Tree Cover and Temperature Shape the Distribution of Epiphytic Pleurozia in Asia: Forest Havens in a Warming Climate

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
This study uses an optimized MaxEnt model to predict the potential distribution of Pleurozia across Asia under current and future climate scenarios. Our results show that evergreen broadleaf forest cover, temperature annual range, mean diurnal range, and altitude are the key environmental determinants, and that suitable habitats are projected to expand

Elevation Filters Lizard Species Occurrences and Assemblages in Chitwan Annapurna Landscape, Nepal

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
We investigated lizard species richness,assemblage patterns, and environmental drivers along the elevational gradient in the Chitwan Annapurna Landscape during 2018–2019. We recorded 23 lizard species and found that species richness varied significantly and non‐linearly with elevation, peaking at mid elevation. Species turnover dominated beta diversity,

Nesting and Habitat Characteristics of White‐Browed Sparrow‐Weavers (Plocepasser mahali, Smith) at Chemeron, Baringo South, Kenya

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
. ABSTRACT Arid and semi‐arid lands (ASALs) support tropical wooded shrublands and grasslands that sustain a diverse array of flora and fauna, including specialized avian communities. However, as the demand for food, fuel, and other natural resources intensifies, these inherently fragile ecosystems face mounting pressure, resulting in significant ...

Vegetation on the move: elevational shifts and greening dynamics across the Himalayan alpine zone

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2026, Issue 6, June 2026.
This study investigates alpine ‘vegetation line' (the upper limit of continuous plant community) dynamics in the Himalayan alpine zone (HAZ) over a 24‐year timescale (1999–2022) using maximum NDVI products derived from Landsat series datasets, adjusted for sampling bias using phenological modelling.
