Oliveira, Alexandra; Medinas, Denis; Craveiro, Joao; Milhinhas, Catarina; Sabino-Marques, Helena; Mendes, Tiago; Spadoni, Giulia; Oliveira, AndréMonitoring the status and trends of wildlife is key to understand how species respond to natural and human- derived threats, and to evaluate and improve conservation planning and management. Large-scale, grid-based assessment of species distribution, abundance, and population trends over time is an important component of biodiversity monitoring. However, such assessments still present important challenges relat...

Metabolism and thermoregulation in the Cabrera vole (Rodentia: Microtus cabrerae).
Mathias, Maria Luz; Klunder, Margreet; Santos, SaraMetabolism and thermoregulation were studied for the first time in the Cabrera vole (Microtus cabrerae), an endemic and threatened rodent of the Iberian Peninsula. Low values of resting metabolic rate (RMR) were registered (1.13 mlO2 g−1 h−1) at the lower limit of the thermoneutral zone (TNZ) (around 33.5 °C). Body temperature increased near the TNZ up to 37.3 °C but remained stable, around 36 °C, at ambient te...
