Ecological Isolation Maintains the Species Boundaries Between Two Sympatric <i>Cycas</i> From Southwest China. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
The study reveals that sympatric Cycas species (C. pectinata and C. simplicipinna) maintain strict species boundaries without hybridization, driven by reproductive isolation mechanisms (divergent coning times and pollinator specificity) and ecological niche differentiation (habitat preferences, soil pH differences).

Biological invasions: a global assessment of geographic distributions, long-term trends, and data gaps. [PDF]

Biol Rev Camb Philos Soc
ABSTRACT Biological invasions are one of the major drivers of biodiversity decline and have been shown to have far‐reaching consequences for society and the economy. Preventing the introduction and spread of alien species represents the most effective solution to reducing their impacts on nature and human well‐being.

Erotylina Curran (Coleoptera, Erotylidae, Erotylini): redescription of type species, potential species groups and diversity of color patterns

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2021
The colorful genus Erotylina Curran was proposed to include a group of species originally described in Erotylus Fabricius but differing by the lack of three longitudinal carinae on the tibiae. The taxonomy of Erotylina is mostly based on coloration while
