Conservation Challenges Under Taxonomic Uncertainty: Introgression Patterns and Environmental Correlates in Mediterranean Brown Trout
(Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, 2025-11-30)The Mediterranean brown trout (Salmo trutta species complex) comprises genetically and ecologically distinct lineages primarily distributed across the Western Mediterranean region. Conservation of the ... -
Leveraging Earth Observation Data to Monitor Boat-Based Recreational Fishing
(Fish and Fisheries, 2025-08-27)Recreational fishing is widespread in coastal zones and exerts significant ecological, fisheries-related and socio-economic pressures. Unlike commercial fishing, small-scale recreational fleets are ... -
Is Draeculacephala robinsoni a new threat to European agriculture? A review on the genus Draeculacephala with special focus on their role as vectors of Xylella fastidiosa
(Entomologia Generalis, 2025-11-10)The recent introduction in Europe of Draeculacephala robinsoni Hamilton (1967), an alien likely vector of Xylella fastidiosa (Xf) native to North America, possibly poses a serious threat to European ... -
