Simulating drying and human impacts on river networks to evaluate biological quality indices performance through the lens of metacommunity theory

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 5, May 2026.
This work constitutes a first step towards developing simulation‐based assessments that incorporate catchment drying patterns to support biomonitoring of drying river networks. Our approach can inform stakeholders when current methods are likely to fail and contribute to decision‐making on whether adapting current methods is possible or developing new ...

BIEN: A biodiversity informatics ecosystem advancing open and reproducible workflows for plant observation, plot and trait data

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1556-1584, May 2026.
Abstract The rapid expansion of biodiversity data presents new opportunities to understand and forecast biosphere dynamics. However, disparate and dispersed data, taxonomic and geographic inconsistencies, pervasive quality issues, and a lack of reproducable workflows hinder synthesis, introduce biases and limit accurate assessment of biodiversity ...

Morphological, Molecular, and Isotopic Approaches to Termite Ecology: A Mangrove Case Study

Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 3, May 2026.
Termite communities in Caribbean mangroves, though species‐poor, sustain crucial decomposition and nutrient cycling. Their overlapping niches and stochastic assembly highlight termites' resilience and ecological importance in supporting the functioning of these challenging coastal ecosystems.

Incumbency Advantage and the Role of Political Parties in the Electoral Authoritarianism: Evidence From Hong Kong Legislative Council Election (1998–2016)

Asian Politics &Policy, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT This study reframes Hong Kong's Legislative Council geographical constituency elections as a case of limited competition produced by institutional design.

Chrysoperla externa (Neuroptera: Chrysopidae) as a Potential Biological Control Agent of Raoiella indica (Acari: Tenuipalpidae)

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 4, Page 335-342, April 2026.
First and third instar Chrysoperla externa showed efficient predatory capacity at low R. indica density, but second instar C. externa exhibits a density‐dependent predatory ability. The lacewing C. externa shows promise as a biocontrol agent for R. indica in coconut because it consumed 8362 R. indica females across all its larval instars.

Low abundance of phytophagous nematodes under invasive exotic Pinus elliottii – enemy release and plant–soil feedbacks

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 6, Page 3060-3071, March 2026.
Summary According to the enemy release hypothesis (ERH), the fitness of exotic plants and their capacity to become invasive in their area of introduction may partly be attributable to the loss of their natural enemies. Invasive species may also benefit from modifying soil attributes and thereby creating a positive soil–plant feedback.
