Since 2014, the Fondazione Ethoikos has shared information on the flora and fauna of the “La Selva” forest, near Siena. The electronic archive, previously published online on the Scratchpads platform—an international project supported by the Natural History Museum, ViBRANT, and e-Monocot project—was discontinued in the summer of 2025. Our database is now hosted on GBIF - the Global Biodiversity Information Facility.

The Mostela boxes (Mos and Hoffmeester, 2020) are devices used to detect small mammal species that are difficult to be recorded using standard camera trapping. In August 2025, as part of a study on the distribution and ecology of the snow vole (Chionomys nivalis) in the Gran Sasso and Monti della Laga National Park, our Mostela boxes successfully detected the presence of weasels (Mustela nivalis), small mustelids potential predators of the snow vole.
