Is There Life After Death? The Role of Standing Dead Phorophytes in Supporting Tropical Epiphyte Diversity

Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Global increases in tree mortality from climate change and land‐use are altering forest structures, impacting canopy‐dwelling plants like vascular epiphytes, which depend on host trees (phorophytes). When a phorophyte dies standing, it becomes a snag, the local substrate conditions change and microclimatic exposure may increase, particularly ...

Unveiling the Global Linnean Shortfall in Leptophlebiidae (Ephemeroptera, Insecta): Historical Trends and Conservation Implications

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding how many species exist on Earth is a fundamental yet challenging question in biology, with significant implications for biodiversity conservation. The Linnean shortfall, or the gap in taxonomic knowledge, remains a major obstacle, particularly in highly diverse groups like insects. This study focuses on the family Leptophlebiidae

Subterranean environments contribute to three‐quarters of classified ecosystem services

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1582-1605, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Beneath the Earth's surface lies a network of interconnected caves, voids, and systems of fissures forming in rocks of sedimentary, igneous, or metamorphic origin. Although largely inaccessible to humans, this hidden realm supports and regulates services critical to ecological health and human well‐being.

Configurational Fragility of Forest Landscapes Under Multiple Anthropic Uses

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
This study revealed that 72.2% of forest fragments and 96.1% of savannas have high configurational fragility, with a predominance of High III and Intermediate I sublevels and occasional occurrences of low fragility (Low III). Fragility is driven by pastures (57.7%), showing that landscapes with the same forest cover differ in fragility depending on the
