Dietary flexibility and high arthropod availability prevent food limitation in a mountain population of breeding Northern Wheatears

Ibis, EarlyView.
Mountain ecosystems are under strong environmental pressure and are considered highly vulnerable to climate change, which is likely to lead to forest expansion and loss of open alpine grasslands, threatening many specialized species. However, for most alpine birds, even basic ecological knowledge, such as their diet, remains limited, restricting our ...

Taxonomic and functional patterns of arthropod succession after glacier retreat in the Dolomite Alps

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Arthropod succession after glacier retreat varied among species and forelands in the Dolomites Alps, with community composition shaped by glacier identity, time since deglaciation and local environmental conditions. Functional composition shifted from small, highly dispersive pioneer species to larger, less dispersive taxa, reflecting increasing ...

Comparing deep learning models for butterfly and moth (Lepidoptera) species identification

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Deep learning models open new possibilities for the processing of image‐based species records. We used high‐performance computing to compare 40 models for butterfly and moth species identification based on a citizen science dataset with over 500,000 images of 162 species.

Embryonic and larval development of the endangered Chiapas killifish Tlaloc hildebrandi (Cyprinodontiformes: Profundulidae)

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The early ontogeny of endemic freshwater fishes provides essential baseline biological information for conservation and management, particularly in species with restricted distributions and high vulnerability to habitat degradation, environmental change and population decline. This study presents the first detailed description of embryonic and

Rhododendron diversity patterns provide new insights for conserving China's montane flora

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Integrating distribution, phylogenetic, and functional trait data for 603 Rhododendron species in China identified significant conservation hotspots of multidimensional diversity, particularly in the Hengduan Mountains. Climate seasonality and topographic heterogeneity jointly influenced these patterns; however, notable conservation gaps remained ...
