Testing the morphology‐ and intuition‐based taxonomic hypotheses using integrative approach: unexpected discovery of triplet of sibling species within a widespread Eurasian butterfly, Hyponephele lycaon

open access: yesCladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract In well‐studied groups of organisms, the taxonomic landscape can be very complex, with several alternative classifications describing diversity within the same set of populations. For example, three hypotheses have previously been proposed to describe the taxonomy of the common and widespread Eurasian Dusky Meadow Brown butterfly, Hyponephele ...

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

open access: yesConservation 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.

Towards a unified publicly accessible database of avian type specimens

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Type specimens represent the crucial physical reference for any scientific bird name, but type material is scattered widely across the globe, and there is still no one comprehensive source documenting the presence, status and condition of all avian type specimens, as well as associated information on nomenclature and the validity of individual names ...

To stop or not? Mediterranean migrants differ in both arrival condition and refuelling success after barrier crossing

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Understanding refuelling performance at stopover sites is central to elucidating the migration strategies of passerines, particularly at Mediterranean landfall islands where birds arrive after crossing major ecological barriers. We investigated fuel deposition dynamics and potential flight range in five long‐distance migrant passerines (Great Reed ...

Assessment of genetic polymorphism in sea buckthorn (Hippophae L.) of different environmentally-geographical origin by ISSR-markers

open access: yesВавиловский журнал генетики и селекции, 2017
Sea buckthorn, despite of high popularity at the moment, is not a common object of genetic researches. Some efforts of foreign scientists in this field are concerned with only big systematic groups like species and subspecies.

Small birches matter: Beetle diversity on burned birch and pine in boreal forests

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Burned birch hosted higher beetle richness than burned pine. Higher beetle richness on birch was associated with its greater post‐fire mortality, with charred, dead birches attracting more specialized beetles. Retaining burned birch alongside pine can enhance saproxylic and pyrophilous beetle diversity after prescribed burning.

Governing and Living Through Failure: Russian Speakers in Ethnocentric Nation‐Building Projects of Estonia and Latvia

open access: yesNations and Nationalism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article contributes to nationalism studies by demonstrating how states use failure as a governance tool to regulate national belonging and by showing how people experience and reinterpret failure in ways that unsettle dominant national imaginaries.
