Non‐Invasive eDNA Reveals the Ecological and Genetic Status of the Western Capercaillie (Tetrao urogallus aquitanicus) in the Eastern Pyrenees

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
This study provides new ecological insights into the population of the Western Capercaillie (Tetrao urogallus aquitanicus) at the easternmost edge of the Pyrenees using fecal samples as a source of environmental DNA. From DNA extracts, we estimated population size, sex ratio, genetic diversity, and diet composition.

Response of oriental beech (Fagus orientalis Lipsky) seedlings to canopy gap size [PDF]

Forestry: An International Journal of Forest Research, 2005
Summary The response of nursery seedlings and wildings of oriental beech ( Fagus orientalis Lipsky) to canopy gap size was studied in a climax beech forest in northern Iran with respect to seedling survival, shoot growth and vitality. These parameters were followed for 2 years after planting in gaps of 50, 200 and 600 m 2 , as well as in the open fi ...

The local paleoenvironment of Kalavan‐2 based on small‐vertebrate remains and its implications for human‐environment‐dynamics between 60 and 35 ka in the Armenian Highlands

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 1, Page 153-177, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Kalavan‐2, a high‐altitude (∼1640 m a.s.l.) open‐air site in Armenia, preserves stratified Middle Paleolithic occupations with a rich small‐vertebrate record. Luminescence dating has placed site formation between ~60 and 45 ka, but without independent chronological control of the microvertebrate accumulation.

Spatial Factors Shape Taxonomic and Functional Beta‐Diversity in Water‐Filled Tree Holes in Different Biogeographical Regions

Ecology Letters, Volume 28, Issue 12, December 2025.
Spatial processes predominantly shape taxonomic and functional β‐diversity of macroinvertebrate communities in water‐filled tree holes in different biogeographical regions, with species richness differences driving both taxonomic and functional patterns overall, while functional turnover was pronounced in the Palaeotropical region.

Estimating Reproductive Parameters of a Newly Discovered Weather Loach Population

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 5, Issue 5, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Aquatic invasive species have negative impacts on native biodiversity and pose a significant threat to overall ecosystem health. Successfully established non‐native species possess life history traits that are advantageous for colonization and expansion into novel environments.

International Biological Flora: Tsuga canadensis*

Journal of Ecology, Volume 113, Issue 10, Page 3037-3080, October 2025.
Eastern Hemlock is a long‐lived forest tree of eastern North America known for its deep shade and home given to many organisms. Despite surviving large‐scale clearing for agriculture when Europeans arrived, it returned to dominate when the land was abandoned in the mid 1800s.

Some Physical and Mechanical Properties of Borate-Treated Oriental Beech Wood

Drvna industrija, 2015
This study was designed to determine some physical properties such as surface roughness and oven dry density, and some mechanical properties such as modulus of elasticity (MOE) of borate-treated wood specimens. Wood specimens were prepared from Oriental beech (Fagus orientalis L.).
