Our results suggest that regional- or global-level studies will likely obscure fine-scale structuring in thermal habitats and corresponding patterns of local heat tolerance adaptation. Leer más.
The best predictors of habitat quality were related to vegetation composition and structure (land cover), climate (land surface temperature), and energy balance (evapotranspiration), matching with the ecology of climate (such as Abies pinsapo) or vegetation-dependent (such as Alytes dickhilleni) species.

At 1930 h on 8 January 2022, we encountered a juvenile (80 mm total length) with anomalous coloration during a monitoring visit to an urban park in Vigo (Pontevedra, northwest Spain). Leer más.
Low levels of FA, apparently the result of subclinical metabolic osteopathies (presumably attributable to improper diets of most of the animals examined, as they had been kept as pets), are excluded. Leer más.
Our findings indicate that the likelihood of amphibian road mortality was influenced by the presence of corridors and bridges, proximity to water, tertiary roads, inhabited areas, and riverine habitats. Leer más.
