Ten rules for robust taxonomy in ecological datasets

New Phytologist, Volume 252, Issue 5, Page 1741-1749, December 2026.
A workflow for better use and integration of taxonomic‐related information into ecological datasets. Summary Accurate taxonomy, including species identification and naming, underpins ecological inference, yet taxonomic information in ecological datasets is often inconsistently recorded or weakly standardized.

Network Indices and Diversity Follow Distinct Patterns for Bee–Plant Networks Along a Neotropical Elevational Gradient

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 11, November 2026.
Ecological studies of how interactions, communities, and species change along elevational gradients are still missing from some key organisms and ecosystems. We quantify bee–plant interactions and bee diversity patterns along a low elevation Neotropical mountain.

Unveiling the Ongoing Expansion of Bullheads of the Genus Ameiurus (Actinopteri: Siluriformes) in the Dnipro River Basin, Ukraine: New Distributional Records and Genetic Diversity

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 11, November 2026.
This study investigates the rapid expansion, genetic structure, and phenotypic traits of two non‐native ictalurids, Ameiurus nebulosus and Ameiurus melas, within the under‐researched Dnipro River basin, Ukraine. Integrating mtDNA COI barcoding with morphological DAPC analysis, we provide the first molecularly verified record of A.

Preservice teachers as citizen scientists using iNaturalist

Discover Education
iNaturalist is a growing citizen science (CS) tool with great potential for biology education. Given the urgency of the biodiversity crisis, it is critical to raise awareness among preservice teachers (PT) as they impact future generations.

A Systematic Review of Cannibalism in Austro‐Papuan Dragons (Lacertilia: Amphibolurinae), With a New Record of Cannibalism in the Peninsula Dragon (Ctenophorus fionni)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 11, November 2026.
A male “central form” peninsula dragon (Ctenophorus fionni) consumes a juvenile conspecific at Mount Wudinna, South Australia. This is the third such record in peninsula dragons. Photo by Peri E. Bolton. ABSTRACT In 2012, one of us observed an adult male peninsula dragon (Ctenophorus fionni) predate a juvenile conspecific.

Chloroplast Genome Characterization and Phylogenetic Implications of Reyesia and Salpiglossis (Salpiglossideae, Solanaceae)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 11, November 2026.
We generated and compared the complete chloroplast genomes of Reyesia chilensis and Salpiglossis sinuata, two representative species of the tribe Salpiglossideae (subfamily Cestroideae) within Solanaceae. Comparative plastome analyses revealed highly conserved genome organization, codon usage, and repeat composition, while phylogenetic analyses ...

Predator Becomes Prey: Records of Intraguild Predation Between Velvet Worms (Onychophora) and Arthropods (Arthropoda) With an Expanded Review of Predation on Velvet Worms

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 11, November 2026.
This study reports the first confirmed cases of velvet worm (Onychophora) predation by omnivorous arthropods, specifically two harvestmen species (Opiliones: Cranaidae and Triaenonychidae) and a cave wētā (Orthoptera: Rhaphidophoridae), discovered through citizen‐science data.

Spatial variation and predictors of plant species' intrinsic climate sensitivity across the conterminous United States

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 11, November 2026.
Understanding how species' sensitivity to climate varies spatially across their ranges and elucidating the important causes is essential for identifying ecologically meaningful geographic units and conservation actions for biodiversity. In this study, we estimated climatic occurrence niches of vascular plants to explore the spatial variation in species'
