Combined heat and drought affect the abundance, composition and diversity of subalpine surface‐active soil arthropod communities

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, Page 98-112, February 2026.
We applied factorial soil warming and moisture reduction treatments directly in the field in the Australian subalpine to assess changes to surface‐active soil arthropod abundance, diversity and community composition. After identifying nearly 50,000 specimens to order, we found a stronger effect of sampling month than treatment.

Collembola Community Structure as a Tool to Assess Land Use Effects on Soil Quality

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Ciência do Solo
: Collembolan species are differently affected by soil tillage (conventional, minimum tillage, and no-tillage) and are known to modify plant growth. This study relies on the relationships between Collembola community structures and land use systems as a ...

Vegetation biomass and landscape context influence web‐building spider dietary breadth in urban vacant lots

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, Page 126-140, February 2026.
Spider dietary breadth and overlap increased with imperviousness, suggesting that prey and spiders are concentrating in vacant lots in these landscapes. Higher vegetation biomass, which results from reduced mowing frequency, was associated with increased dietary breadth and shared prey between spiders.

Monitoring the Prevalence and Distribution of Chytrid Fungus (Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis) in the Kihansi Spray Toad (Nectophrynoides asperginis) Population in the Kihansi Gorge Spray Wetlands, Tanzania

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
How to manage the continued impact of Chytrid fungus on Kihansi Spray Toad population in the wild. ABSTRACT Chytridiomycosis, caused by the fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd), is fatal to some amphibian species, whereas others can carry the pathogen without developing disease.

The amount of reachable habitat determines population fate

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2026, Issue 1, January 2026.
The scientific community remains divided on the most effective way to design landscapes for biodiversity conservation or restoration. Although there is a consensus that habitat loss is the main cause of biodiversity decline worldwide, the extent to which fragmentation (i.e.

Spatial Patterns and Environmental Influences on Soil Surface Collembola in Forest and Non-Forest Ecosystems

open access: yesJournal of Natural Resources and Environmental Management
Forests are one of the ecosystems with different habitat characteristics for certain species. The transition from forest to non-forest will affect the ecosystem and its resident species.

How the small host the small: cryptogam trait‐mediated structuring of Antarctic microarthropod communities

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2026, Issue 1, January 2026.
Primary producers shape terrestrial biodiversity, but most research has focused on vascular plants, while the role of cryptogams (mosses, lichens and algae) remains under‐explored. Cryptogams dominate Antarctic vegetation and support diverse microarthropod communities. However, how cryptogam traits influence these communities remains poorly understood.
