Climate Resilience and Sustainability, Volume 5, Issue 1, June 2026.A spatial representation of the potential ‘adaptation effort’ that might be needed to maintain at least 75% of the species modelled in Biebrza National Park, Poland (white outline), at 1.5°C. The darker the green shading, the less adaptation would be needed.

A glimpse of the tropics : spiders (Araneae) in the greenhouses of the Botanic Garden Berlin-Dahlem [PDF]
, 2010 In a survey of the spider fauna in greenhouses of the Botanic Garden Berlin-Dahlem, 30 spider species were recorded. Two species are new to Europe: Theotima minutissima (Petrunkevitch, 1929) and Heteroonops spinimanus (Simon, 1891). T. minutissima is the

African Journal of Ecology, Volume 64, Issue 2, March 2026.ABSTRACT In this paper, we explore spider diversity and the effects of habitat types on spider distribution in the three different types of habitats in Eastern Cape Province of South Africa. This serves as an invaluable tool for biodiversity assessment while documenting the presence of spiders taxa across different habitats in the selected study areas.

Habitat Modification by Grazing Lawns Reduces Soil Mite Diversity in a South African National Park
African Journal of Ecology, Volume 64, Issue 2, March 2026.ABSTRACT Soil mesofauna are an integral part of the functioning of an ecosystem. They are relatively small in body size, occur in varying habitats and operate in a range of ecological niches. Soil mites are quite sensitive to changes in their environment and contribute to several important ecosystem services in their environments.
