Phylogeographic and Genomic Insights Unveil the Evolutionary History and Post‐Glacial Recolonization Routes of the Palmate Newt (<i>Lissotriton helveticus</i>) Into Europe Open
Quaternary glacial cycles have been key drivers of diversification for Holarctic species, promoting divergence, isolation, and extinction processes in numerous taxa. These cycles facilitated evolutionary radiations in some groups but also …

Assessing the Risks of Extreme Droughts to Amphibian Populations in the Northwestern Mediterranean Open
Amphibians are particularly vulnerable to hydric stress due to their permeable skin, biphasic life cycle, and strong dependence on aquatic and moist terrestrial environments. In the Northwestern Mediterranean Basin—one of Europe’s most cli…
