Mid‐Domain Effect and Wooded Habitat Shape Mediterranean Reptile Communities
Biological Diversity, EarlyView.Analyzing a large number of reptiles observed across protected areas in Central Italy, we tested whether the mid‐domain effect explains hump‐shaped richness–elevation patterns. Species richness was best predicted by the combined influence of geometric constraints and woodland cover, revealing two contrasting species clusters and offering a robust ...

Adaptive Genomic Divergence Across Altitudes in Capsella bursa‐pastoris
Biological Diversity, EarlyView.Genomic divergence was observed between high‐altitude and low‐altitude populations of Capsella bursa‐pastoris in China, consistent with an important role of ecological factors. Candidate adaptive loci associated with enhanced energy metabolism, photoprotection, and growth plasticity under altitudinal stress were identified.

Restoring Trust: Rebuilding the Forest Carbon Credit System Through Scientific Rigor
Biological Diversity, EarlyView.ABSTRACT As pivotal nature‐based climate solutions (NbCS), forests are increasingly recognized for their climate mitigation potential. However, this potential is undermined by fundamental flaws in current carbon credit systems. Our analysis identifies four interconnected systemic challenges: (1) subjective additionality assessments arising from ...

Biological Diversity, EarlyView.Density estimates of two endangered rodent subspecies, endemic to Key Largo, Florida, USA. These findings illustrate the contrasting dynamics of two native species associated with the prevalence of invasive Burmese pythons and global change. The woodrats' decline emphasizes its potential risk of extinction as global change continues to impact island ...
