Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 3, March 2026.The mutualistic interaction between truffle‐like ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi and mycophagous mammals is fundamental to forest health, supporting fungal dispersal, soil structure, nutrient cycling, and plant community dynamics worldwide. However, climate change may disrupt this mutualism in unprecedented ways by altering truffle‐like ECM sporing body ...

Wildlife Letters, Volume 3, Issue 3, Page 99-108, September 2025.Climate change is leading to sympatric populations of northern (Glaucomys sabrinus) and southern (Glaucomys volans) flying squirrels; however, we do not know how vital rates like survival are changing following this novel secondary contact. Using mark‐recapture data from sympatric populations, we found nearly identical annual survival rates (0.20 and 0.
