Single-gene speciation: mating and gene flow between mirror-image snails (2017)
Journal Article
Richards, P. M., Morii, Y., Kimura, K., Hirano, T., Chiba, S., & Davison, A. (2017). Single-gene speciation: mating and gene flow between mirror-image snails. Evolution Letters, 1(6), https://doi.org/10.1002/evl3.31

Variation in the shell coiling, or chirality, of land snails provides an opportunity to investigate the potential for “single-gene” speciation, because mating between individuals of opposite chirality is believed not possible if the snails mate in a...

Reconstructed historical distribution and phylogeography unravels non-steppic origin of Caucasotachea vindobonensis (Gastropoda: Helicidae) (2017)
Journal Article
Kajtoch, Ł., Davison, A., Grindon, A. J., Deli, T., Sramkó, G., Gwardjan, M., …Fehér, Z. (2017). Reconstructed historical distribution and phylogeography unravels non-steppic origin of Caucasotachea vindobonensis (Gastropoda: Helicidae). Organisms Diversity and Evolution, 17(3), 679-692. https://doi.org/10.1007/s13127-017-0337-3

Existing data on the phylogeography of European taxa of steppic provenance suggests that species were widely distributed during glacial periods but underwent range contraction and fragmentation during interglacials into “warm-stage refugia.” Among th...

A pilot study to survey the carnivore community in the hyper-arid environment of South Sinai Mountains (2017)
Journal Article
Gecchele, L. V., Bremner-Harrison, S., Gilbert, F., Soultan, A. E., Davison, A., & Durrant, K. L. (2017). A pilot study to survey the carnivore community in the hyper-arid environment of South Sinai Mountains. Journal of Arid Environments, 141, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jaridenv.2017.01.009

Carnivores are one of the taxa most affected by habitat fragmentation and human persecution; as a result, most carnivore species are declining; for this reason monitoring changes in carnivore population is paramount to plan effective conservation pro...
