Abstract: The caper plant is widespread in Sicily (Italy) both wild in natural habitats and as special- ized crops, showing considerable morphological variation. However, although contributing to a thriving market, innovation in caper cropping is low. The aim of the study was to evaluate agronomic and production behavior of some biotypes of Capparis spinosa L. subsp. rupestris, identified on the Island of Linosa (Italy) for growing purposes. Two years and seven biotypes of the species were tested in a randomized complete block design. The main morphological and production parame- Citation: La Bella, S.; Rossini, F.; ters were determined. Phenological stages were also observed.

  • The Graham Volcanic Field Offshore Southwestern Sicily (Italy) Revealed by High-Resolution Seafloor Mapping and ROV Images
    feart-07-00311 November 22, 2019 Time: 16:28 # 1 ORIGINAL RESEARCH published: 26 November 2019 doi: 10.3389/feart.2019.00311 The Graham Volcanic Field Offshore Southwestern Sicily (Italy) Revealed by High-Resolution Seafloor Mapping and ROV Images Danilo Cavallaro* and Mauro Coltelli Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia, Sezione di Catania, Osservatorio Etneo, Catania, Italy The understanding of submarine monogenetic volcanic fields, especially if located near to coastal areas, is fundamental for volcanic risk assessment. Using high-resolution bathymetric data and ROV images, the submarine Graham volcanic field, located 40–50 km offshore southwestern Sicily (Italy), has been described in detail. The field comprises a ten of monogenetic volcanic seamounts aligned along a N-S trending belt at 150–250 m water depths and includes the relict of the short-lived “Ferdinandea Island” produced during the well-documented 1831 “Surtseyan-type” eruption. The present- day morphology of the cones is the result of the interplay between volcanic activity, wave and current erosion, mass-wasting and depositional processes, in relationship with sea- Edited by: level change, acting in both subaerial and submarine environments. The analysis of the Guido Giordano, Roma Tre University, Italy morphometric parameters allowed a detailed morphological classification of the cones. Reviewed by: The seamounts are composed of poorly consolidated tephra and show steep slopes Dario Pedrazzi, and pointy or flat tops, often characterized by sub-vertical knolls. Taking into account Instituto de Ciencias de la Tierra Jaume Almera (ICTJA), Spain analogies with other volcanic seamounts worldwide, the analysis of some morphological Claudia Romagnoli, characteristics, such as presence and depth of terraces on top and along the slope University of Bologna, Italy of the cones in relationship with sea-level fluctuations, allowed us to hypothesize a *Correspondence: Late Pleistocene-Holocene age for the volcanism forming the field.

    BORN IN THE MEDITERRANEAN: Alicia Vicente,3 Ma Angeles´ Alonso,3 and COMPREHENSIVE TAXONOMIC Manuel B. Crespo3* REVISION OF BISCUTELLA SER. BISCUTELLA (BRASSICACEAE) BASED ON MORPHOLOGICAL AND PHYLOGENETIC DATA1,2 ABSTRACT Biscutella L. ser. Biscutella (5 Biscutella ser. Lyratae Malin.) comprises mostly annual or short-lived perennial plants occurring in the Mediterranean basin and the Middle East, which exhibit some diagnostic floral features. Taxa in the series have considerable morphological plasticity, which is not well correlated with clear geographic or ecologic patterns. Traditional taxonomic accounts have focused on a number of vegetative and floral characters that have proved to be highly variable, a fact that contributed to taxonomic inflation mostly in northern Africa. A detailed study and re-evaluation of morphological characters, together with recent phylogenetic data based on concatenation of two plastid and one nuclear region sequence data, yielded the basis for a taxonomic reappraisal of the series. In this respect, a new comprehensive integrative taxonomic arrangement for Biscutella ser. Biscutella is presented in which 10 taxa are accepted, namely seven species and three additional varieties. The name B. eriocarpa DC. is reinterpreted and suggested to include the highest morphological variation found in northern Morocco. Its treatment here accepts two varieties, one of which is described as new (B. eriocarpa var. riphaea A. Vicente, M. A.´ Alonso & M. B. Crespo). In addition, the circumscriptions of several species, such as B. boetica Boiss. & Reut., B. didyma L., B. lyrata L., and B. maritima Ten., are revisited. Nomenclatural types, synonymy, brief descriptions, cytogenetic data, conservation status, distribution maps, and identification keys are included for the accepted taxa, with seven lectotypes and one epitype being designated here.

  • Mediterranean Monk Seal News II
    Vol. 7 (2): November 2004 Download this page Greece / Italy / Madeira / Mauritania & Western Sahara / Morocco / Turkey Italy A brief survey of Linosa island More than 160 km south of Sicily, just in the middle of the Mediterranean sea, the island of Linosa forms, together with Lampedusa and the rock of Lampione, the Pelagian archipelago. A wonderful island of ancient volcanic origin, called Aethusa by the ancient Greeks and Algusa by the Romans, with a great variety of colours: from the black of its rocks and little shores to the green of the Mediterranean bushes, from the deep blue of the sea to the heavenly clean sky. Linosa is quite a small island, round shaped, with a surface of 5.4 sq km. The Caretta caretta sea turtles still lay their eggs on its beaches. Until the end of the 1950s, it also hosted, along with Lampedusa, “shrinking” colonies of monk seals, sadly all exterminated in the end, by the fishermen. Today, the sea fauna of Linosa is still quite rich, with a great deal of Mediterranean fish and more and more subtropical fish: it would surely permit a vital monk seal population, as would the bigger and calcareous island of Lampedusa, if some recolonisation would take place. Sporadic sightings at the two islands are reported by some locals, but it is difficult to verify their truthfulness. The attitudes of the fishermen, now reduced in number, should also be evaluated. At the end of June, two members of the “Gruppo Foca Monaca” went to Linosa for a short holiday. Visiting from the sea the so called “scogli dei bovi marini” (marine cows rocks), once inhabited by the seals, it was noted that some caves still seemed suitable for resting and reproduction.

  • Fundamental Rights at Europe's Southern Sea Borders
    doi:10.2811/26971 TK-31-12-373-EN-C EUROPEAN UNION AGENCY FOR FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS DIGNITY FRA HELPING TO MAKE FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS A REALITY FOR EVERYONE IN THE EUROPEAN UNION Fundamental rights at Europe’s southern sea borders southern sea Europe’s at rights Fundamental Each year, hundreds of men, women and children board overcrowded and ill-equipped boats in an attempt to reach Europe, a phenomenon that started in the late 1980s after European countries tightened immigration policies and made it more difficult to enter such countries in a regular way. They may be fleeing violence and persecution or seeking improved opportunities for themselves and their families. Many do not survive the trip, never reaching their destination, as documented by media headlines and substantiated by several reports. Others are intercepted and turned back. Those who do make it may be detained until their legal status is clarified. This FRA report examines the conditions at Europe’s southern sea borders with respect to the most fundamental rights of a person, the right to life and the right not to be sent back to torture, persecution or inhuman treatment. It looks at sea border surveillance and disembarkation procedures, as well as general issues such as European Union (EU) policy, training and Frontex-coordinated operations, and examines practices across the EU Member States researched – Cyprus, Greece, Italy, Malta and Spain. By mapping the fundamental rights challenges at Europe’s southern sea borders and by identifying promising practices, this report is intended to offer advice to EU policy makers as well as practitioners at both the EU and Member State level.
