Vegetation of montane bogs in east-flowing catchments of northern New England, New South Wales [PDF]
, 2013 The floristics of the montane bogs in east-flowing catchments of northern New England, north-eastern New South Wales (lat 28° 47’–31° 25’ S; long 151° 50’–152° 30’ E), are described from 62 full floristic survey sites (20 x 20 m in area).

Early evolutionary history of the seed
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The seed is an essential stage in the life history of gymnospermous and angiospermous plants, facilitating both their survival and dispersal. We reappraise knowledge of the evolutionary history of the gymnospermous seed, from its origin in the late Devonian through to the well‐known end‐Permian extinctions – an interval encompassing the ...

Ecography, EarlyView.Conservation has shifted towards a climate change adaptation approach in which expected species range shifts are increasingly considered to mitigate effects of climate change and habitat fragmentation on biodiversity. As part of this, ecological connectivity needs to be ensured to support gene flow and viable populations in the face of changing ...

Response of Bird Populations to Long-term Changes in Local Vegetation and Regional Forest Cover [PDF]
, 2016 We analyzed data from a woodland site for a 59-year period to determine whether changes in bird populations are related to changes in the diversity and relative abundance of woody plant species even when vegetation structure, degree of forest ...

Ecography, EarlyView.Globally, mountains are highly diverse ecosystems that serve as natural laboratories for testing ecological theories, while providing vital ecosystem services. Their biodiversity arises from the interaction between elevational gradients and topographic complexity, which generate strong variation in environmental conditions across short spatial scales ...

Floristics, structure and site characteristics of "Melaleuca viridiflora" (Myrtaceae) dominated open woodlands of the wet tropics lowlands [PDF]
, 2008 Tropical lowland plant communities in north-eastern Queensland remain under pressure from continuing clearing, fragmentation, exotic species invasion, inappropriate fire regimes, and altered hydrological patterns. Comparatively little scientific research

Tracing the origins and evolution of nymphalid butterflies (Lepidoptera) in the Atlantic Forest
Ecography, EarlyView.Understanding the relative roles of diversification and dispersal is key to explaining large‐scale biogeographical patterns. Although both processes are known to shape biodiversity, their relative contributions remain understudied for many organisms. Here, we examine how these processes have jointly contributed to the exceptional diversity and endemism
