Refugia within refugia – patterns in endemism and genetic divergence are linked to Late Quaternary climate stability in the Iberian Peninsula (2014, result): “…by guest on 30 July 2018 Delibes & Godoy, 2009; Ferrero et al., 2011 in the Iberian Peninsula; Canestrelli & Nascetti, 2008 in the Italian peninsula; Ursenbacher et al., 2008 in the Balkan Peninsula), consistent with the withinpeninsula…”
Glacial expansion and diversification of an East Asian montane bird, the green‐backed tit (Parus monticolus) (2013, background): “Furthermore, glacial expansions were hypothesized for the Tyrrhenian tree frog (Hyla sarda; Bisconti et al., 2011) and the pool frog (Rana lessonae; Canestrelli & Nascetti, 2008) due to a vast widening of lowland flood-plain habitats following falling sea levels, which could counterbalance the…”
