We assessed alpha‐ and beta‐diversity patterns of spiders across different forests and across vegetation layers (ground, shrub, low canopy) at local spatial scales across various Mediterranean forest types. Across forests, alpha‐diversity increased with habitat heterogeneity, which also drove beta‐diversity patterns across plots .

Subterranean environments contribute to three‐quarters of classified ecosystem services
ABSTRACT Beneath the Earth's surface lies a network of interconnected caves, voids, and systems of fissures forming in rocks of sedimentary, igneous, or metamorphic origin. Although largely inaccessible to humans, this hidden realm supports and regulates services critical to ecological health and human well‐being.

Pharmacological and Cosmeceutical Potential of Seaweed Beach-Casts of Macaronesia [PDF]
Seaweed beach-casts are a seasonal phenomenon that regularly deposits tons of algae biomass on beaches, which are usually disposed of in landfills. The present work aimed to contribute to the valorization of this biomass by studying bioactivities that reveal its potential in the pharmaceutical and/or cosmeceutical industries.

The liverwort genus Metzgeria (Jungermanniopsida) in Europe – An integrative taxonomic update
Abstract Species delimitation in liverworts, such as Metzgeria, is hampered by their limited morphology and hence morphologically determined specimens often turn out to belong to other taxa using molecular data. Metzgeria is a simple thalloid liverwort genus with over 100 species and a worldwide distribution. Seven species are listed to occur in Europe.
