Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 6, June 2026.ABSTRACT Understanding how many species exist on Earth is a fundamental yet challenging question in biology, with significant implications for biodiversity conservation. The Linnean shortfall, or the gap in taxonomic knowledge, remains a major obstacle, particularly in highly diverse groups like insects. This study focuses on the family Leptophlebiidae

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.Based on an analysis of eBird records, this study finds that the vocal patterns of tropical forest tinamous are primarily influenced by changes in daylength, with a secondary effect of precipitation. Birds sang more when days were longer or shorter than 12 h and during drier periods, especially in wetter regions.

Environmental Policy and Governance, Volume 36, Issue 3, Page 476-490, June 2026.ABSTRACT Deforestation and its social impacts are an enduring challenge in agrarian frontiers, especially in the tropics. Fueled by global demand for commodities, this process is mediated by ideas, concepts, meanings, and policies that uphold socioenvironmental degradation. A key and understudied—arena in which this mediation occurs is the sub‐national

International Review of Hydrobiology, Volume 111, Issue 1, June 2026.ABSTRACT Lentic ecosystems are vulnerable to contamination by trace elements, which can accumulate and pose risks to aquatic life and human health. In a large, developing country such as Brazil, marked by vast geographic, environmental, and socioeconomic diversity, it is crucial to understand how these factors shape research on this group of ...

Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 6, June 2026.ABSTRACT Understanding animal distribution is crucial for elucidating natural history, population dynamics, and inter‐ and intraspecific interactions. This knowledge informs the planning and evaluation of management and conservation strategies, particularly for sympatric, scarce, and threatened species such as jaguars (Panthera onca) and pumas (Puma ...

Freshwater Navigation Is Linked to Non‐Native Species Distributions Across Spatial Scales
Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 6, June 2026.ABSTRACT Aim Invasive species are among the most important drivers of native species declines, and cause serious economic and ecological costs. Globally, Europe is a hotspot for freshwater non‐native species, especially among macroinvertebrates and fish, and inland navigation is thought to be a major driver of their spread. However, the degree to which

Sedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 4, Page 945-964, June 2026.ABSTRACT One of the largest wetlands on Earth, the Brazilian Pantanal contains roughly 10 000 natural lakes, about 1000 of which are hypersaline. In these environmentally stressful settings, animal life struggles to survive, while cyanobacteria form extensive mats.

Spatiotemporal Fire Patterns and Post‐fire Forest Change in Peru (2000–2021)
Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 9, Page 4368-4382, 30 May 2026.ABSTRACT Fire is increasingly more frequent and severe in many tropical regions, leading to significant forest loss, diminished biodiversity, and reduced Nature's contributions to people (NCPs). In this study, we analyzed the spatiotemporal patterns of fire in Peru and its regions, focusing on: (1) burned area, (2) size, and (3) number of fires, using ...
