A Spatially Explicit Distribution Model to Support Conservation Strategies for Isolated Small‐Ranged Species: A Case Study From Galápagos

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim This study aimed to test the effectiveness of a hierarchical, spatially explicit, Bayesian modelling framework combining Integrated Nested Laplace Approximation (INLA) with Stochastic Partial Differential Equation (SPDE) as an alternative to traditional Species Distribution Models (SDMs), particularly in cases where standard assumptions ...

Biogeographic Spread of the Non‐Indigenous Copepod Pseudodiaptomus marinus in Italian Waters—Insights by the Marine Strategy Framework Directive Surveys

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim This research investigates the distribution of the non‐indigenous calanoid copepod Pseudodiaptomus marinus Sato, 1913 in Italian coastal waters as retrieved by the data collected in the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD) programme in the 2015–2023 time window. Location Italian marine coastal waters, Mediterranean Sea.

Global Drivers of Morphological Variation in Grey Wolves

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim To investigate the ecological and evolutionary drivers of morphological variation in grey wolves (Canis lupus) across their global range: Location The entire Holarctic distribution of grey wolves, from Greenland to New Mexico in North America, from Norway to Israel in Eurasia, including several samples from Russia and India.

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.

Plants That Evolved Under High Phylogenetic Diversity Have Higher Invasion Success, Particularly in Undisturbed Communities

Ecology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 6, June 2026.
We show that species from phylogenetically diverse home ranges can colonise even undisturbed sites, highlighting evolutionary imbalance as a potentially influential driver of asymmetric invasion patterns worldwide. Our results have implications for the prediction and management of invasive species.

Macrogenetic Alignment in Ecological Strategies Better Interprets Assembly Processes Than Pre‐Determined Functional Groupings

Ecology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 6, June 2026.
A comparative macrogenetic framework reveals that standardised landscape‐genomics can identify shared patterns reflecting common histories and assembly processes. We detected convergence in distributional dynamics and delineate three broad patterns and five species groups defined by gene flow and isolation‐by‐distance, highlighting the limitations of ...
