Lo Brutto, Sabrina
- Abstract
The Mediterranean Sea hosts the Mediterranean monk seal ( I Monachus monachus i ), one of the most endangered marine mammals in the world. The paper by Fioravanti et al. [[15]] reports the results of the genetic characterization of a monk seal pup stranded on the southern Italian coast, underlining the need to intensify conservation activities for this species as it could be much more widespread than previously thought. The Mediterranean is a sea which, despite its peculiar geomorphological history and ecological-oceanographic features, still receives less attention than it ought to. 28107413 14 Lo Brutto S., Calascibetta A., Pavan G., Buffa G.
