Accounting for Friendlessness: Stigma and the Quest for an Honorable Self
How do people who identify as friendless make sense of their condition in a moment when friendship is extolled for the support and satisfaction it offers? This article draws on interviews with 21 adults in an Atlantic Canadian city. We argue that our interviewees were rarely at ease with their friendlessness and were at pains to recover an honorable ...

Abstract The legume genus Inga is a significant component of Neotropical wet forests. Despite extensive study, the identities and distributions of some species remain contentious. This study focuses on the Inga chocoensis complex, addressing the challenges in species delimitation due to morphological similarity of closely related species.

Typification and current status of the Turkish taxa described by Hanna Czeczott
Abstract Hanna Czeczott's 1925 expeditions to northern Turkey resulted in the description of 22 new taxa. Our study revisits them using Czeczott's original publications and herbarium collections. Of the 22 taxa described, we located all or parts of the original material for 21, designate 13 lectotypes (including one second‐step) and confirm 7 holotypes,

Treatment of pressure gun fractures and release in the wild of a caracara (Caracara plancus)
Abstract This report aims to describe the treatment progression of a free‐living southern crested caracara (Caracara plancus plancus) with gunshot‐related fractures. Radiographic examination revealed a comminuted fracture in the mid‐diaphysis of the humerus with displaced fragments, a comminuted fracture of the proximal third of the radius shaft, and ...

The evolution of sensitive periods beyond early ontogeny: Bridging theory and data
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Sensitive periods, in which experiences have a large impact on phenotypic development, are most common early in ontogeny. Yet, they may also occur at later ontogenetic stages, such as adolescence.

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Pollination is a key tenet of ecosystem sustainability and food security, but it is threatened by climate change. While many studies investigated the response of plant‐pollination traits to temperature, few attempted multifactorial and integrative approaches with ...

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The dependence on biotic pollination may constrain plant phenological responses because flowering time ultimately defines reproductive success. We proposed a local‐scale study combining long‐term phenology and experimental data to evaluate how a key functional trait—the

Visual information in the dark: Bioluminescence and perceptual design through evolution
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Bioluminescence offers a powerful framework for understanding how organisms evolve to shape visual information in diverse ways. Complementing studies of colour, transparency and pattern in illuminated environments, bioluminescent systems instead rely on generated light,
