Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Human‐driven landscape change, particularly urbanization, is reshaping pollinator communities, yet the functional traits that mediate species persistence remain poorly understood. Dietary specialization is commonly used to predict species vulnerability.

Geographic risks to functional groups of mammals and birds from habitat loss in Mexico
Abstract There is a need to quantify the impact of habitat loss due to anthropogenic factors on different aspects of biodiversity, such as functional trait diversity represented by functional groups (FGs). We developed a metric to assess the weighted risk of loss of habitat for 33 FGs of mammals and 36 FGs of birds in Mexico based on potential ...

Abstract Insectivorous, Afro‐Palearctic migrant birds provide cross‐border ecosystem services, but many are declining rapidly. The complex life cycle of migrant birds makes their conservation difficult, but understanding where they spend time during the breeding season can help indicate where those actions will be most effective.

Abstract Human development is a driver of global change and a major threat to biodiversity. Protected areas maintain and support biodiversity, but outside stressors, such as climate change and land use change, can negatively influence natural resources within protected areas.

High Densities of Large Herbivores Rapidly Disrupt Ecosystem Integrity
Human‐driven increases in large herbivore populations are emerging as a widespread global change pressure on terrestrial ecosystems. Using the largest hectare‐scale herbivore density manipulation experiment conducted to date, we show that high deer densities rapidly disrupt ecosystem integrity across multiple dimensions of biodiversity and ecosystem ...
