Here we propose a framework to account for several sources of uncertainty in conservation prioritization. Within this framework we account for uncertainties arising from (i) species distributions that shift following climate change, (ii) basic connectivity requirements of species, (iii) alternative climate change scenarios and their impacts, (iv) in the modelling of species distributions, and (v) different levels of confidence about present and future. When future impacts of climate change are uncertain, robustness of decision- making can be improved by quantifying the risks and trade-offs associated with climate scenarios. Sensible prioritization that accounts simultaneously for the present and potential future distributions of species is achievable without overly jeopardising present-day conservation values. Doing so requires systematic treatment of uncertainties and testing of the sensitivity of results to assumptions about climate. We illustrate the proposed framework by identifying priority areas for amphibians and reptiles in Europe.

Ecosystems are efficiently. The discipline of systematic conservation planning has already responding to such changes, with species range shifts, thus seen the development of methods for solving such non-trivial phenological changes, and changes in species’ abundances and conservation resource allocation problems, factoring in predicted community composition [1,2]. Climate change is thus recognized species range shifts by modelling expected responses of species to as a major threat to biodiversity and a big challenge to climate change [5,19–21]. Yet, an issue of concern is the conservation [3–5]. uncertainty associated with both climate change and the Protected areas are critical instruments for safeguarding consequent species responses [22]. This is particularly trouble- biodiversity.

    ALDROVANDIA 5 2009: 217 - 227 SIZE AND SHAPE IN MEDITERRANEAN INSULAR LIZARDS: PATTERNS OF VARIATION IN PODARCIS RAFFONEI, P. SICULA AND P. WAGLERIANA (REPTILIA: SQUAMATA: LACERTIDAE) Massimo Capula, Sara Chiantini, Luca Luiselli, Anna Loy ABSTRACT Landmark based geometric morphometrics was applied to the analysis of the cephalic scales of three phylogenetically related lacertid lizards (Podarcis raffonei, P. sicula, P. wagleriana) from some islands of the central Mediterranean area in order to assess the pattern of geographic variation and the phenetic relationships among and within the three species. Twenty nine homologous landmarks were recorded on the half configuration of the cephalic scales. To compare geometric and biometric patterns of variation and to evaluate any static allometry, seven biometric measurements were also recorded on the whole body. The three species significantly differ from each other in both shape and size of the skull. The shape of the Sopraocular and the Parietal scales appears to be highly diagnostic and species-specific. The analysis of intraspecific variation in shape of the cephalic scales indicates that P. sicula is the less variable species within the studied geographic area, whereas Podarcis raffonei is the most variable species both in size and shape. Podarcis raffonei is characterized by a divergent allometric pattern, likely related to the small population size and highly fragmented geographic range of the species.

  • Evolutionary History of Podarcis Tiliguerta on Corsica and Sardinia V
    Rodríguez et al. BMC Evolutionary Biology (2017) 17:27 DOI 10.1186/s12862-016-0860-4 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Evolutionary history of Podarcis tiliguerta on Corsica and Sardinia V. Rodríguez1†, J. M. Buades1†, R. P. Brown2, B. Terrasa1, V. Pérez-Mellado3, C. Corti4, M. Delaugerre5, J. A. Castro1, A. Picornell1 and M. M. Ramon1* Abstract Background: Podarcis tiliguerta is a wall lizard endemic to the Mediterranean islands of Corsica and Sardinia. Previous findings of high mtDNA and morphological diversity have led to the suggestion that it may represent a species complex. Here, we analysed mitochondrial and nuclear markers (mtDNA, 3110 bp; 6 nDNA loci, 3961 bp) in P. tiliguerta sampled from thirty-two localities across Corsica and Sardinia. Results: We find much greater intraspecific genetic divergence than between sister species of other Mediterranean island Podarcis, i.e., between P. lilfordi and P. pityusensis. We detected three mtDNA clusters in Corsica (North, South-East and South-West) and either two or three in Sardinia (North vs. South) depending on the clustering method. Only one or two nDNA groups were identified within each main island (again, depending on the method). A Bayesian time- calibrated multispecies coalescent tree was obtained from mtDNA and provided statistical support for a Miocene origin of the species (13.87 Ma, 95% HPD: 18.30–10.77 Ma). The posterior mean divergence time for the Corsican and Sardinian lineages was 12.75 Ma ago (95% HPD: 16.94–9.04 Ma). Conclusion: The results support the evolutionary distinctiveness of Corsican and Sardinian populations and also indicate a lack of post-divergence migration despite periods of contact being possible.

  • Getting Ahead: Exploitative Competition by an Invasive Lizard
    Behavioral Ecology and Sociobiology (2020) 74: 117 https://doi.org/10.1007/s00265-020-02893-2 ORIGINAL ARTICLE Getting ahead: exploitative competition by an invasive lizard Isabel Damas-Moreira1 & Julia L. Riley2,3 & Miguel A. Carretero4,5 & D. James Harris4,5 & Martin J. Whiting1 Received: 28 March 2020 /Revised: 12 August 2020 /Accepted: 14 August 2020 / Published online: 5 September 2020 # Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature 2020 Abstract Biological invasions are a contemporary global threat because invasive species can have substantial negative economic and ecological impacts. Invasive species can outcompete native species through two main mechanisms: interference competition (direct, negative interactions like aggression) and/or exploitative competition (indirect, negative interactions resulting from species using the same, limited resources like food). The invasive Italian wall lizard (Podarcis siculus) was introduced into Lisbon, Portugal, 20 years ago, and is believed to be locally displacing the native green Iberian wall lizard (Podarcis virescens). We experimentally tested for competition between these two lizard species by establishing heterospecific (one pair of each species) and conspecific (two pairs of the same species; control) treatments in enclosures containing a high- and a low-quality refuge. Lizards were fed from food dishes every other day. We tested if species showed interference (aggressive behaviour, stealing food and shelter exclusion) or exploitative competition (tolerance between species but differences in food consumption efficiency). We found evidence for exploitative competition: the invasive species arrived first at food stations, consumed more food and gained more weight than the native species. We suggest that exploitative competition may, in part, explain the observed displacement of P.

  • Digging up the Roots of an Insular Hotspot of Genetic Diversity
    Salvi et al. BMC Evolutionary Biology (2017) 17:63 DOI 10.1186/s12862-017-0899-x RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Digging up the roots of an insular hotspot of genetic diversity: decoupled mito-nuclear histories in the evolution of the Corsican-Sardinian endemic lizard Podarcis tiliguerta Daniele Salvi1,2* , Catarina Pinho2 and D. James Harris2 Abstract Background: Mediterranean islands host a disproportionately high level of biodiversity and endemisms. Growing phylogeographic evidence on island endemics has unveiled unexpectedly complex patterns of intra-island diversification, which originated at diverse spatial and temporal scales. We investigated multilocus genetic variation of the Corsican-Sardinian endemic lizard Podarcis tiliguerta with the aim of shedding more light on the evolutionary processes underlying the origin of Mediterranean island biodiversity. Results: We analysed DNA sequences of mitochondrial (12S and nd4) and nuclear (acm4 and mc1r) gene fragments in 174 individuals of P. tiliguerta from 81 localities across the full range of the species in a geographic and genealogical framework. We found surprisingly high genetic diversity both at mitochondrial and nuclear loci. Seventeen reciprocally monophyletic allopatric mitochondrial haplogroups were sharply divided into four main mitochondrial lineages (two in Corsica and two in Sardinia) of Miocene origin. In contrast, shallow divergence and shared diversity within and between islands was observed at the nuclear loci. We evaluated alternative biogeographic and evolutionary scenarios to explain such profound discordance in spatial and phylogenetic patterning between mitochondrial and nuclear genomes. While neutral models provided unparsimonious explanations for the observed pattern, the hypothesis of environmental selection driving mitochondrial divergence in the presence of nuclear gene flow is favoured.

Podarcis tiliguerta, a Wall Lizard endemic to Corsica and Sardinia, has recently been shown to harbour highly genetically distinct mitochondrial lineages, that may indicate it is in fact a species complex. Here we combine 12S rRNA mtDNA sequences from previous studies with 17 newly gener- ated sequences to better understand genetic diversity within this group. In particular we include samples from the Cerbicale islands, which were quite distinct in an earlier assessment of protein electrophoretic variation. Results confirm that distinct lineages exist on Corsica and Sardinia. The Cerbicale islands appear as part of the Corsican group. A third lineage exists, although at present it is known only from a single specimen from Sardinia.

The first evolutionary event concerning Phylogeography mtDNA the split between the two main lineages from an ancestral population occurred in the Upper Pliocene ND4 (5.87–3.68 mya), while the divergence within lineage B would have started from the Upper Pleistocene Lacertidae (2.5–1.6 mya), between Corsican and Sardinian populations.
