New species and new records in Agarista (Ericaceae) from the Peruvian Andes

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Agarista (Ericaceae) is currently represented in Peru by three species. Here, we update this number to five, adding new taxa based on the recognition of a taxonomic novelty and new records. The new species Agarista eugeniifolia differs from all congeneric species by an abaxially sulcate midvein.

Boswellia oropedionis (Burseraceae) sp. nov., a frankincense tree from Socotra, and notes on B. ameero and B. bullata

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
The new species Boswellia oropedionis Thulin and M.H.Weber is described, illustrated by photographs and mapped. This tree is only known from a small population growing on level limestone on the Qatariyah plateau in southern Socotra and is the twelfth endemic species of Boswellia from the Socotra archipelago. It differs from B.

Spatially‐explicit foraging by an apex predator linked to nearshore prey and their accessibility in lakes

Oikos, EarlyView.
Habitat coupling – where mobile predators forage over broad spatial scales and, in doing so, link food webs from semi‐discrete habitat patches – has emerged as a major structuring force in lake ecosystems. For the cold‐water apex predator lake trout Salvelinus namaycush, food‐web structure and morphometry‐driven accessibility to nearshore areas in ...

Effects of boreal ground layer shrubs and bryophytes on the diversity, biomass and composition of lichen communities across contrasting ecosystems

Oikos, EarlyView.
There has been much recent interest in understanding how abiotic factors such as light, nutrients, and soil moisture affect the composition and biomass of lichen communities. Meanwhile, whether and how ground layer vegetation such as bryophytes and shrubs also influence lichen communities have received much less attention, particularly regarding how ...

Large, rugged and remote: The challenge of wolf–livestock coexistence on federal lands in the American West

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The expansion of grey wolves (Canis lupus) across the western United States, including on public lands used for extensive livestock grazing, requires tools and techniques for reducing wolf–livestock conflict and supporting coexistence. We examined approaches used on forested lands managed by the U.S.
