Evaluating Satellite Monitoring of Vegetation Health With Fauna Habitat Managers in Mind

open access: yesEcological Management &Restoration, Volume 27, Issue 2, May 2026.
ABSTRACT In Australia, pastoralists, not‐for‐profit, and government organisations are managing stands of open woodland to conserve threatened species' habitats. These land areas are usually larger than a cropping field but smaller than many National Parks in Australia.

Human Disturbance but Not Predation Risk Is Associated With Increased Vigilance in Roe Deer

open access: yesEthology, Volume 132, Issue 5, Page 336-348, May 2026.
Roe deer vigilance is lower in natural than in modified habitats, decreases with group size, but is not significantly influenced by stable wolf presence, suggesting habitat‐driven risk perception and reliance on spatial avoidance over increased alertness.

Bee community and trait‐based responses to fire in a Mediterranean landscape

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 3, Page 530-547, May 2026.
Fire drives a short‐term increase in bee abundance and diversity, despite its strong negative impact on floral resources. Acting as an environmental filter, fire shapes bee communities as increased post‐fire fine‐scale heterogeneity favors bees with specific functional traits such as ground‐nesting and generalist species.

Towards red listing understudied tropical insects: A case study of the dung beetles of Sabah, Malaysian Borneo

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 3, Page 511-529, May 2026.
We performed an IUCN Red List assessment for 159 dung beetle species from Sabah, Malaysian Borneo. Due to the lack of population demographic data, only Criterion B (i.e. geographic range) could be applied. Our findings show that the IUCN Red List Criteria can be applied to insect species based solely on occurrence data but highlight the importance of ...

Turning Mediterranean Farmlands Into Priority Habitats: Natural Expansion of Juniper Woodlands After Agricultural Abandonment

open access: yesJournal of Vegetation Science, Volume 37, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Spanish juniper woodlands are expanding across central Spain as farmland is abandoned. By combining 34 years of land‐cover data with high‐resolution photogrammetry and field measurements, we show that juniper growth depends on topography, solar exposure and competition with shrubs. High irradiance increases biomass in older stands but limits young ones,
