Assessment and Optimization of Ecological Networks in Trans-Provincial Metropolitan Areas—A Case Study of the Xuzhou Metropolitan Area by Yijia Zhao, Peiyuan Zhang, Hao Xu, Wei Liu

“…In this study, we optimized the identification of ecological sources at the metropolitan area scale by constructing the ‘MIE’ model combined with the threshold analysis method, identified the core ecological sources in the Xuzhou Metropolitan Area, a typical cross-provincial metropolitan area in China, and then extracted the ecological corridors by using the Linkage Mapper tool based on this method. The spatiotemporal patterns and components of the ecological network of the Xuzhou metropolitan area from 1990 to 2020 were assessed, and an optimization analysis was performed based on the current ecological network. …”

Historical biogeography and systematics of yellow-bellied toads (Bombina variegata), with the description of a new subspecies from the Balkans by Christophe Dufresnes, Simeon Lukanov, Sven Gippner, Johanna Ambu, Ilias Strachinis, Dragan Arsovski, Benjamin Monod-Broca, Hugo Cayuela, Petros Lymberakis, Daniele Canestrelli, Dan Cogălniceanu, Nikolay A. Poyarkov, Spartak N. Litvinchuk, Tomasz Suchan, Mathieu Denoël, Daniel Jablonski

“…The analyses support four major lineages, one assigned to B. v. variegata (Carpathians and northwestern ranges), one assigned to B. v. pachypus (Apennine Peninsula), and two assigned to B. v. scabra (Dinarides, Hellenides and Balkanides vs. the Rhodope mountains). Spatiotemporal patterns of diversification suggest a role for a Late Miocene marine incursion in the Pannonian Plain (Paratethys) as the initial trigger of divergence, followed by a vicariance event in the Apennines and a “sky island” process of Pleistocene differentiation in the Balkan Peninsula. …”
