Ecography, Volume 2022, Issue 9, September 2022., 2022 Tropical ecosystems are often biodiversity hotspots, and invertebrates represent the main underrepresented component of diversity in large‐scale analyses. This problem is partly related to the scarcity of data widely available to conduct these studies and the lack of systematic organization of knowledge about invertebrates' distributions in ...

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 28, Issue 1, Page 4-24, January 2022., 2022 Abstract Aim Holm oak (Quercus ilex L.) is regarded as a keystone plant species. Trophic interactions may affect the distribution and abundance of phytophagous species, but the number of arthropod species that use holm oak as a food resource and their levels of host specificity are not yet known.

Topography, more than land cover, explains genetic diversity in a Neotropical savanna tree frog
Diversity and Distributions, Volume 26, Issue 12, Page 1798-1812, December 2020., 2020 Abstract Aim Effective conservation policies rely on information about population genetic structure and the connectivity of remnants of suitable habitats. The interaction between natural and anthropogenic discontinuities across landscapes can uncover the relative contributions of different barriers to gene flow, with direct consequences for decision ...

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.Abstract A new species of Pyrrhulina is described based on morphological and molecular evidence. Pyrrhulina punctata is distinguished from all congeners by the presence of a series of 7 to 16 irregular blotches of dark pigmentation on the flanks, equally marked in juveniles and adult specimens, the presence of 26–28 lateral‐line scales, 17–21 maxillary

Systematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, January‐March 2026.Phylogenomic analyses of 2539 nuclear loci reveal robust relationships among major Membracidae lineages. Helmet shape complexity shows strong phylogenetic conservatism across genera, tribes and subfamilies. Pronotal modularity evolves across lineages, highlighting the developmental diversity of treehopper morphologies. Abstract We utilized genomic data

Frog Diversity in Central Amazonian Macrophyte Beds: The Role of Local Environmental Gradients
Austral Ecology, Volume 50, Issue 12, December 2025.ABSTRACT Ecological assemblages can be shaped by neutral, niche‐based processes, or a combination of both. Understanding the influence of these processes and evaluating diversity measures based on taxonomic, functional, and phylogenetic metrics on the structure of ecological assemblages can show patterns and unravel community assembly mechanisms ...

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 149, Issue 10, Page 1502-1512, December 2025.ABSTRACT Although Diptera is one of the most diverse insect orders with a high potential for pollinating plants, it remains poorly studied and neglected. This is partly due to limited taxonomic efforts in species identification. For instance, despite being primary pollinators of trap flowers, species‐level identification in these systems remains scarce.

Biotropica, Volume 57, Issue 5, September 2025.By comparing native and neonative populations of an Amazonian lizard, we examine how urban environments and climate change impact its functional traits, while also predicting its future distribution. Our findings offer insights into how some species may adapt to human‐altered landscapes, showing that not all are negatively affected by these changes ...

Acta Zoológica Lilloana, 2018 Phyllocnistis citrella es un microlepidóptero que afecta áreas citrícolas del NOA. Sus larvas se alimentan de hojas tiernas formando galerías que disminuyen el crecimien- to de la planta y favorecen el desarrollo de enfermedades bacterianas, afectando ...

Functional Ecology, Volume 38, Issue 11, Page 2350-2368, November 2024.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Niche segregation is a mechanism by which competition between coexisting species is reduced. The ecological niche is a multidimensional space shaped by the conditions and resources that enable the existence of species.
