Pollination ecology of Syagrus smithii (Arecaceae), a palm with cantharophily from Colombian Amazon

Revista Peruana de Biología, 2017
From the evaluation floral morphology, reproductive phenology, floral biology, floral visitors and pollinator’s definition, the reproduction strategy of a Syagrus smithii (Arecaeae) in a Colombian Amazonia region was described. Syagrus smithii palms grow

Functional traits predict changes in floral phenology under climate change in a highly diverse Mediterranean community

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 5, Page 1270-1285, May 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plants are shifting their flowering phenology in response to climate change, but trends differ between species and communities. Functional traits can largely explain how different species respond to climate change by shifting their phenology, and can therefore help ...

Dimorphic enantiostyly and its function for pollination by carpenter bees in a pollen‐rewarding Caribbean bloodwort

American Journal of Botany, Volume 113, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Premise Flowers that present their anthers and stigma in close proximity can achieve precise animal‐mediated pollen transfer, but risk self‐pollination. One evolutionary solution is reciprocal herkogamy. Reciprocity of anther and style positions among different plants (i.e., a genetic dimorphism) is common in distylous plants, but very rare in

Mate desertion affects offspring survival, development and physiology in a songbird with multiple parental strategies

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 323-337, February 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Sexual conflict affects the amount and duration of offspring care each parent invests, resulting in multiple parental care strategies sometimes coexisting within a single population.

Fine‐tuning the buzz: comparing visitation frequency and pollination effectiveness in plant–pollinator networks

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 2140-2152, February 2026.
Summary Ecological network approaches have advanced our understanding of how species interactions influence community and evolutionary dynamics. However, a key limitation is that most network analyses rely solely on visitation data, often overlooking functional aspects of interactions.

Endometriosis disrupts oocyte metabolism and cortical granule function, impairing fertilization

Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology
Background Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease strongly associated with reduced oocyte quality and subfertility, yet the underlying cytoplasmic defects remain poorly understood.

Sensitivity of genital and somatic traits of scorpions to developmental instability caused by increasing urbanization: A 20-year experiment

Ecological Indicators, 2021
Urbanization causes the loss of large amounts of habitat and produces significant changes in environmental conditions with consequences in the individual’s behavior, morphology, and physiology in natural populations.
