Le GBIF : ouvrir l’accès aux données primaires sur la biodiversité

open access: yesNetcom, 2013
Since 2001, the international community has established a consortium, the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF), to encourage free and open access to primary data on biodiversity (specimens in natural history collections, and field observations

Hoverfly (Diptera: Syrphidae) diversity in Tapada da Ajuda, Lisbon - a preliminary study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Hoverflies are holometabolic insects, whose adults are pollinators feeding on nectar and pollen. Frequently, they are confused with wasps, bees and bumblebees.

Macro-Climatic Distribution Limits Show Both Niche Expansion and Niche Specialization among C4 Panicoids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Grasses are ancestrally tropical understory species whose current dominance in warm open habitats is linked to the evolution of C4 photosynthesis. C4 grasses maintain high rates of photosynthesis in warm and water stressed environments, and the syndrome ...

The effect of trait choice on hybrid species distribution model projections under climate change

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Species distribution models (SDMs) have been increasingly combined with thermal performance data to enhance their transferability and to provide a physiological explanation for the predicted geographic patterns. Yet, while it is widely acknowledged that thermal sensitivities may vary among biological traits, it remains largely unexplored to what extent

Tracing the origins and evolution of nymphalid butterflies (Lepidoptera) in the Atlantic Forest

open access: yesEcography, 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

Range expansion of Ambrosia artemisiifolia in Europe is promoted by climate change [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Ambrosia artemisiifolia L., native to North America, is a problematic invasive species, because of its highly allergenic pollen. The species is expected to expand its range due to climate change.

Over three‐quarters of earthworm species lack protection in China, a crisis exacerbated by climate change

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Earthworms, as ‘ecosystem engineers', play a crucial role in regulating ecosystem functions and shaping community structures. Due to climate change, earthworms face severe survival pressures and extinction risks. However, whether conservation efforts targeting aboveground biodiversity can cover the long‐neglected earthworm diversity remains unknown. To

A dataset on the distribution of genus Panorpa (Mecoptera, Panorpidae) in the forest and forest-steppe zones of European Russia

open access: yesActa Biologica Sibirica
Among all insects, the order Mecoptera is the least studied in European Russia. Among this order, the small family Panorpidae stands out, the species of which are found mainly in forest ecosystems. In order to fill this gap, during 2008, 2009, 2011, 2015,
