Sixteen Years Later: Revisiting Cultural Complexes and the Roots of Archetypal Thematic Analysis (ATA)1

open access: yesJournal of Analytical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Written as a letter to my 28‐year‐old self, this paper explores the development of my engagement with cultural complexes. On August 18, 2009, I finished a chapter applying cultural complexes to a history of China, complete with elaborate charts that seemed to confirm a process by which cultural complexes are formed, and how China’s then recent

Impact of food scarcity on the foraging dynamics of Eriopis connexa (Germar, 1824) (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) Impacto da escassez de alimentos na dinâmica de forrageamento de Eriopis connexa (Germar, 1824) (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae)

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Starvation duration alters predatory behaviour of Eriopis connexa, affecting aphid consumption and survival dynamics. Increased starvation enhances attack rate, accelerating prey depletion without substantially affecting handling time. Functional response remains type II, with stronger predation under prolonged food deprivation.

Optimizing biodiversity offsetting for habitat succession and colonization dynamics

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Biodiversity offsetting aims to compensate for ecological losses from development through conservation and restoration. However, its long‐term outcomes under repeated impact–offset cycles remain uncertain. Using a conceptual forest succession model, we evaluated how offset outcomes are affected by interactions among compensation scale ...

Dormancy type, seed traits, and species identity shape seed‐associated fungal community composition in tropical pioneer trees

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Dormancy type, as well as chemical and physical seed traits, explain variation in seed fungal community composition. Summary Seed germination is regulated in many plants by seed dormancy, while postdispersal survival is often determined by soilborne fungi that infect seeds.

Climate Change and Habitat Loss Threaten Taxonomic and Functional Diversity of Endemic Primates in South America

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 11, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim To assess impacts of climate change and forest cover on taxonomic and functional diversity of endemic and threatened primates in South America. Location South America. Taxon Endemic and threatened primates. Methods We modelled climatic suitability for 68 taxa using consensus species distribution models for a baseline period (1981–2010) and

Habitat and spatial trends of U.K. wintering waterbird populations over 50 years

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 5, October 2026.
Abstract The United Kingdom is an important wintering ground for millions of waterbirds. Most U.K. wintering waterbird populations increased between 1970 and the mid‐1990s, but declined thereafter. We examined U.K. population indices in 46 wintering waterbird species in two 25‐year periods, 1970–1994 and 1995–2019, to identify which waterbird groups ...

Soundscapes of the Upper Amazon: Seasonal Activity Patterns of Insectivorous Bats in Cordillera Escalera, Peru

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 58, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Bats, the second most diverse group of mammals, play essential ecological roles in insect control, pollination, and seed dispersal. In Peru, insectivorous bats remain poorly studied, particularly in high‐elevation rainforest ecosystems of the upper Amazon region.

Using customs data to understand overlooked trade in non‐CITES birds between Africa and Asia

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract The international trade in live birds poses risks to animals, people, and biodiversity. To effectively mitigate these risks, decision‐makers require information on the volume, dynamics, and direction of trade. Despite Africa once being the largest exporter of birds by region, very little data exist on recent trade in live birds not listed on ...
