A New Species of Arthropteris From Samoa

New Zealand Journal of Botany, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.
A new species, Arthropteris samoensis (Arthropteridaceae), recorded from the Samoan islands of Upolu and Savai‘i, is described and illustrated. In Samoa, the new species is distinguished from Arthropteris palisotii s.l. by its smaller stature and more delicate texture (laminae mostly < 3 cm wide vs.

Island influences on plant functional traits and trait-trait associations across species- and community-scales. [PDF]

New Phytol
Summary The island rule predicts gigantism or dwarfism in body size of island species relative to their mainland counterparts. However, whether other functional traits shift and whether trait–trait associations on islands differ between species and community levels remains unclear. We measured 13 carbon‐ and water‐related functional traits in 37 shared

Analysis of Spontaneous Plant Species in an Urban Green Space in Southern Spain

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT This study presents a detailed floristic inventory of the spontaneous flora in La Asomadilla urban park in Córdoba, southern Spain. In addition to being the largest urban park in the city, La Asomadilla is characterized by irregular terrain, a transitional location between the Guadalquivir river plain and Sierra Morena mountains, and the ...

Where water meets rock: Ecological niches and diversity hotspots of hygropetric beetles in the Neotropics

Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 3, Page 502-516, June 2026.
First continental‐scale synthesis of hygropetric beetle diversity and distribution across Neotropical highlands. Climatic and topographic gradients structure regional assemblages and niche overlap. Ecological convergence suggests adaptation to similar conditions across disjunct regions.

Helmeted hornbill cranial kinesis: Balancing mobility and stability in a high‐impact joint

The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 5, Page 1299-1312, May 2026.
Abstract Prokinesis—in which a craniofacial joint allows the rostrum to move relative to the braincase—is thought to confer diverse advantages in birds, mostly for feeding. A craniofacial joint would, however, be a weak link if cranial stability is important. Paradoxically, we have identified a craniofacial joint in helmeted hornbills (Rhinoplax vigil),
