Oikos, EarlyView.Understanding how physiological constraints scale up to realized niche differences remains a central challenge in functional ecology. Temperature strongly influences metabolic performance, activity, and habitat selection in ectotherms, yet few field studies quantify how thermal responses interact with diel and habitat structure to shape predator ...

Oikos, EarlyView.To understand the structuring of species assemblages, integrating life‐history traits and evolutionary heritage in analyses is vital. This allows the assessment of a mechanistic link between species and their environment. Deadwood systems are vital for nutrient cycling and biodiversity support, governed by complex intra‐ and inter‐specific fungal and ...

Ecosystem engineers and functional dominance: when species loss matters for ecosystem function
Oikos, EarlyView.Understanding when and why species loss affects community function in natural communities remains an open question in ecology. Recent cross‐system analyses have shown that functional dominance is associated with whether species loss matters: in communities dominated by few high‐performing species, lost species contribute little to function.

Oikos, EarlyView.Sensory ecology seeks to understand how organisms detect and use information from their environment, yet comparative analyses across multiple sensory modalities remain rare. Here, we present a roadmap for contrasting the sensory ecologies of birds and rodents using surrogate morphological and acoustic traits associated with vision, audition, and ...

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Tiny, leafless fairy lanterns are easily overlooked on the forest floor. Thismia abei, endemic to Japan, persists in small, unstable populations and is listed nationally as Critically Endangered. Our recent work has revealed another, less obvious form of obscurity.

Multiple barriers maintain species boundaries in sympatric brood‐site deceptive Gastrodia orchids
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Societal Impact Statement Gastrodia orchids are inconspicuous forest plants that lack chlorophyll and obtain carbon from fungi. Their dull‐colored, ground‐level flowers are often hidden among leaf litter, yet they rely on small flies for pollination.
