Two new species of Calea ser. Multiplinerviae (Asteraceae: Neurolaeneae) from Brazil

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 9, September 2026.
Detailed studies of specimens from Rondônia and Mato Grosso do Sul showed that two new species have been misidentified: Calea micropappa resembles Calea pilosa, but differs by leaf apex obtuse to acuminate (versus acute), paleae present (versus paleae absent), disc corolla lobes 1.2–1.3 mm long (versus 0.7–0.8 mm), and pappus scales 0.1–0.25 mm long ...

Something New Under the Sun: Assessing the Relative Influence of Sunlight Irradiance and Temperature on Activity Patterns in a Conspicuous Dragonfly

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 3, September 2026.
In amberwing dragonfly (Perithemis tenera), solar irradiance in the 550–700 nm range (orange arrows) is only reflected by the colored wings of males (fully orange individuals). Therefore, sunlight intensity may be an important factor driving the effectiveness of their conspicuous wing displays during territorial contests and mating behavior.

Influence of Seasonality on Habitat use and Spatial Distribution Patterns of Tree‐Dwelling Scorpion (Physoctonus debilis) in Brazilian Caatinga

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 3, September 2026.
Habitat selection plays a crucial role in the survival of various animals, primarily due to their ability to identify suitable sites for development. In Caatinga regions, climate seasonality has a strong effect on vegetation, consequently influencing the occurrence and spatial distribution of diverse plant‐associated organisms.

Checklist of Orchidaceae From Brazilian Amazon Restingas

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Botany, Volume 64, Issue 3, September 2026.
In Brazil, restingas (coastal sandbank vegetation) are distributed along the coast in the Atlantic Forest, Caatinga, Cerrado, and Amazon phytogeographic domains. Orchidaceae is one of the botanical families with the greatest species richness in restingas in the Atlantic Forest but has been poorly documented in Amazonian restingas, resulting in limited ...

Habitat loss reshuffles ecological and evolutionary interactions in a seed dispersal network

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2026, Issue 9, September 2026.
In tropical forests, habitat loss reshapes species composition, favoring generalists and recently emerged lineages while specialists and older evolutionary lineages are lost. However, how changes in species ecological attributes and evolutionary history affect ecological processes is poorly explored.

Ethnobotanical insights into the medicinal and food uses of Lamiaceae in the Mediterranean region: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1500-1516, September 2026.
For generations, Mediterranean communities have used Lamiaceae or Labiatae plants like rosemary, thyme or mint to care for their health and to enrich their food. By bringing together dispersed knowledge from across the Mediterranean region, our review revealed the continuing relevance of Lamiaceae while also compiling past uses that may hold future ...
