Across the edge: Spatial segregation drives community structure in tri-trophic multilayer networks at a forest-grassland edge. [PDF]

J Anim Ecol
This study reveals how forest–grassland edges act as ecological barriers that shape tri‐trophic interaction networks. Using multilayer network theory, it uncovers how species influence and biodiversity patterns emerge across spatial layers, offering novel insights into edge‐driven community assembly and conservation in fire‐prone mosaics.

Dispersal Ability Reduces Thermal Specialization and Prevents Climate-Driven Extinctions in a Neotropical Rainforest. [PDF]

Glob Chang Biol
We found that species with higher dispersal ability are less specialized in their temperature tolerances and more likely to persist under climate change. By analyzing more than 6 thousand species of plants, invertebrates, and vertebrates distributed in the Atlantic Rainforest, we show that more mobile species can avoid extinction by shifting locations,

Taxonomic Novelties in Senna ser. Bacillares (Leguminosae, Cassieae)

Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2023, Issue 9, September 2023., 2023
Senna ser. Bacillares (Leguminosae, Cassieae) is the largest of the American Senna series, with approximately 50 species. Several taxa are still poorly known or with problematic delimitation. Based on extensive fieldwork and collection‐based research for our ongoing taxonomic studies on Senna ser. Bacillares, we identified two new species which we here

Seasonality in niche occupation revealed through bird community functional structure in the southern Atlantic rainforest

Ibis, Volume 165, Issue 3, Page 986-997, July 2023., 2023
Seasonal variation in tropical and subtropical systems can have different effects on bird species depending on the resources they use and how they use them. However, despite recent research advances, knowledge of the drivers of the presence and abundance of species in different seasons is still limited for most tropical bird species.

Forest conversion into pasture selects dung beetle traits at different biological scales depending on species pool composition

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 4, April 2023., 2023
Briefly, we assess the impacts of forest conversion on the functional diversity of dung beetles in two different regions of Brazil, considering in particular intraspecific variation. To do this we conducted standardized surveys in seven forest fragments and adjacent pastures for every region and measured fourteen traits in individuals collected in each

Sleeping accommodations for researchers increase the likelihood of biodiversity inventories in protected areas 在保护区内为科研人员提供住所，可增加创建生物多样性名录的可能性

Integrative Conservation, Volume 2, Issue 1, Page 62-68, March 2023., 2023
Biodiversity assessments are needed to better understand biodiversity distribution and threats in parks. Our results showed that arthropod inventories are more likely if park accommodations are available for researchers. Small investments in providing accommodations may increase biodiversity assessments in parks.
