For most traits, floral intra‐individual variation was similar between morphs and populations with different pollinator guilds (bees and hummingbirds), potentially facilitating effective pollen transfer in distylous systems. Still, greater variation in corolla length increased pollen deposition in L‐morph flowers in the bee‐pollinated population ...

Abstract Introduction Human land use intensification and the resulting habitat loss are primary drivers of insect pollinator declines. Habitat restoration offers a promising approach to counteract these declines, yet landscape‐level evaluations of bee responses to restoration and management remain limited.

Optimizing mowing strategies for controlling Lupinus polyphyllus Lindl. in roadside habitats
Abstract Introduction Road verges provide refuge habitats for semi‐natural grassland species but can also facilitate the spread of invasive alien plant species such as Lupinus polyphyllus Lindl., which negatively impacts biodiversity. Objectives We studied how different mowing regimes affect L.

How wildlife respond to tropical cyclones: short‐term tactics and long‐term impacts
ABSTRACT From butterflies to lizards and from sharks to seabirds, wildlife exhibit tactics to survive the impacts of tropical cyclones, also known as hurricanes, cyclones, or typhoons depending on where they occur. Some species seek refuge during the storm by moving, some remain in place and ride it out, and others move longer distances, avoiding the ...

Loss, persistence and reversal of phenotypic traits
ABSTRACT The irreversibility of complex trait loss has long been a tenet of evolutionary biology. However, this idea is increasingly at odds with the numerous documented exceptions across the Tree of Life. We synthesise this growing body of evidence across a diverse array of taxa and traits, exploring the evolutionary conditions that enable ...
