We studied sequence variation in 16S rDNA in 204 individuals from 37 populations of the
land snail Candidula unifasciata (Poiret 1801) across the core species range in France …

The patterns of the migration activity of 43 species of land snails and slugs were analyzed
on the basis of both original and literature data. Different species of terrestrial mollusks …

Species richness on island or islandlike systems is a function of colonization, within‐island
speciation, and extinction. Here we evaluate the relative importance of the first two of these …

1. Land snail dispersal abilities are considered poor; however, the current invasion of the
French Mediterranean region by Xeropicta derbentina (Krynicki 1836), as well as the past …

We investigated the utility of three polymerase chain-reaction (PCR)-based DNA molecular
markers in analysing genetic structure of the populations of the blacklip abalone Haliotis …

Intraspecific phylogeographical patterns largely depend on the life history traits of a species.
Especially species with a high degree of cold tolerance, limited requirements towards …

Individual marking has long been used in many fields of biology. However, capture–mark–
recapture (CMR) studies are not evenly distributed among taxonomic groups, with most …

Aim We investigated the patterns of species richness in land snails and slugs along a
tropical elevational gradient and whether these patterns correlate with area, elevation …

The aim of the study was to assess the impact of a pastoral management chosen to limit the
recent expansion of woodland on a Mediterranean mountain on land snail diversity. An …

In an effort to link quantitative morphometric information with molecular data on the
population level, we have analysed 19 populations of the conchologically variable land snail …
