Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 3, August 2026.ABSTRACT A new species of jewel beetle, Temognatha sundholmi Lang, sp. nov., is described from the Great Victoria Desert in South Australia. A broader investigation, using mtDNA COI ‘barcode’ sequences from 178 specimens representing 54 buprestid species, places the new species with Temognatha flavocincta (Gory & Laporte, 1838) in the informal ...

Tree Climbing in African Lions and Leopards
African Journal of Ecology, Volume 64, Issue 6, August 2026.ABSTRACT Tree climbing has been documented in most felids, but patterns, correlates, and possible functions of this behaviour are not well documented for all species, including the African lion. Using a comparative behavioural ecology approach and drawing on opportunistic field observations from multiple sites in northern Tanzania, I used Bayesian ...

Archaeometry, Volume 68, Issue 4, Page 804-810, August 2026.ABSTRACT This study focuses on two terracotta incense burners discovered in the Daba Al‐Bayah necropolis in the Musandam Peninsula (Oman), associated with an Iron Age collective tomb (LCG‐2). Through gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC‐MS), the organic residues preserved within these artifacts were analyzed to investigate their use and ...

Fire–Moisture Interactions Shape Recovery Trajectories Across Temperate Vegetation Communities
Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 8, August 2026.Future recovery from fire will be governed not only by characteristics of the fire itself and those of the affected vegetation community, but also by the extent to which these characteristics interact with prevailing hydro‐climatic conditions. Favourable soil moisture conditions post‐fire increase the likelihood that ecosystems will recover to a stable

Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi May Account for a Phosphorus‐Facilitation Strategy
Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 8, Page 5196-5209, August 2026.ABSTRACT Mycorrhizal phosphorus (P)‐scavenging strategies are inefficient in severely P‐impoverished environments; yet many mycorrhizal species occur here. How these species acquire P and how their acquisition coordinates with root and leaf traits remain unknown.
