Floral resource diversity drives spatiotemporal variation in plant–pollinator network structure
Mechanisms underlying community assembly, including those related to species interactions, vary across space and time. Plant–pollinator networks exemplify these dynamics, where link rewiring and turnover mediate adaptations to environmental changes. Bees rely on diverse floral resources (e.g.

Droughts, increasingly frequent under human‐driven climate change, are expected to intensify globally. Both pulsed and prolonged droughts can strongly affect organismal survival and population dynamics, potentially altering terrestrial communities and ecosystems.

ABSTRACT Intensive agriculture and urbanization have led to habitat degradation and fragmentation, reducing plant diversity and subsequently reducing pollinator abundance and richness. This paper investigates the conservation potential of green infrastructure in allotment gardens, which are a common form of urban land use.

Colonization and spatiotemporal distribution of bruchid pests in lentil and faba bean fields
This study of 104 fields identifies Bruchus signaticornis in lentils and B. rufimanus in faba beans as the sole grain‐damaging species. Their uniform distribution within fields and the strong effect of regulatory factors on larvae and egg survival emphasize the need for species‐specific, phenology‐based and spatially informed integrated pest management

Abstract Floral mimicry of decaying substrates of animal origin, such as carrion or faeces, is associated with unusual traits such as geoflory, deep maroon or yellow colouration, floral hairs and unpleasant odour, but the functional significance of these traits for attracting and manipulating pollinators has seldom been examined.
