Development of species distribution models helps identify source country anomalies in timber supply chains

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract For many timber species, a lack of consistent, comprehensive global distribution data makes validating supply source (country of harvest) difficult. To supplement these data, we developed species distribution models (SDMs) for the American mahogany species (genus Swietenia) to demonstrate how SDMs can assist in the analysis of supply sources ...

Energetic and oxidative costs of microfilarial infection: evidence for fitness trade‐offs in male village weavers of the Amurum Forest Reserve

Wildlife Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, January 2026.
Microfilariae contribute to a higher energetic demand that could lead to oxidative damage and reduce hosts' fitness. Yet reports about the energy status and oxidative stress‐defense mechanisms of infected wild birds are rarely documented. We investigated the relationship between microfilariae and the energy status and oxidative damage‐defense ...
