Mapping Priority Havens: Interactive Effects of Climate Change and Predator Dynamics on Sea Turtle Nesting Patterns

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aims Understanding broad‐scale ecological responses to global change is essential for investigating and conserving biodiversity. Sea turtles, with their ancient evolutionary history and global distribution, serve as an ideal model for understanding these ecological responses.

Predictions From Evolutionary Theory for Urban Environments

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Urbanization drives rapid and extreme environmental change, profoundly shaping the ecology and evolution of populations. In this Perspective, we call for the integration and development of evolutionary theory and empirical research through collaboration between theoretical and experimental biologists to provide new insights into urban ...

Climate‐Induced Genomic Selection: Genetic Structure Variation of Cornus kousa subsp. chinensis and Its Adaptive Reaction to Future Climate Change

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Global climate change exerts a far‐reaching influence on the geographical distribution, phenological patterns, and genetic diversity of plants, presenting a grave challenge to the survival and evolution of species. Owing to its robust ecological adaptability, restricted dispersal capacity, and abundant intraspecific variation, Cornus kousa ...

Tuberculosis Susceptibility and Inbreeding Depression Hinder Ex Situ Conservation in a Critically Endangered Rainforest Bird [PDF]

Evol Appl
ABSTRACT Captive breeding can be a key component of species conservation strategies, but also exposes these rare species to novel environments including the pathogen landscape. The critically endangered white‐winged wood duck (WWWD) Asarcornis scutulata has experienced substantial population declines, local extirpations and fragmentation of its former ...

Unlocking the Past to Protect the Future: Forensic DNA and Historical Specimens Reveal the Origins of Smuggled Yellow‐Headed Parrots

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Wildlife trafficking poses a major threat to biodiversity, particularly for species like parrots that are targeted in the pet trade. The Yellow‐headed Parrot (Amazona oratrix), an endangered species native to Mexico and Central America, is frequently poached from unknown geographic locations, hindering the identification of smuggling sources ...
