Seasonal dynamics in terrestrial insect communities after the impact of the Brumadinho tailings dam disaster

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 3, Page 634-646, May 2026.
Despite severe habitat loss, insect species richness, seasonal fluctuations in richness and temporal β‐diversity did not differ significantly among forests adjacent to the mudflow and reference sites. We found higher wet‐season species richness for ants, bees, butterflies and dung beetles, while termites showed no seasonal change; β‐diversity was ...

No evidence for missed mutualists in an invasive plant with the buzz pollination syndrome

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract The missed mutualist hypothesis predicts that the absence of mutualistic partners poses a barrier to introduced species becoming invasive. Yet, some alien plants thrive despite potential dependence on certain pollinators. For example, buzz‐pollinated plants typically have specialist floral morphologies and benefit from buzz pollinator behavior

Pollination and plant reproduction in the Cerrado, the world's most biodiverse savanna

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 1, Page 74-105, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The Brazilian Cerrado is a continental‐wide biodiversity hotspot and the most species‐rich savanna ecosystem in the world. The main aspect characterising this biodiversity is that the landscape is arranged as an intricate mosaic of different plant formations, including grasslands, savannas, and forests, each harbouring distinct but ...

Urban rendezvous: Spatiotemporal overlap is more important than abundance and trait matching for urban plant–pollinator interactions

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 1, January 2026.
Our study shows that the generalized structure of urban plant–pollinator interactions is mirrored in the mechanisms that shape them, as interactions are governed primarily by less restrictive drivers such as abundance and spatiotemporal overlap rather than by trait matching.
