From mainland to islands: the evolution of resistance and tolerance to herbivory in long‐lived oaks

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 10, October 2026.
Island biogeography theory predicts that island plants should exhibit reduced defences compared with their mainland relatives due to relaxed herbivory pressure. However, growing empirical evidence challenges this prediction, revealing substantial variation among systems, plant lineages and defence types.

Can Green Energy Finance and Eco‐Friendly Taxes Cap Global Warming to 2 Degrees and 1.5 Degrees Celsius Above Pre‐Industrial Levels? Uncovering the Synergistic Power of Rule of Law

World Affairs, Volume 189, Issue 4, Winter 2026.
ABSTRACT Anchored on the sustainable development goals (SDGs) and the Paris Agreement, which seek to limit the global average temperature to well below 2°C above pre‐industrial levels and pursue efforts to limit the temperature to 1.5°C, this study investigates how green energy finance and environmental taxes affect environmental quality, with an ...

Co‐phylogeny and biogeography of the myrmecophilous beetle Paussus favieri (Carabidae, Paussinae) and its host ant Pheidole pallidula (Hymenoptera, Myrmicinae)

Insect Science, Volume 33, Issue 5, Page 2210-2226, October 2026.
Strict patterns of co‐divergence have rarely been documented other than among organisms and their symbionts. In this paper, using a molecular approach, we inferr the population‐level phylogenies of a Mediterranean ant species Pheidole pallidula and its nest parasite, the obligate myrmecophilous beetle Paussus favieri. We then investigate the role of co‐

Assessing Spatiotemporal Side Effects of Diversionary Feeding on Mesopredators

Animal Conservation, Volume 29, Issue 5, Page 557-566, October 2026.
We tested whether diversionary feeding alters the space use, aggregation, or activity patterns of mesopredators using a treatment‐control design with camera traps. Although both species frequently used feeding stations, diversionary feeding did not significantly affect their spatial distribution, aggregation, or temporal behaviour.

Assessing and strengthening community‐based coastal governance

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 5, October 2026.
Abstract Community‐based coastal governance is essential for biodiversity conservation and sustainable livelihoods, yet many communities continue to face significant challenges in establishing and sustaining effective governance systems. We sought to improve understanding of the current status of community‐based coastal governance across five countries

Complementary Hotspots of Vegetation Diversity in Andean Patagonian Forests

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Examining spatial relationships among three vegetation diversity metrics—species richness (S), rarity‐weighted richness (RWR) and local contribution to beta diversity (LCBD) as a measure of compositional uniqueness and quantifying the spatial congruence of their hotspots to assess conservation value.
