Conservation Challenges for Endemic Vascular Plants: Exploring Large‐Scale Patterns in Climate‐Driven Distribution and Distinctive Functional Traits

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 8, August 2025.
The study examines conservation challenges for endemic vascular plants globally by analyzing their distribution patterns and traits that influence resilience, survival, and regeneration under changing environmental conditions. Alarmingly, 58% of endemic vascular plant taxa with conservation assessments are designated as extinct or threatened, three ...

Horizon scanning of potential invasive alien plant species and their distribution in Norway under a changing climate

Ecography, Volume 2025, Issue 8, August 2025.
Invasive alien plant species can cause considerable ecological, economic, and social impacts, and the number of impactful species will likely increase with globalisation and anthropogenic climate change. Preventing potentially invasive alien plant species from becoming introduced is the most cost‐effective way to protect Norway's ecosystems from future

Prey and prejudice: predation by the European bee‐eater Merops apiaster has species‐specific effects on the ecology and genetics of bumblebees

Oikos, Volume 2025, Issue 8, August 2025.
Predation is a major ecological force, but its effect on bees has rarely been studied. Here, we investigated whether the presence of the European bee‐eater Merops apiaster, a migratory bird species and major bee predator, decreases the abundance and body size of three common bumblebee species (Bombus lapidarius, B. terrestris and B.
