Refugia or at risk? Alpine snowbank communities in the face of climate change
Conservation Science and PracticeHigh‐elevation alpine snowbank communities across the globe form where deep snow persists late into the growing season, creating unique environmental conditions. These plant communities support species assemblages not found elsewhere.

Alpine Orogeny: Intraplate Deformation
, 2019 The interior of the Iberian Peninsula contains two types of Variscan crust: (i) unaffected or slightly affected by the Mesozoic extensional events related to the breakup of Pangea, and (ii) stretched during the Mesozoic and eventually thickened during the Alpine orogenesis.

Micromorpho‐anatomical studies on the leaves and woods of Turkish Daphne (Thymelaeaceae) taxa
Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.The identification of Daphne taxa is difficult because of the lack of available morphological characteristics. Here, we aimed to describe leaf and wood micromorpho‐anatomical characteristics of native Turkish Daphne taxa (D. glomerata, D. gnidioides, D. mezereum, D. mucronata, D. oleoides subsp. kurdica, D. pontica and D.

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Phialacanthus griffithii Benth. & Hook.f. (Acanthaceae), a species long thought unrecorded, was rediscovered in 2023 after a 160‐year gap in the Upper Dibang Valley, Eastern Himalaya, Arunachal Pradesh. The study presents a comprehensive taxonomic account including lectotypification, morphological description, phenology, habitat ecology, distribution ...

Aster tongrenensis (Asteraceae), a remarkable new species from Guizhou, China
Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Aster tongrenensis (Asteraceae), a remarkable new species from Guizhou, China, is here described, illustrated and compared with related taxa based on integrated evidence from morphology, micromorphology and molecular phylogeny. Morphological and micromorphological observations indicate that A. tongrenensis is most similar to A.

Persistence of arctic-alpine flora during 24,000 years of environmental change in the Polar Urals
Scientific Reports, 2019 Plants adapted to extreme conditions can be at high risk from climate change; arctic-alpine plants, in particular, could “run out of space” as they are out-competed by expansion of woody vegetation.
