Unexpected spatial aggregation between two species of hummingbirds and their inconsistent spatial interactions with native and exotic plants in an urban ecological reserve

Ibis, Volume 167, Issue 4, Page 927-944, October 2025.
Hummingbirds play an important role as pollinators and are one of the primary examples of animal–plant coevolution. However, factors such as land‐use change, urbanization, exotic species introductions and the disappearance of native plants can negatively affect the persistence of hummingbird populations.

Insights on the Potential of Natural Regeneration to Restore Cerrado Open Ecosystems

Austral Ecology, Volume 50, Issue 9, September 2025.
The colonisation potential of native Cerrado species in degraded areas will depend on the remaining underground structures and not on seed rain from nearby conserved remnants. Effective restoration of the Cerrado will not be possible without active restoration, if the bud‐bank are not present in the system.

Over 1200 Non‐Native Species Are Established in the Iberian Peninsula

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 31, Issue 8, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim As a consequence of globalisation, biological invasions have become an increasing concern due to multifaceted ecological and socio‐economic impacts on biodiversity and ecosystem services. Despite the increasing availability and accessibility of data, a comprehensive assessment of established non‐native species and their distribution in the

Fish distribution across altitudinal gradients in the Upper Paraguay River Basin: Implications for conservation in the Pantanal region

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 7, Issue 7, July 2025.
This paper approaches the patterns in fish distribution across the altitudinal gradient in the Upper Paraguay River basin, from uplands to the floodplain. We compiled more than 75,000 available fish records and registered 342 fish species and your distribution along altitudinal gradient. Floodplain portion have higher species diversity than headwaters,

On the Lack of Domestic Dogs in Pre‐Columbian Lowland Amazonia and Their Deep History of Entanglements With Humans in South America

The Journal of Latin American and Caribbean Anthropology, Volume 30, Issue 2, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Data from archaeology, ethnography, and ethnohistory document entanglements of dogs among South American Indigenous societies during pre‐Columbian and colonial times. The prolific presence and uses of dogs in the Central Andes and in parts of the Paraná Basin, Patagonia, and Circum‐Caribbean regions contrast with the conspicuous lack of ...

A low‐cost protocol for the optical method of vulnerability curves to calculate P50

Applications in Plant Sciences, Volume 13, Issue 2, March-April 2025.
Abstract Premise The quantification of plant drought resistance, particularly embolism formation, within and across species, is critical for ecosystem management and agriculture. We developed a cost‐effective protocol to measure the water potential at which 50% of hydraulic conductivity (P50) is lost in stems, using affordable and accessible materials ...
