The scaling of seed‐dispersal specialization in interaction networks across levels of organization
Ecography, EarlyView.Natural ecosystems are characterized by a specialization pattern where few species are common while many others are rare. In ecological networks involving biotic interactions, specialization operates as a continuum at individual, species, and community levels. Theory predicts that ecological and evolutionary factors can primarily explain specialization.

Ecography, EarlyView.Montane species utilize various habitats along elevations to adapt to seasonality, providing an ideal opportunity to study how species respond to shifting environments. This study characterizes seasonal changes in community structure and elevational distributions across multiple taxa in the Central Himalayas.

Plant sex influences aquatic–terrestrial interactions
Ecosphere, 2020 A growing body of research shows that plant genetic factors can influence ecosystem processes and structure communities, but one aspect that has received little study is sex differentiation in dioecious plants.

Ecography, EarlyView.Habitat is a key aspect of any species' niche and can affect populations at multiple spatial scales. Basic ecology and effective conservation thus require an understanding of which habitats matter and at what scales. Yet, habitat studies are rarely scale‐optimized, and what determines the scale(s) at which populations are affected by surrounding ...

Garcinia kusumae (Clusiaceae): A New Species From Assam, India
Feddes Repertorium, EarlyView.ABSTRACT A new species, Garcinia kusumae (Clusiaceae), is described and illustrated from Assam, India. Detailed comparisons with morphologically similar species are provided to support its novelty. This discovery contributes to the underexplored diversity of Garcinia in Northeast India and highlights the importance of continued botanical exploration in
