Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 8, August 2026.Vitex L. is a pantropical genus of Lamiaceae comprising 209 taxa. Brazil harbors 35 species, representing nearly 50% of the genus richness in the Neotropics, with the Amazon showing the highest richness, followed by the Atlantic Forest and Cerrado domains. Nevertheless, most taxonomic studies of the genus have been conducted in Africa and Asia.

Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 3, August 2026.ABSTRACT A maximum parsimony analysis based on morphological characters (23 taxa; 98 characters; 1951 scorings) was conducted to test the monophyly of Discocyrtulus Roewer, 1927, and to assess its phylogenetic relationships within Gonyleptidae. The results recover the species currently assigned to Discocyrtulus as phylogenetically distant from ...

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

Pathways of Introduction and Expansion Dynamics of Non‐Native Species in an Island Ecosystem
Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 7, July 2026.ABSTRACT Aim Biological invasions are a global challenge, largely driven by human‐mediated introductions beyond species' native ranges. Island ecosystems are particularly vulnerable, as invasions have caused some of the most profound and detrimental impacts on native and endemic biota.

Effects of parachute science on local research capacity 降落伞科学对当地研究能力的影响
Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 3, June 2026.Abstract Strengthening research capacity is essential to address the global biodiversity crisis. Yet, parachute science often undermines this goal, and its prevalence, costs, and benefits are unclear. We analyzed 13,502 publications on primate research that we extracted from Scopus (1960–2022) to evaluate the effects of parachute science on local ...

Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 2, May 2026.ABSTRACT The neotropical butterfly tribe Ithomiini (Danainae) comprises about 400 species distributed from Mexico to Northern Argentina, 58 of which occur in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest. Among these are two species assigned to the genus Hyalyris Boisduval, 1870: Hyalyris fiammetta (Hewitson, 1852) and Hyalyris leptalina (C. Felder & R. Felder, 1865).

American Journal of Botany, Volume 113, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract Premise Flower color, a key trait influencing plant–pollinator interactions, may be influenced by abiotic factors such as soil. We investigated association between pollinators, soil characteristics, and flower color variations in Digitalis purpurea across native populations in Sweden and introduced populations in Bolivia.

Climate Change Vulnerability and Conservation Priorities for Atlantic Forest Palms
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.Climate change may reduce palm richness in the northern and central Atlantic Forest. Some palms may lose their entire range areas, while others may expand in the future. Range‐restricted palms tend to be more vulnerable to climate change. ABSTRACT Climate change is expected to significantly impact biodiversity, causing shifts in palm species ...
