Exploring the Antiproliferative Activity of Flavolignans From the Leaves of Casearia arborea (Salicaceae)

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 22, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT The Casearia genus (Salicaceae) is well known as a source of natural antitumor prototypes, as described for clerodane diterpenes. In this way, the dichloromethane phase from leaves of Casearia arborea was phytochemically evaluated in liquid chromatography coupled to high‐resolution mass spectrometry, furnishing flavonoid, flavolignan, and ...

Climate Change‐Induced Distribution Shifts of Keratin‐Feeding Beetle Omorgus (Omorgus) suberosus: Implications for Olive Ridley Sea Turtle Lepidochelys olivacea Conservation

Animal Conservation, Volume 28, Issue 6, Page 803-816, December 2025.
Our study projects significant climate change‐induced distribution shifts of a keratin‐feeding beetle Omorgus suberosus, with expansions into higher latitudes in Europe and North America and notable habitat losses in tropical regions by 2100. Ecological niche models predict a global habitat reduction of 9.5% under SSP2–4.5 and 20.8% under SSP5–8.5 ...
