Is quinoa‐farming sustainable in marginal environments? Social, economical and environmental aspects

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 14, Page 8315-8328, November 2026.
Abstract Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) is an Andean grain crop introduced as a novel crop to many parts of the world in recent years. Recognized for nutritious seeds and high abiotic stress tolerance, it has been promoted as an element of climate‐resilient agriculture, particularly in marginal environments.

Which One Tastes Better? Testing Distinct Baits to Evaluate Fruit‐Feeding Butterfly Assemblages (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae) in a Subtropical Region

Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 4, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Standardised sampling protocols are essential for improving biodiversity assessments, particularly for indicator groups such as fruit‐feeding butterflies. Although fermented banana is the most widely used bait in tropical regions, rotten fish is the best bait for catching fruit‐feeding butterflies in high‐altitude sites.

Ka'aguy Mba'apo: Indigenous Illicit Work and Strategic Opacity in the Interstices of the Paraguay–Brazil Border

PoLAR: Political and Legal Anthropology Review, Volume 49, Issue 2, November 2026.
ABSTRACT This article examines how Indigenous Paĩ Tavyterã/Kaiowa communities along the Paraguay–Brazil border navigate illicit economies that have proliferated amid the expansion of soybean agribusiness and the withdrawal of the state. Drawing on long‐term ethnographic fieldwork in several communities on both sides of the border, it explores how ...

Assessing Habitat Suitability and Exposure of the Endemic Vasconcellea candicans Under Climate Change and Urban Growth in Lima, Peru

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
This study integrated ensemble species distribution modelling and urban growth projections to evaluate current and future habitat suitability of V. candicans in the lomas ecosystems surrounding Lima under climate change and urban expansion scenarios. Results identified 2891 km2 of current high‐suitability habitat, with strong scenario‐dependent future ...

Episodic Arc Behavior in an Accretionary Orogen: Insights From the New England Orogen, Eastern Australia

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Detrital zircon U–Pb geochronology from Triassic–Jurassic basins in the New England Orogen (NEO) constrains sediment provenance and episodic continental arc evolution along the eastern Gondwanan margin. Dominant zircon clusters at 270–230 Ma and 340–300 Ma in these basins were likely sourced from contemporaneous magmatism in the NEO ...

Pollen landscape saturation on pollinator bodies reduces pollen deposition by subsequently visited bat‐pollinated flowers

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 10, Page 3190-3199, October 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Sexual selection in flowering plants often operates through male–male competition, yet the mechanisms underlying this phenomenon remain difficult to demonstrate. One potential arena for such competition is pollen placement on pollinators, where pollen grains from ...

Did Eve Emerge From Evo's Rib? Gendered Complexities Over the Period of MAS Rule in Bolivia

Bulletin of Latin American Research, Volume 45, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The MAS governments in Bolivia (2006–2019) sought to overturn neoliberalism through a decolonial and post‐neoliberal political project informed by indigenous movements, feminist thought, and social movement participation. However, feminist activists and scholars soon argued that MAS discourse and policy increasingly essentialised gender and ...

Identifying hotspots of faunal data deficiency to direct urgent research and monitoring

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 5, October 2026.
Abstract Data deficiency is a substantial challenge for extinction risk assessments because incomplete data means we cannot accurately identify priority protected areas for conservation. Here, we use the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) distributions of amphibians, sharks and rays, fish, mammals, birds, and reptiles to identify ...

A Time‐Calibrated Phylogeny and Historical Biogeography of Leptoceridae (Trichoptera): Diversification Shaped by Gondwanan Fragmentation and Conflicting Evidence for the Family's Origin

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Leptoceridae is the second most diverse caddisfly family, spreading across all biogeographical regions but with a higher species richness in the Oriental region; nevertheless, the Afrotropical, Austral and Neotropical regions have greater genera diversity and endemicity.

Andean bears hunt wild guinea pigs in Colombian paramos

Journal of Tropical Ecology
Abstract It is well documented that Andean bears (Tremarctos ornatus) feed extensively on plants and carrion, but their hunting habits remain understudied. Better understanding and documentation of Andean bear feeding ecology can improve conservation efforts for this vulnerable species.
