Discrimination of the sister hedgehog species Erinaceus concolor and E. roumanicus (Erinaceomorpha: Mammalia): a geometric morphometric approach
This study investigates skull variation between the two closely related hedgehog species, Erinaceus concolor and E. roumanicus by using geometric morphometric analyses based on 2-dimensional landmarks. For this purpose, a total of 68 specimens were evaluated: 54 E. concolor and 14 E. roumanicus. The results of PCA, ANOVA and MANOVA...Demirtaş, Sadik ; Gündüz, Islam ; Herman, Jeremy S

Were 'Non-Local' Medallions of the Valerianic Dynasty struck at the Mint of Viminacium?
In the most recently published comprehensive survey of the coinage of the Valerianic dynasty (AD 253-368), the late Professor Robert Göbl attributed just two unique bronze medallions to the mint of Viminacium, on the river Danube in modern Serbia. Both bear on the obverse the bust of an unnamed young...Holmes, N M McQ.

Between the Balkans and the Baltic: Phylogeography of a common vole Mitochondrial DNA lineage limited to Central Europe
The common vole (Microtus arvalis) has been a model species of small mammal for studying end-glacial colonization history. In the present study we expanded the sampling from central and eastern Europe, analyzing contemporary genetic structure to identify the role of a potential ‘northern glacial refugium’, i.e. a refugium at a...Stojak, Joanna ; McDevitt, Allan D ; Herman, Jeremy S ; Kryštufek, Boris ; Uhlíková, Jitka …

Post-glacial colonization of eastern Europe by small mammals that survived in the Carpathian refugium: evidence from mitochondrial DNA of the common vole
There is now considerable evidence for the survival of temperate species within glacial refugia that were situated at relatively high latitudes, notably the Carpathian Basin and Dordogne region in Europe. However, the prevalence of fossil remains in such locations is rarely matched by molecular evidence for their contribution to subsequent...Stojak, Joanna ; McDevitt, Allan D ; Herman, Jeremy S ; Searle, Jeremy B ; Wójcik, Jan M
