Forest migration northward. Though "Fagus" and "Picea" populations did not expand directionally, they have grown in the Scandinavian range. The movement of "Picea" species in the past 1000 years has shown a strong connection to climate change through a model comparison. In the more recent past, there has been documentation of elevation shifts in distribution of many core forest tree species of Catalonia. The populations of two tree species (European Beech, "Fagus sylvatica"; and Holm Oak, "Quercus ilex") were evaluated in their dynamics over elevations through time. Generally, Holm Oak reside lower on mountain slopes than does European Beech. In the past
Hylorina sylvatica Larvae are aquatic and found in pools and ponds. While "Hylorina sylvatica" is uncommon and threatened by habitat loss (due to, e.g., logging), IUCN classifies it as of "Least Concern" in view of its wide distribution, presumed large population, and slow rate of decline. Hylorina sylvatica Hylorina sylvatica (also known as the Emerald forest frog, or in Spanish, sapo arboreo) is a species of frog in the family Batrachylidae. It is monotypic within the genus Hylorina. It is found in Argentina and Chile. This species is endemic to the austral "Nothofagus" forests of Chile and Argentina with a narrow distribution
