Impact of global change on the distribution of mountain mammals and birds

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Climate change and land‐use changes are key drivers of global biodiversity loss. Many species are shifting to higher elevations or latitudes in response to global warming, often encountering unfavorable land‐use conditions during the shift. These changes can lead to reduced range size and increased extinction risks, particularly for mountain ...

Methodology to identify ecologically matching areas and its applications in conservation planning

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Identifying ecologically matching areas is both challenging and critical for understanding spatial patterns of biodiversity and advancing conservation planning. However, existing approaches often lack spatial flexibility, overlook shape and size constraints, or rely on limited environmental parameters, reducing their effectiveness in real ...

Tachinidae (Diptera) as Floral Visitors and Pollinators in Natural and Managed Systems

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
We review the roles of bristle flies (Tachinidae) as pollinators in natural and managed systems. We find that most tachinid genera visit flowers and that floral‐adapted mouthparts have evolved repeatedly many times in the family. We review patterns of floral specificity and assess the efficacy of tachinids as pollinators with case studies.

An AI‐Driven Biomass Estimation Tool Enabling Population‐ and Specimen‐Level Variation Analyses: A Case Study on Parasitoid Flies

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
We present the first ecological application of InsectMorphoAI, a tool estimating curvilinear body length and body volume from two‐dimensional fly images. Applying this approach to tachinid flies from a Mediterranean forest near Rome, Italy, we quantified species composition, abundance, body size, body proportions, and biomass proxies in assemblages ...
