The Biological Station in Mertola (Portugal) of Paulo Alves ist almost ready to start. Probably in two month the students can start to study the unique nature. This week I had the Chance to visit the Paulo and Noemi Squillaci one of the First PhD students working in the Station.

🌍🐞 Our brand new study reveals that carrion beetles have excellent dispersal abilities, ensuring gene flow across long distances. This highlights the importance of habitat amount over spatial arrangements for their conservation. doi.org/10.1111/een.13…
