Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.This study investigates the species composition, distribution, and diversity of Betula platyphylla forests in the Nyang River Basin in southeastern Tibet. The results show that elevation is the primary factor influencing species diversity in plant communities, with diversity indices significantly decreasing with increasing elevation.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.This study assembled and characterized the complete chloroplast genome of Caltha scaposa, revealing it has the shortest inverted repeat regions among examined Anemoneae taxa and identifying highly variable markers for future phylogenetic work. Phylogenomic analysis of 40 plastomes robustly resolves C.

Elevation Filters Lizard Species Occurrences and Assemblages in Chitwan Annapurna Landscape, Nepal
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.We investigated lizard species richness,assemblage patterns, and environmental drivers along the elevational gradient in the Chitwan Annapurna Landscape during 2018–2019. We recorded 23 lizard species and found that species richness varied significantly and non‐linearly with elevation, peaking at mid elevation. Species turnover dominated beta diversity,

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.We studied the spatial and temporal relationships between clouded tiger‐cats and dogs in an isolated protected area of Colombia. Dogs influenced the activity patterns of clouded tiger‐cats but not their habitat use. Conservation actions should be directed to mitigate potential contact between both species.

Ecological and Social Dimensions of Human–Bear Coexistence in Nepal's Gaurishankar Conservation Area
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.We modelled habitat suitability for Asiatic black bears in Nepal's Gaurishankar Conservation Area and combined it with community surveys to understand human–bear coexistence. Our results show that bear habitat is concentrated between 1000 and 3000 m and that conflict is rising in forest‐edge communities.
