Assessing responses of reef island seabirds to environmental and anthropogenic drivers

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 5, October 2026.
Abstract Tropical insular ecosystems face escalating, cumulative impacts of land‐ and sea‐based ecological threats that jeopardize the long‐term sustainability of their native communities. This joint vulnerability is epitomized by reef island seabirds, which are exposed to reef decline and coastal erosion driven by climate change, reduction in prey ...

Impacts of Species Introductions on the Trait Diversity of Interacting Avian Frugivores and Fleshy‐Fruited Plants Depend on Native Trait Diversity

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim The introduction of non‐native species to native ecological communities by humans is a major driver of global biodiversity change. Studying how species introductions influence interacting species is essential to understanding possible functional consequences of global change because biotic interactions are ecologically crucial.

Biogeography and Reinterpretation of the Evolution of Paternal Care Scenario in Belostomatidae (Insecta, Hemiptera)

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim To estimate the origin and diversification times of the main lineages of Belostomatidae, with emphasis on the subfamilies Belostomatinae and Lethocerinae; to reconstruct the biogeographical history of the family's representatives, estimating which locations may have served as important sources of immigration and emigration events and ...

Predictive evolutionary genomics: principles, validation, and practice

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 252, Issue 1, Page 36-48, October 2026.
Summary Climate change and habitat loss are driving rapid evolutionary responses in populations world‐wide, which creates an urgent need for evolutionary forecasting in conservation and agriculture. Such forecasting can be categorized into three time scales: trait‐based models that use multivariate quantitative genetic equations to project correlated ...
