Hidden Losses: Assessing the Risk of Coextinction Among Ectoparasitic Flies and Their Bat Host Species in Brazil

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
The potential impact of bat species extinction on the number of their ectoparasitic fly species, based on interaction data for Brazil. As bat host species are removed over time, more connected species (green) would experience steeper declines and lead to greater ectoparasite losses when compared to a random extinction model (gray).

Pruning slash drives ambrosia beetle (Curculionidae: Scolytinae, Platypodinae) activity in Khaya grandifoliola C.DC.: Slash removal as a preventive management strategy Resíduos de poda aumentam a atividade de besouros da ambrosia (Curculionidae: Scolytinae, Platypodinae) em Khaya grandifoliola C.DC.: A remoção dos resíduos como estratégia preventiva de manejo

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Slash retention increased ambrosia beetle activity in Khaya grandifoliola, acting as both breeding substrate and source of attractive volatile cues that promoted localized population buildup. Beetle attacks occurred only near retained slash, while no attacks were recorded in slash‐removal plots, demonstrating that residue removal effectively prevents ...

The dual crisis: Climate change simultaneously drives pollinator decline and pest outbreaks

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Climate change acts as an asymmetric ecological filter, favouring r‐selected pest traits (rapid reproduction, generalism) while disadvantaging K‐selected pollinators. For every 1°C of warming, bee species richness declines ~25% since the 1990s, while pest‐induced crop losses increase by 10%–25%. A network‐centric approach integrating climate‐responsive

AI‐Assisted Morphometric Analysis and Molecular Phylogeny for a Dactylogyrid (Monopisthocotyla) Skin Parasite of an Ornamental Crenuchid Fish From Brazil

Acta Zoologica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents a formal description and taxonomic appraisal of Cacatuocotyle adrianoi sp. n., a Neotropical parasite belonging to the family Dactylogyridae, integrating AI‐assisted morphometric analyses, molecular data, and phylogenetic reconstruction. Phylogenetic analyses recovered Cacatuocotyle adrianoi sp. n.

Evolutionary framework and tribal circumscription of Amaranthaceae sensu stricto based on a comprehensive phylogenomic analysis

Cladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract The evolutionary history of Amaranthaceae sensu stricto (s.s.) has been shaped by multiple whole‐genome duplications and rapid radiations, producing an ecologically diverse lineage whose internal relationships have long remained unresolved.

A revised classification system of the marronoid clade of spiders (Araneae), based on dense sampling phylogenomics and comparative morphology

Cladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract The marronoid clade is a globally distributed, ecologically diverse group of spiders. It is an important faunal component in both natural and synanthropic environments, and even found in aquatic and extreme habitats such as desert salt flats. The systematics of the marronoid clade has been notoriously unstable due to the widespread character ...

Taxonomic and functional diversity of urban bees of the world

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Bees play a pivotal role in terrestrial environments. Urbanization can affect these organisms and the ecosystem services they provide. However, knowledge of the global diversity of urban bees is limited. Thus, we summarized data on urban bee species identities and occurrences; compared distributions of all bees with those found in urban ...

Subspecies taxonomy reflects social and geographic patterns of taxonomic effort in tetrapods

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Subspecies have been used in conservation biology to account for intraspecific patterns in genetic diversity, which is crucial to long‐term population viability. Although over 3200 subspecies are currently assessed by the International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List, their biological relevance remains controversial.

Areas of high risk for mammalian biodiversity and nature's contributions to people under global warming

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Climate change has reached unprecedented levels, causing frequent extreme events like droughts and fires. These changes are driving a sharp rise in extinction risk for mammals and threatening key Nature's Contributions to People (NCP) such as clean water, air quality, and climate regulation.
