More pumas (Puma concolor) does not change perceptions: The mismatched response of ranchers to the presence of a top carnivore

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 7, Page 2148-2161, July 2026.
Abstract Human‐wildlife conflicts (HWCs) are one of the most critical conservation challenges worldwide. Large carnivores are frequently at the centre of these conflicts because of the perceived and real threats they pose to livestock and human safety.

Exploring Costa Rica's fungal trends: Insights from digitized specimens

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 4, Page 1256-1274, July 2026.
Fungi are essential to tropical ecosystems but remain largely absent from conservation agendas. By analyzing over 78,000 fungal records from Costa Rica—a globally recognized biodiversity hotspot—this study reveals key patterns in fungal diversity, distribution, and seasonality.

Varied motivations for secondary forest reclearing among landholders make forest persistence challenging

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 1943-1956, June 2026.
Abstract Remote sensing studies show that ephemeral forest regeneration is widespread in the tropics, limiting the climate and biodiversity benefits from net increases in forest cover. Socioeconomic, biophysical and landscape variables can help explain the spatial distribution of reforestation reversals.

Contrasting mechanisms driving the northward expansion of African raptors in Europe

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, Volume 329, Issue 2, Page 145-155, June 2026.
Recent climate warming and landscape changes are enabling African raptors to reach Europe through contrasting mechanisms. Using species distribution models, we show that the Atlas Long‐legged Buzzard expands northward following climatic suitability, whereas African vultures reach Europe despite low climatic favourability through socially mediated ...

Amphibians' Expansion to Record Elevations Influences Chytrid (Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis) Infection Dynamics

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 58, Issue 2, March 2026.
Peruvian frogs underwent a climate‐driven range expansion into deglaciating mountains, exposing themselves and their fungal pathogen Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) to challenging new thermal environments. Bd has dispersed extensively in these new habitats, and elevation may mediate the apparent sublethal impacts of infection for frogs.
