Taxonomic and functional diversity of urban bees of the world

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Bees play a pivotal role in terrestrial environments. Urbanization can affect these organisms and the ecosystem services they provide. However, knowledge of the global diversity of urban bees is limited. Thus, we summarized data on urban bee species identities and occurrences; compared distributions of all bees with those found in urban ...

Behavioural Indicators of Intra- and Inter-Specific Competition: Sheep Co-Grazing with Guanaco in the Patagonian Steppe

Animals, 2021
In extensive livestock production, high densities may inhibit regulation processes, maintaining high levels of intraspecific competition over time. During competition, individuals typically modify their behaviours, particularly feeding and bite rates ...

Evaluating a structured expert elicitation approach for adaptive conservation management based on lessons from five years in practice

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Adaptive management of threatened species relies on having ex ante estimates of species’ responses to different interventions. Structured expert elicitation is often used to generate these estimates, but comparisons of these expert‐predicted outcomes with observed results are rare.

Ecosystem service gradients at protected area borders reveal multiple patterns and prevalent management conflicts

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Protected areas cannot halt biodiversity loss in isolation; integrating them with surrounding human‐dominated landscapes is critical. However, this integration is challenged by substantial landscape heterogeneity at protected area borders, making it difficult to determine cross‐border changes in ecosystem service provision.

Forest edges buffer effects of agricultural management on bee–plant interaction networks

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Agricultural management effects: Organic and conventional crop margins host similar bee and plant species, but network structure differs: organic farms exhibit higher interaction diversity, conventional farms higher connectance. Role of forest edges: Native forest edges stabilize bee–plant networks by providing continuous floral resources and suitable ...

Wood Thrush (Hylocichla mustelina) occupancy patterns reveal sensitivity to low precipitation on nonbreeding grounds in northern Costa Rica

Ibis, EarlyView.
Climatic change and anthropogenic disturbances are reshaping animal populations. Habitat loss and extreme climatic events are particularly strong drivers of declines in species that depend on forested areas. For migratory songbirds, climate and the persistence of suitable habitat over time are fundamental to sustaining populations annually.
