscidae)
(Wiley, 2019)
1. Bergmann's rule sensu lato, the ecogeographic pattern relating animals' body size with environmental temperature (or latitude), has been shown to be inconsistent among insect taxa. Body size clines remain largely ...

Effects of climate change on the distribution of threatened invertebrates in a Mediterranean hotspot
(Wiley, 2022)
1. The effects of climate change may constitute a major threat factor for endemic and threatened species of invertebrates. A particularly dramatic case can be found in the Iberian Peninsula, because of its high rate of ...

Thermal biology of aquatic insects in alpine lakes: Insights from diving beetles
(Wiley, 2023-10-21)
High mountain areas are especially vulnerable to global warming, as they ex-perience faster temperature changes than lowlands in a climate change con-text. Notably, increased temperatures and frequency of extreme flooding ...
