Moving beyond environmental filtering hypotheses: Deciphering the drivers of congeneric plant introductions in an oceanic archipelago

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2026, Issue 7, July 2026.
Understanding why only some species succeed in naturalizing and invading ecosystems has intrigued scientists since Darwin's time. The pre‐adaptation hypothesis posits that introduced species closely related to natives, therefore ecologically similar, are more likely to establish than others.

FLORISTIC CONTRIBUTIONS

open access: yesJournal of Plant Development, 2006
The paper represents a part of the research carried out in a five-year period (within my Ph.D. paper called: “The Flora and the Vegetation of the Lower Hydrographic Basin of the River Motru”, coordinated by Professor V. CIOCÂRLAN, Ph.D.). The material contains additional information for the diagnosis of the taxa: Agróstis canína L. subsp.

Age‐related trends in niche position and specialization in Neotropical vertebrates

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2026, Issue 7, July 2026.
Species' niche positions and breadths within a region's environmental space, measured through ecological niche factor analysis (ENFA) as marginality and specialization, can reflect evolutionary constraints related to lineage age. The ‘internal incumbency' hypothesis predicts that older species, due to competitive preemption, occupy more central niche ...

A practical guide to species trend detection with unstructured data using local frequency scaling (Frescalo)

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2026, Issue 7, July 2026.
Accurately measuring biodiversity change remains a central challenge in ecology. Beyond the general idea of quantifying temporal species frequency changes, several sampling‐related biases in data collection remain key methodological challenges to consider. Long‐term standardized ecological data are rare, and most available datasets exhibit considerable

The importance of integrating herbarium records into conservation plans: a case study on Honduran ferns and lycophytes

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 4, Page 1238-1255, July 2026.
Herbarium collections are powerful, yet underutilized, tools for global biodiversity conservation and protected area management. By integrating digitized herbarium records with existing biodiversity data, previously unknown plant species were uncovered, exposing critical gaps in conservation knowledge.
