Tropical Land-Use Change Disrupts Zeta-Diversity Across Taxa. [PDF]
We studied birds, dung beetles, and orchids across natural and human‐transformed habitats in the Colombian Andes to understand how land‐use change affects biodiversity. We found that deforestation simplifies ecological communities and reduces both rare and widespread species, especially orchids.

Genetic inference of orchid colonization of a Costa Rican lava flow
A 1992 lava flow provides an excellent opportunity to study patterns of colonization and growth of plant populations on a naturally disturbed site. Plants with wind‐dispersed seeds, such as orchids, are often among the earliest colonists after habitat disturbance.

High compositional turnover, even across habitats with the highest degree of human intervention, suggests that both forest‐dwelling and open‐habitat species do not easily disperse across habitats. Species dispersal is the major force of orchid community turnover and might be strongly dependent upon macroevolutionary processes and species life‐history ...

Behavioral responses of animals to human activity can vary by the type and intensity of disturbance. Giant otters foraged more successfully in protected areas, avoided research vessels in mined and fished lakes and showed tolerance to human presence when previously exposed to ecotourism.

Automated conservation assessment of the orchid family with deep learning
Abstract International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List assessments are essential for prioritizing conservation needs but are resource intensive and therefore available only for a fraction of global species richness. Automated conservation assessments based on digitally available geographic occurrence records can be a rapid alternative,
