Como todos sabeis, el pasado verano ha sido uno de los mas importantes en número de incendios y hectáreas quemadas en la Península Ibérica, especialmente en el Noroeste.
Por este motivo es muy importante que aquellas personas que tengan recorridos SARE que se hayan quemado en el verano de 2025 no dejen de hacer los censos.
Os agradeceríamos que nos escribieseis a ahe@herpetologica.org para tener una idea de cuantos recorridos se han visto afectados.
Cette synthèse, qui soutient le statut intraspécifique de S. s. fastuosa et l’absence de S. s. “hispanica” en France, du moins sous sa forme pure, constitue un point de départ pour approfondir les connaissances sur la distribution géographique des sous-espèces de Salamandre tachetée et pour examiner les processus qui régulent le flux de gènes entre elles.

The ilium of tree frogs from Makhnevskaya Ledyanaya Cave is assigned to the genus Hyla based on the following features: the crista dorsalis is absent, the tuber superior is rounded and positioned dorsolaterally, the pars descendens is strongly expanded and forms an angle of 135°–140° with the ala ilii.

Our results revealed differences between species in terms of thermoregulatory and water-loss dynamics: Timon lepidus showed higher foraging and basking activity, particularly in open rocky microhabitats. In contrast, Lacerta schreiberi relied more on shaded vegetated microhabitats and exhibited higher size-corrected evaporative water loss. Leer más.
