Ecological niche modeling (and the related species distribution modeling) has been used as a tool with which to assess potential impacts of climate change processes on geographic distributions of species. However, the factors introducing variation into niche modeling outcomes are not well understood…

A confirmed observation of Oxalis dillenii in Spain.— We confirm the presence of Oxalis dillenii Jacq. in the Catalonian province Lleida (Catalonia, Spain). Identification was confirmed morphologically and through DNA barcode sequencing. A map of the distribution of O. dillenii is supplied, as are n…

Because establishing a new population often depends critically on finding mates, individuals capable of uniparental reproduction may have a colonization advantage. Accordingly, there should be an over-representation of colonizing species in which individuals can reproduce without a mate, particularl…
