Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 3, March 2026.Due to the constraints of limited effort and sampling error, observed species interaction networks are an imperfect representation of the ‘true' underlying community. Link prediction methods allow us to construct a potentially more complete representation of a given empirical network by guiding targeted sampling of predicted links, as well as offer ...

Revista Brasileira de Parasitologia Veterinária, 2018 The larvae of the family Trombiculidae are ectoparasites of vertebrates, including birds. The bite of some species can cause deep lesions and severe skin reactions in the host, these can lead to dermatitis, popularly known as trombiculiasis.

Integrative Zoology, Volume 21, Issue 2, Page 218-230, March 2026.China is a global hotspot for cuckoo‐host diversity, with 17 cuckoo species, exploiting 142 host species. We reveal adaptive matching in body size and egg traits, along with niche partitioning among cuckoos, while identifying eight new host species.

CISO: Species distribution modelling Conditioned on Incomplete Species Observations
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 3, Page 947-962, March 2026.Abstract Species distribution models (SDMs) are widely used to predict species' geographic distributions, serving as critical tools for ecological research and conservation planning. Typically, SDMs relate species occurrences to environmental variables representing abiotic factors, such as temperature, precipitation, and soil properties.

Case Report of Plastic String Entanglement Mortality in a Breeding Oriental Reed Warbler
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.Plastic production and use have increased markedly, concomitantly with rapid urbanization and development. Whereas birds and other animals use them as nesting materials, they pose toxicity and entanglement risks, potentially affecting survival and reproduction.

Intrinsic and extrinsic drivers shape frugivore functional diversity within a tree population
Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 2, February 2026.Abstract In sessile organisms like plants, interactions with strong fitness implications, such as seed dispersal, are influenced by individual traits and the surrounding environmental context. Recent studies have revealed that individual variation in plant populations shapes mutualistic interactions, but the focus often remains on the taxonomic ...
