The American cocoa pod borer, Carmenta foraseminis, an emerging pest of cocoa: A review El barrenador americano de la mazorca de cacao, Carmenta foraseminis, una plaga emergente del cacao: una revisión

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Abstract This review provides a synthesis of the available knowledge on Carmenta foraseminis, an emerging cocoa pest in northern South America. This moth was first described in 1995 in Panama, and its proliferation across the Amazon basin is currently threatening the production of cocoa in the region and may endanger the sector's sustainability. Hence,

Race in the Metabolic Rift: The Metaphor and Materiality of Whiteness

Antipode, EarlyView.
Abstract If metabolic rifts are ruptures, chasms, or divisions, what happens inside them? Shifting attention from multi‐scalar socio‐ecological and corporeal metabolisms towards the internal dynamics of rupture, this paper returns to the origins of metabolic thought to see what happens at the bottom of these clefts within nature.

Effects of protection on large‐bodied reef fishes in the western Indian Ocean

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Predatory and large‐bodied coral reef fishes have fundamental roles in the functioning and biodiversity of coral reef ecosystems, but their populations are declining, largely due to overexploitation in fisheries. These fishes include sharks, groupers, Humphead wrasse (Cheilinus undulatus), and Green Humphead parrotfish (Bolbometopon muricatum).

Integrating data to assess occupancy patterns of an endangered bumble bee

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract There is growing interest in integrating community science data with structured monitoring data to estimate changes in distribution patterns of imperiled species, including pollinators. However, significant challenges remain in determining how unstructured community science data should be incorporated into formal analyses of species ...

Effect of primate protection on threatened and endemic vertebrates, plants, ecosystem services, and future climate refugia

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Primates, 69% of which are threatened with extinction, are the third most specious order of mammals. We used primates as model taxa to examine the umbrella effects of primates on ecosystem services and the protection of other vertebrates and seed plants in Yunnan Province, China.

A spatial planning approach for the identification of critical habitat for threatened species

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The designation of critical habitat for the conservation of threatened species has long been recognized in the environmental legislation of different countries. However, translating vague legislation about critical habitat into practical real‐world designation remains challenging because of its sensitivity to many context‐ and species‐specific

Exploring gaps, biases, and research priorities in the evidence for reptile conservation actions

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract With over 21% of reptile species threatened with extinction, there is an urgent need to ensure conservation actions to protect and restore populations are informed by relevant, reliable evidence. We examined the geographic and taxonomic distribution of 707 studies that tested the effects of actions to conserve reptiles synthesized in ...

Assessing limits of sustainable seed harvest in wild plant populations

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Seed harvesting from wild plant populations is key for ecological restoration, but it may threaten the persistence of the source populations. Consequently, several countries have set guidelines limiting the proportions of harvestable seeds. However, these guidelines are inconsistent and lack a solid empirical basis.

Innovation and adaption in local governments in the face of COVID‐19: Determinants of effective crisis management 地方政府面对新冠肺炎时的创新与适应措施:有效危机管理的决定因素 Innovación y adaptación en gobiernos locales frente al COVID‐19: Determinantes de una gestión eficaz de la crisis

Risk, Hazards &Crisis in Public Policy, Volume 16, Issue 2, June 2025.
Abstract Local governments were instrumental in managing the COVID‐19 crisis in countries worldwide. This study examines the methods that local governments in Israel used to successfully manage the COVID‐19 crisis. We explored the structural characteristics of the localities that excelled at managing the pandemic.
