The Influence of Plant Species Composition on an Endangered Grassland Specialist Reptile, the Hungarian Meadow Viper

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
The study investigated how the horizontal structure and functional composition of grassland vegetation influence the occupancy and density of the highly endangered Hungarian meadow viper. Using plant community data and viper surveys from 59 quadrats, the best models showed that vipers prefer wetter meadows with fewer and shorter plant species, and a ...

New Insight Into the Evolutionary Arms Race Between Spider Egg Sac Pseudoparasitoids and Active Maternal Care by the Spiders

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
We analysed various points of the counter‐adaptations of the spider egg sac pseudoparasitoid and spiders exhibiting active maternal care, utilising the ichneumonid Hidryta fusiventris and the wolf spider Pardosa lugubris. We observed that there is a time shift of approximately 1 month between the first egg sac of P.

Differences in Phenological Estimation From Multi‐Vegetation Indices Across the Yellow River Basin

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
This study evaluated the differential performance of PPI, kNDVI, and EVI in monitoring land surface phenology across the Yellow River Basin. The three vegetation indices showed pronounced divergence in capturing autumn phenological metrics, particularly the downturn date (DD) and recession date (RD).

Climate Change Alters Elevational Distribution Patterns of Cormus domestica Habitat

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
This study utilizes species distribution models to project the habitat shifts of Cormus domestica in Italy, predicting a substantial range reduction of 32%–68% by 2100 driven primarily by rising annual mean temperatures. The results indicate a significant shift of suitable habitats toward higher elevations, creating a scenario where the necessary ...
