Inter-patch dispersal of the sedentary butterfly Maculinea alcon ; De verbreiding van het gentiaanblauwtje tussen populaties.

Dispersal, gene flow and sibship analysis of Phengaris (Maculinea) alcon: implications for conservation An Vanden Broeck, Dirk Maes , Andreas Kelager, Irma Wynhoff , Michiel F. Wallisdevries, David R. Nash, J. Gerard B. Oostermeijer & Hans Van Dyck Effective dispersal determines the long-term stability of metapopulations and plays a crucial role in the conservation and evolution of species. For butterflies, dispersal data are mainly based on mark-recapture observations which are usually poor predictors of long-distance dispersal. Detailed knowledge on effective gene flow through dispersal... Mehr ...
