Regulatory compliance and support for altered management of the exotic pet trade

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Globally, the exotic pet trade has contributed to species invasion, disease, and animal welfare risks. Although scientists have advocated for increased trade regulation, the success of management and regulatory efforts depends on compliance by participants in the exotic pet trade. We used a regulatory compliance framework to investigate exotic

Effectiveness of territorial protection categories in conserving an endemic island bird during population fluctuation

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Static boundaries of protected areas failed to capture the Canary Islands stonechat's shifting distribution patterns. Abstract Protected areas represent cornerstones of biodiversity conservation on oceanic islands, yet their effectiveness for endemic species remains poorly evaluated. We assessed how various territorial protection categories conserve an

Effects of soil moisture on microhabitat selection of two fossorial amphisbaenian reptiles from contrasting environments

Journal of Zoology, EarlyView.
Extreme events expected under climate change (prolonged drought or torrential rains) alter soil conditions, yet their effects on fossorial vertebrates remain understudied. We tested substrate selection across moisture levels in two amphisbaenians from contrasting climates: Blanus cinereus (Iberian temperate forest) and Trogonophis wiegmanni (North ...

Elevation, rather than land use, causes important dietary shifts in the Mediterranean golden eagle

Journal of Zoology, EarlyView.
In an ever‐changing landscape, golden eagles in the Iberian Peninsula demonstrate remarkable dietary adaptability. We monitored 50 distinct breeding events over 4 years using camera traps, collecting over 520 000 images. Elevation, rather than land use, emerged as the main driver of prey composition: lagomorphs and columbiforms dominated at lower ...

Whole genome sequencing of historical specimens from the world's largest fungal collection yields high‐quality assemblies

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary High‐throughput molecular studies of museum specimens (museomics) have great potential in biodiversity research, but fungal historical collections have scarcely been examined, leading to no comprehensive methodological assessments. Here we present a whole genome sequencing (WGS) project conducted at the Fungarium of the Royal Botanic Gardens ...

Limited drought tolerance in the neotropical seasonally dry forest plants impairs future species richness

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Global climate change will likely modify the plant assemblages of the Neotropical seasonally dry forest based on the physiological capabilities of the species. Abstract Neotropical seasonal dry forest (NSDF) is one of the most threatened ecosystems according to global climate change predictions.
