It was sunny and hot, with a temperature of 28°C. We drove first into Calvi, to allow a brief exploration of the town and to buy provisions for our lunches. The first butterfly we saw was a Geranium Bronze, on some Pelargoniums, a new record for us, in Corsica. We travelled south, through the maquis-covered hills, crossed the dried-up Fango river and stopped by the rocky coastline, just north of Galeria, for lunch. Plants of interest, in the vicinity, included the yellow-flowered Stink Aster Dittrichia viscosa, the familiar Curry Plant Helichrysum italicum, and a robust glaucous-leaved spurge Euphorbia pithyusa subsp. pithyusa. On the rocks, by the shore, were two of the islands rare endemics, the pink Corsican Stork’s-bill Erodium corsicum and the intricately-branched sea lavender Limonium corsicum. Our first lizard was the endemic Tyrrhenian Wall Lizard, the commonest species on the island. We headed south, on the narrow winding road, stopping next at the Col de Palmarella, to enjoy the views over the Golfe de Girolata and the rugged headland of Scandola. Just before reaching Porto, we entered some very dramatic scenery of red granite cliffs and made another stop, to have a closer look at the plants and enjoy the view.

  • Discoglossus Sardus and Euproctus Montanus During the Breeding Season
    HERPETOLOGICAL JOURNAL, Vol. 9, pp. 163-167 (1999) FEEDING HABITS OF SYMPATRIC DJSCOGLOSSUS MONTALENTII, DISCOGLOSSUS SARDUS AND EUPROCTUS MONTANUS DURING THE BREEDING SEASON SEBASTIANO SALYIDI01 , ROBERTO SINDAC02 AND LlVIO EMANUELl3 'Istituto di Zoologia, Universita di Genova, Via Balbi 5, I- I6126 Genova, Italy 2Istituto per le Piante da Legno e Ambiente, Corso Casale 476, 1- 10I 32 Torino, Italy 1Acquario di Genova, Area Porto Antico - Ponte Sp inola, I- 16128 Genova Italy The diets of three Corsican amphibians, Discoglossus montalentii, Discoglossus sardus and Euproctus montanus, were studied in the Ospedale region during the breeding season. Adult specimens were collected in or around breeding pools and were stomach flushed in the field. Prey taxa included a large variety of terrestrial and aquatic prey items of variable size, indicating opportunistic predation. All species were able to catch their prey both on land and in water, but varied in the proportions of aquatic and terrestrial prey consumed. E. montanus fed largely upon benthic macroinvertebrates, suggesting predation in deep water; D. sardus mainly captured terrestrial prey; and D. montalentii showed a mixed fe eding strategy, preying upon both terrestrial and aquatic prey categories in similar proportions. Discoglossus sardus showed the highest standardized value of niche breadth (D, = 0. 769), compared to D. montalentii and E. montanus (D, = 0.544 and D, = 0.523 respectively). When prey size frequency distributions were compared, no specific differences were observed. These results indicated that, at least during the breeding season, trophic segregation among sympatric amphibians was maintained by different foraging strategies, and that the three species exploited contiguous microhabitats in different ways.

Zumindest im Lebensraum "landwirt- schaftlich genutztes Gebiet" wurde ein teilweiser Wandel in den Ernährungsgewohnheiten von C. viridißavus hin- sichtlich der Art der Beutetiere festgestellt, indem die Nahrung der Schlange hier hauptsächlich aus Amphibien (Wechselkröten) und Nagetieren besteht. Vermutlich entwichelte C. viridißavus auf Ustica diese ungewöhnliche Eigenart als Reaktion auf die schlechte Verfügbarkeit der üblichen Beutetiere (Eidechsen und Nager) und die hohe Dichte an Wechselkröten im landwirtschaftlich genutzten Gebiet dieser mediterranen Insel. ABSTRACT We studied the taxonomic diet composition of Coluber viridiflavus LACÉPÈDE, 1789, collected from various habitat types (Mediterranean macchia, cultivated lands, pinewood, rocky coastline) of the small Island of Ustica, off the northern coast of Sicily (Italy).

ZUFFI2 1 Laboratories of Anthropology and Ethnology, Department of Evolutionistic Biology of the University of Florence, Florence, via del Proconsolo, 12, I-50122 Florence, Italy. 2 Museum Natural History and Territory, University of Pisa, via Roma 79, I-56011 Calci (Pisa), Italy. 3 Corresponding author: [email protected] ABSTRACT - For some time there has been debate regarding whether the asp viper, Vipera aspis (Linnaeus, 1758), belonged to the original fauna of the small island of Montecristo, Northern Tyrrhenian Sea (Tuscan archipelago, Italy). It has long been believed that the asp viper population of this island is made up of the subspecies Vipera aspis hugyi Schinz, 1833, also found in southern continental Italy and Sicily. A recent genetic study confirmed that this colonisation was exclusively mediated by humans, but also revealed that the extant vipers of Montecristo displayed closest relationships with those found in the Palermo region of Sicily, and southern Italy. It might be assumed that the animals that were introduced onto Montecristo originated from western Sicily. In light of recent contributions the aim of this paper is to make an original contribution regarding the times and mode of such an importation that was performed possibly around the 5th Century. ONTECRISTO has traditionally been 2009a). Wintering and migrant birds are also well Mregarded as a remote sea-bound world, represented on the island (Baccetti et al., 1981; cloaked since time immemorial in the mists of Baccetti, 1994).

Mass mortality episodes recorded in Europe indicate that investigations of unstudied species should focus on members of the frog family Alytidae. Here, we report the combined results of a field survey and laboratory observations of field collected Alytes dickhilleni. Our data support the hypothesis that B. dendrobatidis has recently emerged in at least two disjunct locations in the species range and populations across much of the species range lack evidence of infection pathogen. Tadpoles taken into the laboratory from sites with infection experienced 70% mortality, unlike those taken into the laboratory from uninfected sites, and both infection and strength of infection was associated with mortality in animals collected from infected locations. Several conservation interventions are underway in response to our study, including the establishment of a captive assurance colony, a public awareness campaign, and experimental tests of disease mitigation schemes.

  • Review Species List of the European Herpetofauna – 2020 Update by the Taxonomic Committee of the Societas Europaea Herpetologi
    Amphibia-Reptilia 41 (2020): 139-189 brill.com/amre Review Species list of the European herpetofauna – 2020 update by the Taxonomic Committee of the Societas Europaea Herpetologica Jeroen Speybroeck1,∗, Wouter Beukema2, Christophe Dufresnes3, Uwe Fritz4, Daniel Jablonski5, Petros Lymberakis6, Iñigo Martínez-Solano7, Edoardo Razzetti8, Melita Vamberger4, Miguel Vences9, Judit Vörös10, Pierre-André Crochet11 Abstract. 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 changes, including the discovery of new species-level lineages as well as reclassifications at genus level, requiring significant changes to this list. As of 2019, a new Taxonomic Committee was established as an official entity within the European Herpetological Society, Societas Europaea Herpetologica (SEH). Twelve members from nine European countries reviewed, discussed and voted on recent taxonomic research on a case-by-case basis. Accepted changes led to critical compilation of a new species list, which is hereby presented and discussed. According to our list, 301 species (95 amphibians, 15 chelonians, including six species of sea turtles, and 191 squamates) occur within our expanded geographical definition of Europe. The list includes 14 non-native species (three amphibians, one chelonian, and ten squamates). Keywords: Amphibia, amphibians, Europe, reptiles, Reptilia, taxonomy, updated species list.

    LIFE Project Number LIFE11 NAT/IT/00210 (CUP n. I92D12000100006) One deer, two islands Conservation of Red Deer Cervus elaphus corsicanus in Sardinia and Corse THE SARDINIAN-CORSICAN RED DEER Cervus elaphus corsicanus The Sardinian-Corsican red deer belongs to the family Cervidae and to the genus Cervus, which includes numerous species observed in Europe, North America, in most part of the Asian continent and in some areas of North Africa. The origin of the Sardinian deer is most likely related to human action. The most reliable theories consider the Sardinian deer as a distinct subspecies (C. e. corsicanus). Besides, given the complete lack of fossil remains, they suppose that its presence on the island and in the neighbouring Corse may be the consequence of the introduction of individuals from the Middle East or North Africa, occurred in the last period of the Bronze Age (1200 - 700 BC.). Sardinia In the past the deer lived in all wooded areas of Sardinia. Its presence is attested since the Nuragic period by numerous bronzes statues depicting deer in various activities. Historical accounts show that between late 1700s and early 1800s, the species was still abundant on the island and was highly regarded as hunter prey and for its economic value. In fact there’s evidence of the trade of living deer, skins and antlers. In the following years, however, the condition of the Sardinian deer worsened dramatically, due to many factors acting together. In the last post-war period, in spite of the prohibition of hunting established in 1939, the range of the species was further reduced: apart from the mountains of Sulcis, Arburese and Sarrabus, there were only relic cores nuclei.

  • Review Species List of the European Herpetofauna
    Amphibia-Reptilia 41 (2020): 139-189 brill.com/amre Review Species list of the European herpetofauna – 2020 update by the Taxonomic Committee of the Societas Europaea Herpetologica Jeroen Speybroeck1,∗, Wouter Beukema2, Christophe Dufresnes3, Uwe Fritz4, Daniel Jablonski5, Petros Lymberakis6, Iñigo Martínez-Solano7, Edoardo Razzetti8, Melita Vamberger4, Miguel Vences9, Judit Vörös10, Pierre-André Crochet11 Abstract. 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 changes, including the discovery of new species-level lineages as well as reclassifications at genus level, requiring significant changes to this list. As of 2019, a new Taxonomic Committee was established as an official entity within the European Herpetological Society, Societas Europaea Herpetologica (SEH). Twelve members from nine European countries reviewed, discussed and voted on recent taxonomic research on a case-by-case basis. Accepted changes led to critical compilation of a new species list, which is hereby presented and discussed. According to our list, 301 species (95 amphibians, 15 chelonians, including six species of sea turtles, and 191 squamates) occur within our expanded geographical definition of Europe. The list includes 14 non-native species (three amphibians, one chelonian, and ten squamates). Keywords: Amphibia, amphibians, Europe, reptiles, Reptilia, taxonomy, updated species list.

    1 The Tuscan Archipelago National Park The Protected Area includes about 180 square kilometres of land and about 600 of sea, comprising all the islands of the archipelago. Half of the area of Elba and Giglio is protected, and only a small built-up area on the Island of Capraia is excluded. Montecristo, Pianosa and Gorgona islands are under strict protection: access is limited to keep visitors to sustainable numbers. Although access to Giannutri is freely permitted, a guide is required to visit most parts of the island. The islands differ in geology, landscape, biodiversity, history and the human events that animated their past. There are corners where you can bathe in turquoise waters, open spaces bathed by golden sunsets, evergreen holm oak woods interspersed with geometric cultivated terraces and, lastly, extensive patches of colourful flowers stretching out towards the sea. Beyond that limit, the kingdom of pioneer plants growing among seaside rocks and on vertical cliffs, on rocky shores sheltering sandy inlets gently lapped by the waves. Walking trails intersect small, well preserved hamlets with ancient, fortified bastions that recall the tumultuous events of past dominations. Seven protected islands ELBA is the third largest Italian island (224 km2), measuring 27 km E-W and 18 km N-S. It lies 10 km from the Tuscan coast. Divided into the seven municipalities of Campo nell’Elba, Capoliveri, Marciana, Marciana Marina, Porto Azzurro, Portoferraio, Rio, it is prevalently mountainous or hilly. The western granite massif culminates in Mt. Capanne (altitude 1019 m), the highest peak in the archipelago. The island, known for its iron deposits, has an exceptional variety of rocks and minerals, generated by complex geological events.
