How microhabitat characteristics influence the females’ nest site selection of the invasive alien species Trachemys scripta in the Angitola Lake (Calabria, Southern Italy) by F. L. Leonetti, A. Crescente, C. Valerioti, G. Paolillo, G. Giglio, I. Bernabò, S. Tripepi, E. Sperone

“…However, the results of the generalized linear mixed model (GLMM) indicate that while distance from the shoreline was significantly influenced by vegetation type (with greater distance in reforested sites), soil type and the continuous variables analyzed (depth, nest diameter, number of eggs) did not show significant effects on nesting distance. The ecological plasticity demonstrated by T. scripta, allowing it to exploit a wide array of nesting microhabitats, presents a significant threat to native turtle species like Emys orbicularis and overall local biodiversity. …”
