Vincenzo Gervasi, Auteur ; Paolo Ciucci, Auteur ; John Boulanger, Auteur ; Ettore Randi, Auteur ; Luigi Boitani, AuteurWhen dealing with small populations of elusive species, capture-recapture methods suffer from sampling and analytical limitations, making abundance assessment particularly challenging. We present an empirical and theoretical evaluation of multip[...]
Article
Moreno Di Marco, Auteur ; Carlo Rondinini, Auteur ; Luigi Boitani, Auteur ; Kris A. Murray, AuteurAnthropogenic threats drive species to extinction and are the focus of extinction risk analyses and conservation planning. Threats are often quantified through higher level proxies, such as the human footprint (HF). We tested the effects that mu[...]

Luigi Maiorano, Auteur ; Alessandra Falcucci, Auteur ; Luigi Boitani, AuteurIn the last 40 years, Italy has seen important changes: human pressure is increasing in flat and coastal areas while internal mountainous areas are being abandoned and naturally reforested. These changes have substantial impacts on the biodivers[...]
Article
Carlo Rondinini, Auteur ; Federica Chiozza, Auteur ; Luigi Boitani, AuteurThe identification of priority sites that ensure the achievement of conservation goals is key to direct conservation efforts. An estimation of the level of vulnerability of each priority area allows the identification of sites that need urgent c[...]

Cecere, Auteur ; Fernando Spina, Auteur ; Susanne Jenni-Eiermann, Auteur ; Luigi Boitani, AuteurNectar exploitation by European birds mainly refers to passerines feeding on exotic plants, although some recent studies described nectar-feeding by trans-Saharan passerines on local plants. We examined which birds and plants are involved in nec[...]

Paolo Ciucci, Auteur ; Gianluca Catullo, Auteur ; Luigi Boitani, AuteurCounting roaring stags during the rut has been proposed as a means to assess deer population size and trends but few, if any, attempts have been made to evaluate the reliability of this technique. By means of a commonly used field protocol, we a[...]
