The Effects of Lantana camara L. on Soil Physicochemical Properties in the Eastern Cape Province of South Africa

African Journal of Ecology, Volume 64, Issue 5, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Lantana camara L. is an invasive alien plant species that is recognised globally due to its extensive distribution and negative impacts on species diversity and ecosystem dynamics. Despite its extensive distribution in South Africa, its physicochemical impacts on soils are understudied. This study investigated the impacts of L.

Ecological Plasticity Explains the Distribution of Sympatric and Allopatric Mouse Lemurs (Microcebus spp.) in Northeastern Madagascar

Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Species distributions are shaped by complex biotic and abiotic interactions, which are often not fully understood. We investigated the ecological basis of co‐occurrence and distribution of four partially sympatric and allopatric cryptic mouse lemur species (Microcebus spp.) in the Ambatosoa and Analanjirofo region of northeastern Madagascar ...

A Preliminary Assessment of Hedge Plant Species and Their Distribution in Rural Eastern Africa and Their Potential Role in Driving Invasions

African Journal of Ecology, Volume 64, Issue 4, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Alien plant species are widely utilised for ornament, agro‐forestry, or even for restoration and are more likely to be introduced multiple times and disseminated widely across a landscape. Here we report on the native and alien species used for hedging purposes in rural and peri‐urban eastern Africa and undertake a preliminary assessment to ...
