Bee community assembly is regulated by functional traits in pristine tropical forest environments

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 7, Page 2102-2113, July 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Understanding the drivers of bee beta diversity across pristine environments in the Amazon is critical for ensuring biodiversity conservation, restoration, sustainable land use planning and economic development.

Using individual‐based modelling to anticipate future conflict potential for expanding European bison populations

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 7, July 2026.
Proactively developing and geographically targeting coexistence measures before conflicts become entrenched can improve megafauna restoration success. Our work demonstrates how integrating spatial conflict indicators into individual‐based models enables forward‐looking simulations of range expansion to guide such measures and to assess how they might ...

Long‐term jaguar demography underscores the ecological value of Amazonian floodplains

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 7, July 2026.
Our results provide the first estimates of recruitment and apparent survival for Amazonian jaguars, key parameters for guiding conservation. We show that seasonal wetlands—the Amazonian floodplain forest and reported estimates from Pantanal and the Llanos—harbour the highest jaguar densities across the species' range.

Long‐term aridity shapes grassland drought resistance and modulates the roles of plant diversity and functional composition

Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 7, July 2026.
Widely studied stability drivers such as plant diversity and functional composition have only partial explanatory power for short‐term drought resistance of above‐ground productivity in grasslands at a global scale. The abiotic context, particularly long‐term aridity, is crucial for understanding ecosystem responses to rainfall variation and can ...

Is There Life After Death? The Role of Standing Dead Phorophytes in Supporting Tropical Epiphyte Diversity

Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Global increases in tree mortality from climate change and land‐use are altering forest structures, impacting canopy‐dwelling plants like vascular epiphytes, which depend on host trees (phorophytes). When a phorophyte dies standing, it becomes a snag, the local substrate conditions change and microclimatic exposure may increase, particularly ...
