Taxonomic and functional patterns of arthropod succession after glacier retreat in the Dolomite Alps

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Arthropod succession after glacier retreat varied among species and forelands in the Dolomites Alps, with community composition shaped by glacier identity, time since deglaciation and local environmental conditions. Functional composition shifted from small, highly dispersive pioneer species to larger, less dispersive taxa, reflecting increasing ...

Species diversity and host plant associations of ambrosia beetles in Southeast Asian forests of Laos and Vietnam revealed by DNA barcoding

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Integrative DNA barcoding of ambrosia beetles and host plants revealed 27 beetle species across 16 genera and extensive, previously undocumented host plant diversity in Laos and Vietnam. Host specificity varied widely among ambrosia beetles, with Xylosandrus crassiusculus emerging as a dominant generalist associated with 19 host species from 12 plant ...

Relationship between the environment and the occurrence of invasive pumpkinseed Lepomis gibbosus in lotic and lentic habitats

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The pumpkinseed Lepomis gibbosus is a freshwater fish species native to North America. It has been introduced to Europe, where it is recognized as one of the worst aquatic invaders due to its high adaptability and invasive potential. This study aimed to determine the presence of L. gibbosus in small to medium‐sized water bodies, both lotic and

Subsistence hunting shapes the spatial variation of jaguar densities in community‐managed forests

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, EarlyView.
Jaguars and people can coexist in community‐managed forests, but distance matters. In Guatemala's Maya Biosphere Reserve, jaguar numbers increased markedly in areas harder to reach on foot, yet jaguars were still found near communities, showing that responsibly managed forests can support jaguar populations while allowing people to maintain traditional

Ecological and genomic variation in ectomycorrhizal fungal exploration types

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Ectomycorrhizal fungi (EMF) produce mycelia with variable extension and complexity, which can be classified according to soil ‘exploration types’ (ETs). ETs have received attention as one of the few mycorrhizal trait frameworks, but without an empirical classification of ET functional diversity and environmental preferences, understanding and ...
