Updated Chorotypes of Terrestrial Vertebrates Shed New Light on Zoogeographical Regions in China

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Chorotype represents a fundamental concept for identifying groups of species that share similar distribution patterns. However, the last comprehensive revision of animal chorotypes in China was performed more than a decade ago. Here, we update the chorotype classifications for 1040 species and propose an updated zoogeographical regionalization scheme ...

Identifying hotspots of faunal data deficiency to direct urgent research and monitoring

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Data deficiency is a substantial challenge for extinction risk assessments because incomplete data means we cannot accurately identify priority protected areas for conservation. Here, we use the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) distributions of amphibians, sharks and rays, fish, mammals, birds, and reptiles to identify ...

Natural Parasitism of Nezara viridula (Linnaeus) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) by Trichopoda pictipennis Bigot (Diptera: Tachinidae) in an Organic Strawberry Field in Germany

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Natural parasitism of the invasive southern green stinkbug was recorded in an organic strawberry cropping system in southwestern Germany. The tachinid fly Trichopoda pictipennis shows successful establishment and field activity, indicating ongoing range expansion.

Mapping wild bee diversity and flower use for an effective conservation of the Doñana biodiversity hotspot

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
We compiled the first checklist of wild bees in Doñana Protected Area, documenting 385 species, including three vulnerable and one endangered species listed in the Red List. Bee species exhibit diverse floral preferences, highlighting the need to incorporate plant–pollinator interactions and the role of plants in conservation and management strategies ...

The extension of the taxon cycle model to island plants: insights from the Canarian vascular flora

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 2053-2076, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Taxon cycle models describe eco‐evolutionary patterns of lineage colonization, diversification, and decline across archipelagos, inferring an important role for competition amongst ecologically similar taxa in driving concurrent niche changes.

Testing a method for quantifying structural redundancy in ecological communities

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 8, Page 2405-2420, August 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract In ecological communities, some taxa contribute to ecosystem functioning in highly similar ways. When numerous taxa within a community contribute similarly, this might suggest a degree of functional redundancy, where the loss of one species may not impair ecosystem ...

Abiotic Drivers of Groundwater Fauna Across Aquifer Types and Urban–Rural Gradients in the City of Halle (Saale), Germany

open access: yesEcohydrology, Volume 19, Issue 5, July/August 2026.
ABSTRACT Subterranean ecosystems in urban environments are exposed to multiple anthropogenic stressors that compromise groundwater quality and biodiversity. Rising groundwater temperatures, oxygen depletion, hydraulic disturbance and chemical contamination are among the main pressures.

Zooplankton communities and their responses to fish presence and urban cover across garden and other urban ponds

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract As cities expand globally, the ratio of artificial to natural freshwater habitats is increasing. While public urban ponds have been the subject of an increasing number of biodiversity studies, the biota of garden ponds in private residential gardens, particularly their zooplankton communities, remain largely unknown. We tested whether smaller,
