Biodiversity analyses can greatly benefit from coherent species delimitation schemes and up-
to-date distribution data. In this article, we have made the daring attempt to delimit and map …

The last species list of the European herpetofauna was published by Speybroeck, Beukema
and Crochet (2010). In the meantime, ongoing research led to numerous taxonomic …

This paper presents an artistic paleolandscape experiment based primarily on recent
palynological data from the Paleolithic site of Pešturina, in the Central Balkans of Serbia …

The advent of genomic methods allows us to revisit the evolutionary history of organismal
groups for which robust phylogenies are still lacking, particularly in species complexes that …

Species delimitation is a first step for realizing the extent of biodiversity and is relevant for all
downstream applications in biology. The production of large genome-scale datasets for non …

The Odonata are considered among the most endangered freshwater faunal taxa. Their
DNA‐based monitoring relies on validated reference data sets that are often lacking or do …

Recent genomic analyses of evolutionary radiations suggest that ancient introgression may
facilitate rapid diversification and adaptive radiation. The loach genus Triplophysa, a genus …

The salamander genus Salamandra is widespread across Europe, North Africa, and the
Near East and is renowned for its conspicuous and polymorphic colouration and diversity of …

An accurate species‐level taxonomy is paramount for biogeographical research, and
conversely, biogeographical data are of importance for species delimitation. We here review …

The vulnerability of species to climate change is jointly influenced by geographic phenotypic
variation, acclimation and behavioural thermoregulation. The importance of interactions …
