Phylogenetic Analyses of True Ladybirds (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae: Coccinellini) Reveal Directionality in Diet Evolution and Support a Boreotropical Origin of the Tribe

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
A newly generated large‐scale molecular phylogeny of true ladybirds (Coccinellini) clarifies their evolutionary relationships and supports a boreotropical origin in the Paleocene, with multiple independent southward dispersals. Ancestral diet reconstructions suggest an initial specialization on aphids, followed by expansions in host range and ...

Biodiversity indicators in organic and conventional farming systems: main results from the European project BIOBIO [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In the framework of the European project BIOBIO, we compared between countries habitat and cumulated species richnesses of plants, wild bees, spiders and earthworms, measured in 169 conventional and organic farms belonging to 10 case studies in 10 ...

New Mitogenomic Resources for the Caiman yacare (Daudin, 1802) From Bolivia

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
New mitochondrial genomes were generated to enhance the mitochondrial genetic resources available for Caiman yacare. Mitochondrial genomes of approximately 16 kb were obtained through genome skimming using Illumina sequencing technology. The assemblies revealed a composition typical of vertebrate mitogenomes, including 13 protein‐coding genes, 2 rRNA ...

Genetic Diversity Impacts Climate‐Induced Species Range Shifts

open access: yesEcology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 4, April 2026.
Genetic diversity may buffer species against climate‐driven range contractions and facilitate expansions, but its role at a global scale remains unclear. Using 4673 range shift estimates for 1888 species, we show that higher genetic diversity reduces trailing edge contractions under rapid warming and accelerates leading edge expansions under moderate ...

A Conceptual Framework for Assessing Comparability Between Corporate Biodiversity Impact Accounting Tools

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, Volume 35, Issue 3, Page 4510-4520, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Integrating corporate biodiversity impacts into investment decisions can direct investments toward nature‐positive firms, creating a market signal. The strength of this signal is a function of how closely investments align. This alignment depends on the comparability (the degree of similarity and difference) of tools used to account for ...

Étude en cours sur la prise en compte de la biodiversité dans les concessions forestières d'Afrique centrale [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
L'Afrique centrale porte le deuxième massif de forêt tropicale humide du monde. Selon les pays de la sous-région, de 10% à 15% (Nasi, Cassagne, Billand, 2006) de la superficie des forêts sont couverts par des aires protégées.

Linking by‐caught cetacean traits to fishing techniques: Insights from two species of small cetaceans

open access: yesEcological Applications, Volume 36, Issue 2, March 2026.
Abstract By‐catch is one of the main threats currently looming over small cetaceans worldwide. Improving knowledge of the interactions between fishing activities and small cetaceans is paramount to design cost‐effective mitigation measures. In particular, not all individuals within a population may be exposed to the same by‐catch risk: in dolphins ...

Agroécologie et sécurité alimentaire : pour un mariage forcé [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Les luttes autour de la nécessité de transformer les paradigmes technologiques de l'agriculture pour faire face aux urgences écologiques et sociales mondiales (extinction de la biodiversité, changement climatique, accroissement des inégalités), semblent ...

A Multi‐Taxa Approach to Estuarine Biomonitoring: Assessing Vertebrate Biodiversity and Ecological Continuity Using Environmental DNA Metabarcoding in the Rance River (Brittany, France)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
We applied eDNA metabarcoding to assess vertebrate diversity in the Rance Estuary, France, across five stations spanning marine to freshwater environments, including areas upstream and downstream of a tidal power plant dam. A total of 124 vertebrate MOTUs were detected, with community composition reflecting the estuarine gradient and species turnover ...

Le développement des dispositifs de certification environnementale dans les Outre-mer : quelles perspectives pour la préservation de la biodiversité ? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Le patrimoine biologique naturel des collectivités françaises d'Outre-mer est unique, tant par sa richesse que par sa diversité. Cette richesse est fortement menacée par la destruction des habitats naturels, la surexploitation, la pollution, la ...
