Forest structure and connectivity drive the functional recovery of seed rain
Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 2, February 2026.Local forest structure and landscape‐scale connectivity shape distinct but complementary pathways of the functional recovery of seed rain in tropical forests. Structural complexity promotes functionally diverse plant–frugivore interactions locally, while connectivity facilitates the arrival of late‐successional seeds from external sources.

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 1, Page 153-177, January 2026.ABSTRACT Kalavan‐2, a high‐altitude (∼1640 m a.s.l.) open‐air site in Armenia, preserves stratified Middle Paleolithic occupations with a rich small‐vertebrate record. Luminescence dating has placed site formation between ~60 and 45 ka, but without independent chronological control of the microvertebrate accumulation.

Chimpanzees and Elephants Can Be Used as Reliable Flagship‐Umbrella Species for Eco‐Labels
Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 1, January 2026.This study assessed the potential of two flagship species, chimpanzees and elephants, to be used as reliable umbrella species for broader biodiversity conservation around Kibale National Park, Uganda. Using 4 years of camera‐trap and illegal activity data, we modeled species co‐occurrence and species‐specific responses to anthropogenic pressures ...
