In vitro culture, cryopreservation, and field reintroduction of the endangered Mingan thistle

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Current plant conservation efforts are hindered by, for example, poor seed germination, low viability, and insufficient propagation and preservation technologies. To address these problems, we devised an approach to plant conservation that integrates conservation, preservation, and restoration (CPR), which uses advanced in vitro techniques. We

Effects of landscape context on avian specialist response to increased surface temperature in protected areas

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Human development is a driver of global change and a major threat to biodiversity. Protected areas maintain and support biodiversity, but outside stressors, such as climate change and land use change, can negatively influence natural resources within protected areas.

Overlap of nonbreeding wandering albatrosses with fisheries and implications for colony‐specific population trajectories at South Georgia

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Bycatch in fisheries is one of the most serious threats to pelagic seabirds, causing major population declines. Mitigation measures can reduce bycatch substantially, but many fisheries fail to apply best practices, and seabird mortality remains high.

Changing Policy Narratives in Addressing Indonesia's Deforestation

Review of Policy Research, Volume 43, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Indonesia's forests stand at the crossroads of economic prosperity and ecological preservation, where the demand for timber and palm oil clashes with the urgent need to protect biodiversity and mitigate climate change. The dual role of Indonesia's forests has led to decades of policy tension, primarily contesting their function as engines of ...

Spatial segregation and bycatch risk as potential drivers of population trends of wandering albatrosses at South Georgia

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Spatial segregation in at‐sea distribution is frequently observed in seabirds and can have important implications for conservation and management. Globally, many albatross and petrel populations are declining due to bycatch in fisheries. In South Georgia, the decrease in wandering albatrosses (Diomedea exulans) differs among breeding sites ...

Extent of threats to marine fish from the online aquarium trade in the United States

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 1, February 2026.
The global marine aquarium hobby is a multibillion‐dollar industry, largely driven by demand from the United States. Much of this trade occurs online. We web scraped 4 major US‐based e‐commerce platforms selling marine aquarium fish to determine the retail price and source (wild capture, aquaculture, or both) of 13 families of ray‐finned marine fish ...

Novel Natural History Observations on the Reproductive Biology of King Cobra (Ophiophagus hannah) From Yunnan Province, China 云南省眼镜王蛇繁殖生物学的野外观察

Integrative Conservation, Volume 4, Issue 4, Page 523-526, December 2025.
Here we report three cases of nesting behavior in Yunnan Province, China. Our observations confirmed the presence of multi‐individual participation during the nest guarding, and this behavior was associated with an exceptionally high clutch size. ABSTRACT Although the King Cobra (Ophiophagus hannah) has received considerable conservation attention ...

Identifying priority areas for conservation to promote connectivity and mitigate the impacts of anthropogenic disturbance

Conservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 6, December 2025.
Abstract As nations seek to expand protected area (PA) networks to cover 30% of land and seas by 2030 (30×30), there is an urgent need for systematic conservation planning and spatial prioritization that considers the broad range of ecological and socioeconomic factors influencing the persistence of biodiversity.

Assessment of the Threat Status of Bent‐Toed Geckos (Cyrtodactylus) in Indochina: Implementation of the One Plan Approach

Integrative Conservation, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 464-475, September 2025.
This study investigates the diversity, conservation status, distribution, and discovery rate of 84 Cyrtodactylus species in Indochina. Despite rising discovery rates, many species are unassessed, with over half unprotected and 90.5% endemic. This study suggests expanding protected areas and implementing an integrated approach to conservation with IUCN ...
