Who prefers the dark? Daily activity of dung beetles from an Amazonian region

Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 3, Page 609-613, June 2026.
Daily activity patterns shape how dung beetle species coexist in Amazonian forests, revealing temporal niches that reduce competition and structure biodiversity. We compared species richness, abundance and assemblage composition of dung beetles sampled during day and night in a conserved terra‐firme forest in the Brazilian Amazon. Although richness and

Life‐History and Landscape Context Shaping the Spatial Genetic Structure of the Migratory Amazonian Fish Prochilodus nigricans

Freshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The Neotropical migratory fish Prochilodus nigricans plays a critical ecological and socioeconomic role in the Amazon basin. Nevertheless, little is known about its populations and the genetic diversity pattern of the species. In light of this, the current study investigates the spatial genetic structure and diversity of P.

The Evolution of Hutchinsonian Climatic Niche Hypervolumes in Gymnosperms

Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim The niche is a fundamental concept in theoretical and experimental ecology and is used to describe a wide range of ecological processes from species' interactions with the environment to community assemblies. A common way to represent the niche is through a multidimensional geometry known as the Hutchinsonian niche hypervolume.

Geographic Range and Body Size Influence Abundance Patterns in Reef Fishes

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Understanding how body size and geographic range size influence species abundance is central to macroecology. Here, we characterized these relationships for reef fishes, the world's most diverse vertebrate group, across global and regional scales. Location Global tropical and subtropical reefs. Time Period Current.

Broad‐Scale Climatic Gradients Drive Multiple Facets of Scorpion Beta Diversity in Northeastern Brazil

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Beta diversity analyses clarify mechanisms structuring ecological communities, but their multidimensional facets remain poorly explored in arthropods. Here, we quantified taxonomic, phylogenetic, and functional beta diversity in scorpions, partitioned these facets into species replacement and richness differences, and evaluated the ...

Environmental Filtering Dominates Over Dispersal Limitation in Structuring Highly Mobile Tropical Communities

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim To disentangle the relative roles of environmental filtering (niche processes) and dispersal limitation (neutral processes) in structuring communities of a highly mobile tropical taxon, and to assess the implications for biodiversity patterns at broad spatial scales. Location Brazilian Amazon. Time Period 2011–2019.
