Adaptive Reproductive Strategies of Limpets in a Harvest‐Influenced Environment

iEcology reveals the importance of geography and genetic makeup in the flowering phenology of invasive Carpobrotus taxa

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 6, Issue 4, October–December 2025.
Scientists use social media to track the flowering of an invasive coastal plant across six countries. Photographs from Instagram, iNaturalist and Google Maps showed that Carpobrotus plants flower at different times based on location, not genetics. The invasive populations flower longer than native ones in South Africa, which may help explain their ...
