Habitat loss and degradation are causing collapses in freshwater fish in the Mediterranean region, where habitat restoration actions are still hampered by poor understanding of fish habitat selection and fitness. Here, we combined field surveys and laboratorial experiments to investigate how water velocity, body size and intra-specific interactions influence habitat selection and foraging success by the highly ...

The genus Euphorbia (Euphorbiaceae) is one of the most diverse plant genera, and shows a great diversity across Africa. This genus is the largest endemic plant radiation in Angola, including 82 native species with a large diversity of life forms (e.g. herbs, sh...
