This #OpenAccess research provides the first genetic evidence that native grass snake populations in Berlin have been compromised by the introduction of at least one foreign subspecies, originating from the southern Balkans and western Asia Minor. bit.ly/3S0bojh @fg-wild.bsky.social 🌍 #EvosSky
Together with @stacheljochen.bsky.social, we finally solved the mystery of striped grass snakes in Berlin. #Natrix 🐍 Find our #NewPaper here: link.springer.com/article/10.1...
🐢Based on 1,770 records of non-native #terrapins in Germany, drawn from published sources and publicly available #citizenscience #data, researchers have confirmed the presence of 14 wild non-native terrapin species in Germany. ➡️Find out which ones in our #OA journal: doi.org/10.3897/neob...
For the first time, we published an overview on alien turtle species in Germany. 🐢 @neobiota.pensoft.net Combining #CitizenScience data with data of local authorities, we found 14 species to be introduced to the wild. @sgn.one @mfnberlin.bsky.social neobiota.pensoft.net/article/1786...
Striking diversity and distribution of non-native chelonians in Germany
The introduction of non-native species has created significant global biodiversity challenges, both directly and indirectly, affecting native ecosystems and biodiversity. Since the 1930s, with a peak ...

Congratulations to the winners of Nature’s 2025 #ScientistAtWork photo competition. The overall winner is a photo of biologist Audun Rikardsen, taken by his PhD student Emma Vogel, scanning the waters for whales near fishing trawlers in the fjords of northern Norway. 🧵 #SciArt #Academicsky 🧪
Some cool #amphibian species I found in the last weeks: Bufotes viridis, Hyla arborea, Bombina bombina, Pelobates fuscus.
Hey #frog people! If you are using @inaturalist.bsky.social, please feel invited to the new „Frogs in Amplexus“ project! We try to collect all amplexi, (to be) recorded on iNat. So please consider to add your future amplexus observations, or such that you help identifying/correcting. #amphibians
New paper in @nature.com led by @patricepottier.bsky.social! We demonstrated global vulnerability of amphibians to warming, threatening 10% of >5,000 species examined. How did we do it? See thread🧵 Paper: www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Our #herpetology lab from MfN Berlin eventually made it to the blue sky as well ✌🏼 Feel free to follow! bsky.app/profile/roed...

To kick-off my Bluesky, I want to highlight a paper from earlier this year - the first one together with my best friend @stacheljochen.bsky.social 👬🏼 We report several #Natrixnatrix from #Berlin with untypical pattern. Hopefully, we can find out what’s happening there genetically, next year.
