Understanding the winter diets of endangered ungulates is critical for developing effective conservation strategies in temperate ecosystems, where seasonal fluctuations significantly affect food availability. The long‐tailed goral Naemorhedus caudatus, an herbivorous ungulate listed as a category I ‘Endangered species' (EN) under the Korean Wildlife ...

Aechmea Ruiz & Pavón from the northern portion of the Atlantic Forest
Herein we present a taxonomic synopsis of Aechmea species from Alagoas, Pernambuco, Paraíba, Rio Grande do Norte and Ceará states. The lack of a taxonomic key for identification of species, the high rate of endemism and the recent novelties published ...

Temporal dynamics of aquatic communities and implications for pond conservation [PDF]
Conservation through the protection of particular habitats is predicated on the assumption that the conservation value of those habitats is stable. We test this assumption for ponds by investigating temporal variation in macroinvertebrate and macrophyte ...

ABSTRACT Aim Refugial areas and habitats are thought to have played a key role in facilitating both the emergence and persistence of floristic diversity in the Greater Cape Floristic Region (GCFR) of South Africa. While refugial areas may be identified using a diversity of biological proxies (e.g., narrow‐range endemism; paleoendemism), there is a ...

New Names and New Combinations of Jarava, Cinna, Coleanthus, Sclerochloa and Graphephorum (Poales)
When establishing a new genus, the utilization of incorrect genera or mere synonyms as comparative taxa will inevitably result in the emergence of a new synonym and leading to new taxonomic confusions.

Yes, we CAM! First evidence of CAM photosynthesis in a carnivorous plant
Evidence for weak, facultative CAM is reported for the first time in a carnivorous plant, i.e., in Mexican representatives of Pinguicula (Lentibulariaceae). Abstract Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) is a photosynthetic adaptation enabling higher CO2 concentration close to Rubisco and increased water use efficiency.
