Hummingbird interaction niche packing is influenced by species richness and resource availability in the southern tropical Andes

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 7, Page 2275-2285, July 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Niche partitioning is often considered an important mechanism promoting species co‐occurrence in species‐rich communities. As species richness increases, niche partitioning may lead to different niche structures, including increased packing of species niches when the ...

Phylogenetic analysis and the recognition of a new genus for Mexican Crassulaceae segregated from Echeveria

TAXON, Volume 75, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Systematic knowledge of the Mexican Crassulaceae is slowly progressing as data from new DNA regions and species sampling efforts increase. We compiled and generated new rbcL, matK, rps16, ITS/ITS2, and ETS DNA sequences and performed an updated phylogenetic reconstruction for a group of 131 Mexican Crassulaceae terminals from 11 of the 13 ...

Functional divergence drives the prevalence of low‐abundance species in bat assemblages

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 1587-1602, June 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Ecological communities are structured by a few common species, while most occur at low abundance. Understanding the drivers of this widespread pattern raises fundamental questions about community assembly rules and is important for applied ecology for identifying ...

Prioritizing bat roosts for conservation with a global multicriteria bat roost priority index based on community science

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Prioritization in conservation is crucial for the development of efficient and effective decision‐making policies. For many decades, the importance of some species and their habitats has been assessed and applied in conservation legislation, but bats and their diurnal roosts have ofbeen overlooked.

Música alta y murciélagos insectívoros aéreos: cambios en sus señales de ecolocalización

Mammalogy Notes
La ecología de los murciélagos insectívoros aéreos depende de la ecolocalización. En el neotrópico se realizan conciertos al aire libre en áreas rurales o naturales que generan contaminación acústica y pueden impactar negativamente a los murciélagos ...

Local climate and genetic influence on intraspecific variation in torpor physiology of a cave‐roosting bat

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 4, Page 857-867, April 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Many small endotherms employ torpor as a survival strategy to reduce energy expenditure during periods with low food availability and cold temperatures. The expression and physiology of torpor can vary substantially within species because of phenotypic plasticity and ...

Dieta de murciélagos frugívoros y su efecto sobre la germinación de dos especies en el Área Natural Única Los Estoraques, Norte de Santander, Colombia

Caldasia, 2021
El estudio de la dieta de los murciélagos es importante para entender cómo se conforma su ensamble y cómo aportan a la dinámica de los bosques. Al ser pocos los estudios de dieta de murciélagos frugívoros en el bosque seco tropical, nuestro
