Trophic Niche Overlap Between the Invasive Crab Rhithropanopeus harrisii (Gould, 1841) and Native Crab Species in the Southwest Atlantic Coast

open access: yesMarine Ecology, Volume 47, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT The introduction of exotic species is one of the main drivers of biodiversity loss in aquatic ecosystems. The Harris mud crab Rhithropanopeus harrisii, native to the Atlantic coast of North America, was recorded in the Patos Lagoon estuary (southern Brazil) in the 1980s, likely introduced via ballast water. However, the effects of this invader

Phylogeographic Patterns Are Strongly Associated With Biogeographic Patterns in the Irano‐Anatolian Global Biodiversity Hotspot

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 9, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Biogeographic breaks, that is, shifts in overall species composition, are expected to be associated with phylogeographic breaks because of shared ecological or evolutionary factors operating at both the interspecific and intraspecific level.

Invasive plants optimize leaf nitrogen allocation in photosynthesis

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 3, Page 1522-1534, May 2026.
Summary Invasive plants often outcompete co‐occurring native species by expressing acquisitive functional traits that promote high photosynthetic capacity. However, it remains unclear whether these traits are newly evolved in the introduced (‘away’) range or if invaders arrived preadapted with superior traits from their native (‘home’) range.

Assessing functional diversity and composition using multispectral images in Atlantic Forest restoration sites

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 4, May 2026.
Abstract Introduction By focusing on the specific functional traits of species, we can better understand how ecosystems function and respond to environmental change. However, field measurements of functional traits can be time‐consuming and costly, whereas remote sensing data can serve as viable alternatives for studying biodiversity at larger scales ...

Seeding in single species aggregations promotes evenness of diverse shrub species in Banksia woodlands in the first year of growth

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 4, May 2026.
Abstract Introduction Species interactions are an overlooked yet important determinant of plant community assembly in ecological restoration. Specifically, they may determine species that are helped or hindered by neighboring plants during community assembly. Evidence suggests that intraspecific aggregation in combination with interspecific segregation
