[Abstract] The theory of evolution is one of the greatest scientific achievements in the intellectual history of humankind, yet it is still contentious within certain social groups. Despite being as robust and evidence-based ...

Cave bear's diet: a new hypothesis based on stable isotopes

Vila, Marta; Fernández Mosquera, Daniel; Grandal-d'Anglade, Aurora (Universidade da Coruña, 2001)

[Abstract] The Ursus spelaeus diet has always been a controversial topic in Paleontology. Both, morphometric and isotopic studies, have raised the hypothesis of herbivorism for this extinct ursid that belongs to the order ...

Census and Contemporary Effective Population Size of Two Populations of the Protected Spanish Moon Moth (Graellsia Isabellae)

Marí-Mena, Neus; Naveira, Horacio; López-Vaamonde, Carlos; Vila, Marta (Wiley, 2019-03-02)

[Abstract] 1. Graellsia isabellae is a protected lepidopteran both in France and Spain; however, there has been considerable debate over its conservation status. Recent literature emphasised the need of monitoring population ...

Fernández Mosquera, Daniel; Vila, Marta (Universidade da Coruña, 2000)

Determinants of Eurasian Otter (Lutra Lutra) Diet in a Seasonally Changing Reservoir

Martínez-Abraín, Alejandro; Marí-Mena, Neus; Vizcaíno, Antón; Vierna, Joaquín; Veloy, Carlos; Amboage, Moraima; Guitián-Caamaño, Amanda; Key, Charlie; Vila, Marta (Springer, 2020-03-03)

[Abstract] Otter diet in reservoirs is known to experience seasonal changes. We selected a reservoir with a large population of exclusively wintering great cormorants and seasonal changes in stored water volume to test the ...

Effects of environmental changes during the quaternary on the distribution of extant species :|bthe case of the butterflies "Erebia triaria" and "E. palarica"

Vila, Marta (2004)

[Abstract] Although phylogeography has only recently emerged as a research field in its own right, several models are already treated as fact and are widely accepted to be true. My thesis critically examines three of ...

Identification of ambiguous fossil bone remains following 13C and 15N isotopic signals on bone collagen

Vila, Marta; López González, F.; Grandal-d'Anglade, Aurora (Universidade da Coruña, 2001)

[Abstract] In this paper we deal with an useful application of isotopic studies on fossil bone remains. Following δ1 3C and δ1 5N signals recorded in bone collagen, it is possible to classify into the proper taxon some ...
