In semi-arid areas of the Saharan Atlas region in Algeria, 33 tortoises (Testudograeca) were examined for ticks in 2017-2018. All ticks found were adults and they were identifiedas Hyalomma aegyptium. For the total sample studied, the infestation prevalence was 63.6 %. The mean infestation…

Jiménez-Franco MV, Giménez A, Rodríguez-Caro RC et al. · Ecology and evolution · 2020-02 · open access
Mate searching is a key component of sexual reproduction that can have important implications for population viability, especially for the mate-finding Allee effect. Interannual sperm storage by females may be an adaptation that potentially attenuates mate limitation, but the demographic…

1. Introduction Most tortoises and turtles are struggling to persist in the modern world, a fact that is generally overlooked. The main threats that these species are experiencing worldwide are habitat loss, climate change (because the sex of many tortoises and turtles is determined by their…

Ufuk Bülbül, Ali İhsan Eroğlu, Bilal Kutrup et al. · Sinop Üniversitesi Fen Bilimleri Dergisi · 2019-12 · open access
Many wild animals are exposed to road-kills in the world. Amphibians and reptiles which live near the roads are the most endangered groups among vertebrates related to the road-kills. However, there are only few studies related road-kills of amphibians and reptiles in Turkey. We recorded 23…
- Impact of habitat loss on the diversity and structure of ecological networks between oxyurid nematodes and spur-thighed tortoises ( Testudo graeca L.).
Benítez-Malvido J, Giménez A, Graciá E et al. · PeerJ · 2019-12 · open access
Habitat loss and fragmentation are recognized as affecting the nature of biotic interactions, although we still know little about such changes for reptilian herbivores and their hindgut nematodes, in which endosymbiont interactions could range from mutualistic to commensal and parasitic. We…

- Population density of the spur-thighed tortoise Testudo graeca declines after fire in north-western Africa.
Chergui B, Rodríguez-Caro RC, Graciá E et al. · PloS one · 2019-08 · open access
Fire is a key ecological process in several biomes worldwide. Over recent decades, human activities (e.g. rural abandonment, monoculture plantations) and global warming are magnifying the risk of fire, with changes in fire intensity and frequency. Here, we offer the first study that examines the…
