PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Recent shifts in flowering times are an index of, and a response to, human driven climate change. However, most information on these flowering changes is heavily skewed to the northern hemisphere. This imbalance limits our understanding of how climate change is affecting ecosystems, including the mismatches of flowering times between species, increased

Tracing holotype trajectories: Mapping the movement of the most valuable herbarium specimens
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Global efforts to protect biodiversity depend on fair access to key plant specimens. This study examines the distribution of 119,361 holotypes—unique herbarium specimens used to formally describe new plant species. By linking collection and storage data, we found that holotypes are increasingly held closer to their places of origin, particularly in ...
