Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.Abstract Although significant biodiversity has been safeguarded by protected areas (PAs), biodiversity trends continue downward. Within the frameworks of the EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030 and the new EU Restoration Regulation (2024), conserving critical biodiversity areas is essential.

Assessing differences among elasmobranch nurseries to aid conservation based on a genomics framework
Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.Abstract Elasmobranch nurseries often differ in environmental conditions, demographics, and use patterns. These differences affect the distribution of genetic variation among nurseries. However, conservation and management strategies often fail to account for such differences because they are difficult to characterize.

Changes in the transformative potential of action proposals in Finnish Red Lists from 1986 to 2019
Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.Abstract Red lists provide critical knowledge regarding biodiversity decline, especially in Finland, where broad assessments have been made regularly since the 1980s. They deliver information on the threat status of species and ecosystems, propose actions to guide conservation policy, and have the potential to spur transformative change.

Uncovering correlates of decline and critical refuges for a threatened terrestrial mammal
Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.Abstract Globally, the geographic ranges of numerous species are contracting. Identifying spatiotemporal patterns of threat impact can illuminate why species decline in some parts of their range but persist in others. We developed a correlative approach to identify species’ response thresholds and locate ecological refuge areas associated with ...

How identity bias affects perceptions of conservation messages on social media
Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.Abstract Public support is essential for conservation, as public opinion can influence decision‐making and policy. Therefore, understanding whether bias toward conservationists due to their identity (identity bias) affects their perceived credibility and support for their recommendations is important.
