Historical shifts, geographic biases, and biological constraints shape mammal species discovery
Journal of Systematics and Evolution, Volume 64, Issue 3, Page 536-547, May 2026.Taxonomic descriptions of mammals have become more robust from 1990 to 2025, with increased specimen sampling, broader comparisons, and more integrative methods. However, disparities remain: tropical and small‐bodied species are less comprehensively described, reflecting ongoing geographic and biological biases.

Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 3, March 2026.The genus Croton (Euphorbiaceae) is an exceptionally megadiverse genus, encompassing roughly 1200 species that are predominantly distributed across tropical regions globally. For the New World, the genus is organized into three subgenera (Adenophylli, Geiseleria and Quadrilobi) and 31 sections, with C. sect. Barhamia standing out with its approximately

Life history induces markedly divergent insect responses to habitat loss
Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 1, Page 54-64, January 2026.This study pioneers the use of deep learning to rapidly assess over 22,000 Amazonian insects, revealing life history‐dependent winners and losers from forest loss. It shows that terrestrial insects decline while aquatic insects thrive, with body size influencing dispersal, offering key insights for biodiversity conservation in tropical fragmented ...

Geophysical Prospecting, Volume 73, Issue 9, November 2025.ABSTRACT In Brazil, concerns about marine life have resulted in strong restrictions on seismic operations, with a minimum distance of 60 km between source vessels and an exclusion zone of 1000 m for marine mammals. These restrictions impact survey efficiency, duration, logistics and cost. Optimized and physically smaller seismic sources may reduce cost
