Status of the largest extant population of the critically endangered Aeolian lizard Podarcis raffonei (Capo Grosso, Vulcano island)
The Aeolian wall lizard Podarcis raffonei is an island endemic that survives only on three
tiny islets, and on the Capo Grosso peninsula of the Vulcano island, thus is among the …

Colonization routes uncovered in a widely introduced Mediterranean gecko, Tarentola mauritanica
In this study, we aimed to understand the contemporary and ancient colonization routes of
the Moorish gecko, Tarentola mauritanica, using simple sequence repeats. By analyzing the …

Effective thermoregulation in a newly established population of Podarcis siculus in Greece: a possible advantage for a successful invader
Temperature affects all aspects of reptilian biology. In order to colonize new habitats and
support viable populations lizards have to successfully deal with their thermal environment …
