Summary According to the enemy release hypothesis (ERH), the fitness of exotic plants and their capacity to become invasive in their area of introduction may partly be attributable to the loss of their natural enemies. Invasive species may also benefit from modifying soil attributes and thereby creating a positive soil–plant feedback.

Our study projects significant climate change‐induced distribution shifts of a keratin‐feeding beetle Omorgus suberosus, with expansions into higher latitudes in Europe and North America and notable habitat losses in tropical regions by 2100. Ecological niche models predict a global habitat reduction of 9.5% under SSP2–4.5 and 20.8% under SSP5–8.5 ...

Analysis of morphological attributes as a driver of trade in poison dart frogs
Abstract The unsustainable use of wildlife is a threat to biodiversity on a global scale, and the insatiable demand is driven by the attributes of the species, their parts, and derivatives. However, not all species are equally valued; certain attributes command a higher price. One example is the exotic pet trade in amphibians and reptiles.
