Urbanization Drives Habitat Suitability of the Invasive Cuban Knight Anole (Anolis equestris) in Florida, USA

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
This study evaluates the climatic and anthropogenic factors driving the habitat suitability of the invasive Cuban knight anole (Anolis equestris) in Florida and its potential impact on three threatened invertebrate species through habitat overlap. Using species distribution models (SDMs), we found that urbanization strongly influences the anole's ...

Recovery mode: Marine protected areas enhance climate resilience of invertebrate species to marine heatwaves

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 8, Page 1879-1893, August 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Marine protected areas (MPAs) can promote population recovery from climate change impacts by reducing local stressors like fishing. However, with extreme climatic events such as marine heatwaves (MHWs) increasing in frequency and duration, it remains unclear whether ...

Gaidropsarus mauritanicus (Gadiformes, Gaidropsaridae) a new three‐bearded rockling from a deep‐water coral ecosystem with a genetically verified biogeographical distribution of the genus and notes to its ecology and behavior

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, Volume 105, Issue 6, Page 1643-1665, December 2024.
Abstract Gaidropsarus mauritanicus sp. nov. is described from one specimen collected using a grab sample from the Tanoûdêrt Canyon (ca. 20° N) off Mauritania at a depth of 595 m. The new species was further observed during eight remotely operated vehicle (ROV) dives along the Mauritanian slope southwards down to the Tiguent Coral Mound Complex (~17° N)

The assembly and dynamics of ecological communities in an ever‐changing world

open access: yesEcological Monographs, Volume 94, Issue 4, November 2024.
Abstract Alternative perspectives on the maintenance of biodiversity and the assembly of ecological communities suggest that both processes cannot be investigated simultaneously. In this concept and synthesis, we challenge this view by presenting major theoretical advances in structural stability and permanence theory.

Trade and socioeconomic importance of an invasive giant snail in the endemic‐rich island of São Tomé, Central Africa

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 5, October 2024.
Abstract Managing invasive species is crucial to mitigate their negative impacts on ecosystems, yet conflicts may arise when their social benefits are disregarded. Human pressure on the endemic‐rich forests of São Tomé has been high since the island was discovered by the Portuguese in the 15th century, and numerous species have been introduced.

Social valuation of biodiversity relative to other types of assets at risk in wildfire

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 3, June 2024.
Abstract Environmental crises, such as wildfires, can cause major losses of human life, infrastructure, biodiversity, and cultural values. In many such situations, incident controllers must make fateful choices about what to protect—and hence what to abandon.
