Habitat connectivity shapes biodiversity outcomes in Indonesia's community‐managed forests

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 8, August 2026.
Our findings suggest that community‐managed forests established within predominantly forested areas can make a meaningful contribution to area‐based conservation, including recognition as Other Effective Area‐based Conservation Measures (OECMs). In community‐managed forests established in more modified production landscapes, targeted restoration and ...

Socio‐demographic drivers of hunting, trade and local ecological knowledge of the yellow‐casqued hornbill (Ceratogymna elata) in the Ebo forest, Cameroon

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 3, July–September 2026.
Using interviews with 267 respondents across 21 villages surrounding Cameroon's Ebo forest, we found that knowledge, hunting and trade of the Vulnerable yellow‐casqued hornbill were structured mainly by age, residency, gender and occupation rather than by geographic proximity alone.

Repositories of biocultural diversity: Toward best practices for empowering ethnobotany in digital herbaria

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 4, Page 1095-1103, July 2026.
Societal Impact Statement As herbaria digitize millions of plant specimens, ethnobotanical information associated with them is becoming increasingly accessible. These biocultural data include plant uses, names, and/or management practices of Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities (IPLCs).

Biodiversity science is improved when silent herbaria speak

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 4, Page 1378-1386, July 2026.
Herbaria in the Global South are critical yet underutilized resources for biodiversity science and often absent from international databases and research networks. We highlight the phenomenon of “silent herbaria” using Nigeria as a case study and quantify how these collections fill important gaps in global biodiversity knowledge.

Diverging Effects of Elevation on Species Richness of Freshwater Organisms: A Global Meta‐Analysis

Freshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT A primary ecological challenge is to disentangle how abiotic factors affect species richness using measured environmental variables in addition to broad proxies such as elevation. Considering direct ecogeographical gradients, such as climate harshness, it is therefore essential to understand whether these underlying abiotic factors might ...
