This study analyzed the growth and survival of 721 seedlings in Malaysian Borneo in relation to their local neighbourhood of surrounding matrix trees. We found that both were positively influenced by canopy openness and the basal area of surrounding trees, highlighting the importance of light availability and the benefits of areas with more unlogged ...

Data on the Distribution and Ecology of Pistia stratiotes L. (Araceae) in Hungary
Free‐floating macrophyte invasions pose an increasing threat to lowland freshwater systems in Central Europe, particularly in thermally influenced canal networks. This study provides the first detailed assessment of the distribution, habitat conditions, dispersal, and reproduction of Pistia stratiotes along the Élővíz Canal in southeastern Hungary ...

Hypotheses for the Adaptive Maintenance of Phenotypic Polymorphisms
Phenotypic polymorphisms offer easily observable diversity ideal for empirical and theoretical exploration, but developing and comparing hypotheses for the adaptive maintenance of polymorphism can be a challenge. Here, we propose a framework categorizing polymorphisms based on (i) one of five distinct types of maintenance selection and (ii) the context

The Harpy Eagle (Harpia harpyja), a top predator of Neotropical forests, faces severe threats across its range, including in the Atlantic Forest. Using 50 years of occurrence records, including nests and multiple age classes, we document the species' persistence in one of its last reproductive refuges while revealing ongoing human–wildlife conflicts ...

Stable isotope analysis indicates that fragmentation and habitat loss in semideciduous dry forests in the Brazilian Cerrado drive trophic niche shifts in Gracilinanus agilis, with potential consequences for its role as a seed disperser. ABSTRACT Habitat loss and fragmentation have notable effects on species' trophic ecology, often most pronounced in ...
