Impacts of bat use of anthropogenic structures on bats and humans

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Human‐induced landscape modifications and climate change are forcing wildlife into closer contact with humans as the availability of natural habitats decreases. Although the importance of anthropogenic structures for the conservation of species is widely recognized, negative narratives surrounding bats may impede conservation efforts in human ...

Mapping bee diversity with landscape‐level models to inform conservation

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 2, February 2026.
Native bee conservation is complicated by limited distribution data and life history knowledge. However, recent state‐wide pollinator surveys, combined with species distribution models that account for biased datasets and capture regional habitat associations, present a strong foundation for informing essential conservation action.

Landscape‐Driven Isolation Among, but High Genetic Diversity Within, Peripheral Populations of a Threatened Frog

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Many amphibians are experiencing declines, which are exacerbated for populations near range edges. To inform conservation strategies, we sampled sites of Blanchard's Cricket Frog (Acris blanchardi) at the northern periphery of their range to determine if modern declines are associated with genetic factors, delineate management units, and ...

A Typology of Australian Terrestrial Bird Communities

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Holistic measurement of the response of fauna communities to interventions requires suitable community condition metrics. However, the development of such metrics is hindered by the absence of broad‐scale typologies at suitable spatial and ecological resolutions. We aimed to derive a preliminary typology of terrestrial bird communities for

Vegetation biomass and landscape context influence web‐building spider dietary breadth in urban vacant lots

Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, Page 126-140, February 2026.
Spider dietary breadth and overlap increased with imperviousness, suggesting that prey and spiders are concentrating in vacant lots in these landscapes. Higher vegetation biomass, which results from reduced mowing frequency, was associated with increased dietary breadth and shared prey between spiders.
