Native trees are related to advanced bird breeding phenology and increased reproductive success along an urban gradient. [PDF]
EcologyAbstract Urban areas are altered from natural landscapes in several ways that can impact wildlife. Birds are widespread in urban areas, and it is well documented that there are phenotypic differences between urban and non‐urban conspecifics. However, little is known about which characteristics of the urban environment are driving differences. We used 9

Fossils of an endangered, endemic, giant dipterocarp species open a historical portal into Borneo's vanishing rainforests. [PDF]
Am J BotAbstract Premise Asia's wet tropical forests face a severe biodiversity crisis, but few fossils record their evolutionary history. We recently discovered in situ cuticles on fossil leaves, attributed to the giant rainforest tree Dryobalanops of the iconic Dipterocarpaceae family, from the Plio‐Pleistocene of Brunei Darussalam (northern Borneo ...

A New Triterpenoid Alkaloid from Buxus sempervirens
Zeitschrift Fur Naturforschung - Section B Journal of Chemical Sciences, 2011 A new triterpenoid alkaloid, 16-deacetoxy-hyrcamine (1), together with six analogs, was isolated from the leaves and stems of Buxus sempervirens. Their structures were elucidated based on spectral methods and by comparison of the spectral data with those reported previously.
