Canscora agni (Gentianaceae), a new species from the fire‐prone Indian savannas

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
We describe Canscora agni from the Indian savannas as a distinct species which differs from its allied species Canscora alata in having fewer and shorter leaves, pedicel‐wings unequal across the length, bracts with glandular hair on the margins, calyx‐wings being four, wider, up to 2.3 mm, with distinct reticulate venation and having ovary length up to

Benthic megafauna and the functioning of macroalgal forests and urchin barrens

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Two temperate rocky reef food‐web models, representing the trophic diversity of the Mediterranean rocky reef communities, were built for the two stable states: macroalgal forests and barren grounds, which are characterized by opposite amounts of erect macroalgal biomass.

Linking regional and global functional trait data: insights from mammal communities in a fragmented Atlantic Forest landscape

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Accurate functional trait data are essential for understanding ecosystem services and processes in fragmented landscapes. We evaluated whether the global EltonTraits 1.0 database adequately represents the functional structure of mammal communities in forest fragments and restoration sites in a highly fragmented Atlantic Forest landscape.

Inequalities in intraspecific plant–lemur interactions drive seed dispersal patterns

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Biotic interactions occur between individuals and accumulate to shape species‐level interaction structure across a community. Skewed interaction structures, where a few individuals are highly connected and most have few interactions, are increasingly identified at the individual‐level.

Seed co‐occurrence caused by shared frugivores leaves a long‐lasting signal in the spatial co‐occurrence among plants

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
By dispersing seeds, frugivorous animals affect spatial co‐occurrence of plants, ultimately influencing plant community dynamics. Frugivorous animals are intrinsically involved in plant community dynamics, by dispersing seeds of fleshy‐fruited plants and influencing their spatial co‐occurrence.
