Seed traits predict elevational range size in Impatiens species across a biodiversity hotspot in southwest China

Global Ecology and Conservation
Seed traits play a critical role in shaping plant elevational range size through their influence on dispersal and establishment, yet their contribution remains poorly quantified. This study investigated the extent to which seed traits predict elevational

A field survey on the genus Xenophrys (Amphibia, Megophryidae) confirms underestimated diversity in the Gaoligong Mountains, with the description of a new species [PDF]

Zoosystematics and Evolution
The Gaoligong Mountains, located in the western part of China’s Yunnan Province adjoining northern Myanmar, harbor a striking diversity of species and endemism. Previous studies have shown that amphibian diversity in this region remains underestimated. A

Climate, human disturbance and geometric constraints drive the elevational richness pattern of birds in a biodiversity hotspot in southwest China

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2019
To improve our understanding of mechanisms underlying biodiversity patterns, and provide insights for conservation biologists, elevational pattern of bird species richness and its causes were studied in the Gaoligong Mountains, China.

Asymmetric Effects of Temperature Change on Herbaceous Seed Germination: Implications for Climate Warming

Diversity
Seed germination is a critical ecological process that governs both the establishment and maintenance of plant diversity and is highly sensitive to temperature fluctuations. As climate change accelerates, particularly through increasing temperatures, the
