The potential contribution of flood management ponds to pondscape biodiversity: Evidence from dragonflies

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 6, Issue 3, July–September 2025.
The creation of ponds to alleviate the impacts of floods has the potential to support freshwater biodiversity. Our study investigates the ecological value of ponds created for Natural Flood Management as part of the Eddleston Water Project, in the Scottish Borders (UK).

iNaturalist and Structured Mammal Surveys Reflect Similar Species Richness but Capture Different Species Pools Across the United States

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2025.
iNaturalist data is widely used in ecology, but is known to contain spatial and taxa‐specific biases. We compared species richness and species pools using data from iNaturalist and structured surveys (i.e., camera traps and acoustic bat surveys) across the United States. We found that iNaturalist and structured surveys generally report similar richness,

Scientists' warning on the need for greater inclusion of dragonflies in global conservation

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 18, Issue 4, Page 465-484, July 2025.
Stressors to dragonflies are multiple, and in many cases interactive. Specialist species are at risk, while generalists can benefit from some human activities. Dragonflies are sentinels for conservation, being promising surrogates for other taxa while also being appealing to citizen science initiatives.
