Green Algal Photobiont Diversity in Lichen Communities Under Forest Fragmentation
Environmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 12, December 2025.Forest fragmentation influences photobiont diversity in lichen symbioses through changes in the fungal partners. By sequencing over 2000 lichen thalli, we found 33 photobiont species, including new taxa and first records for Europe. These results highlight underestimated symbiotic diversity and the role of habitat structure in shaping symbiotic systems.

Do Island Spiders Descend From Trees? – A Tale of Island Colonisation and Niche Expansion
Journal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 12, December 2025.ABSTRACT Aim Oceanic islands are known for being home to drastically different communities compared to the mainland, as their isolation and limited area significantly favour clades able to travel long distances over water. On spiders, this happens mainly, although not exclusively, through ballooning whose propensity is unevenly distributed across ...
