Species richness and floristic composition of Choco Region plant communities Species richness and floristic composition of Choco Region plant communities

open access: yesCaldasia, 1986
The Chocó phytogeographical region of coastal Colombia and adjacent Ecuador is well known as a region of unusually high endemism in plants (GENTRY, 1982a, 1986b), birds (TERBORGH & WINTER, 1982), and butterflies (BROWN, 1975, 1982). The region is also reputed to be unusually diverse biologically (GENTRY, 1978, 1982a) but much of the data base for this ...

Characterising Ecosystem Composition, Structure and Function of Alternative Stable States in Temperate Forests of South‐Eastern Australia

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 5, May 2026.
Alternative stable states established following repeated short‐interval fires in resprouting Eucalyptus temperate forests were associated with declines across multiple ecosystem functions. For example, carbon storage potential was significantly reduced (b: p < 0.001), with alternative states storing substantially less carbon than reference forests ...

The Origin and Diversification of Turmerics (Curcuma L.: Zingiberaceae) in Paleotropical Biodiversity Hotspots: The Role of Ancient Hybridisation and Historical Climate Change

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim To investigate the ecological and evolutionary mechanisms driving biodiversity in the Indo‐Malayan hotspots, with a particular focus on the roles of ancient hybridisation and historical climate in shaping species diversity. Location The Indo‐Malayan realm, particularly the Western Ghats‐Sri Lanka and Indo‐Burma biodiversity hotspots.

Floral resource strips enhance parasitoid abundance and diversity in apple orchards and promote agroecological advances in a South African biosphere reserve

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 3, Page 559-572, May 2026.
Floral resource strips within apple orchards increased parasitoid abundance and influenced community composition, enhancing local biodiversity in the Kogelberg Biosphere Reserve's transition zone. Ruderal and natural fynbos habitats supported higher parasitoid richness and abundance, emphasising the importance of conserving semi‐natural habitats ...

Biogeographical Regionalisation of Southern Africa Using Tenebrionid Beetles: A Multi‐Scale Analysis of Diversity and Environmental Drivers

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Southern Africa's remarkable environmental heterogeneity drives high biodiversity and endemism, yet biogeographical regionalisations often overlook invertebrates despite their ecological significance. This study presents a comprehensive regionalisation of southern Africa using tenebrionid beetles (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae), a diverse and ...
