Integrating fossil data in ecological niche models to improve predictions of future habitat of Caribbean corals

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 5, October 2026.
Abstract Ecological niche models (ENMs) are used to assess the abiotic preferences of species by linking their occurrences to the environmental conditions in which they live. We developed a fossil‐informed ENM framework that integrates mid‐Holocene and modern occurrences to test niche stability and reconstruct abiotic niche characteristics for four ...

The link between colorfulness and extinction risk across the world's passerine birds

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 5, October 2026.
Abstract Many of the functional traits that mediate extinction risk across the range of biodiversity relate indirectly to a species’ ability to persist in a changing world, yet certain traits such as coloration directly affect human interactions with wildlife.

Identifying hotspots of faunal data deficiency to direct urgent research and monitoring

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 5, October 2026.
Abstract Data deficiency is a substantial challenge for extinction risk assessments because incomplete data means we cannot accurately identify priority protected areas for conservation. Here, we use the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) distributions of amphibians, sharks and rays, fish, mammals, birds, and reptiles to identify ...

Insights from three decades of IUCN Red List assessments catalyzing shark, ray, and chimaera conservation

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 5, October 2026.
Abstract The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species is a critical measure of global aquatic and terrestrial biodiversity status. It is also the basis for the Red List Index, which tracks extinction risk over time.

Environmental Factors Have a Stronger Influence on the Coral Holobiont in Comparison to Geographic Distance Along a 15,000‐km East‐to‐West Transect Through the Coral Triangle, Pacific and Indian Oceans

Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim To determine the factors that structure coral‐associated microbial communities (bacteria and Symbiodiniaceae). These microbial communities play critical roles in reef ecosystem function, yet the relative importance of environmental versus geographic drivers in structuring these communities across large spatial scales remains poorly ...
