Environmental Stress Drives Plasticity in Sexual Bimaturism in the Black Soldier Fly (Hermetia illucens Linnaeus, 1758)

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 7, Page 736-749, July 2026.
We measured the plasticity in sexual bimaturism (SBM; differences between sexes in the timing of sexual maturity) in the black soldier fly (BSF) by exposing larvae to nutrient availability and humidity stress. Our results show that SBM can range between protandry and protogyny depending on the environmental quality. Additionally, we found the degree of

Effects of selective harvest on antler size of white‐tailed deer in Texas, USA

Wildlife Monographs, Volume 222, Issue 1, June 2026.
We conducted 20 years of experiments on the selective harvest of white‐tailed deer by antler size, judged inferior, in 2 areas of South Texas, USA. Selective harvest increased the phenotypic antler size of older males in one study area but not the other. There was little evidence of evolution resulting from selective harvesting. Abstract There has been

Effects of Warming on Growth and Leaf Colonization by Litter Mat‐Forming Fungi in a Wet Tropical Forest in Puerto Rico

Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 3, May 2026.
We took advantage of a long‐running field warming experiment, the Tropical Responses to Altered Climate Experiment (TRACE) located in the Luquillo Experimental Forest in Puerto Rico to evaluate the effects of +4°C warming on relative growth rates (RGR) and time to leaf colonization of a recently senesced leaf for drought‐tolerant species Marasmius ...

Threats to and management of Natura 2000 protected areas relative to agricultural practices

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract The Natura 2000 (N2K) network combines biodiversity protection and socioeconomic targets. Human activities, such as agricultural practices, can affect biodiversity in N2K sites in diverse ways. Limiting activities with negative impacts while enforcing land management that supports biodiversity is crucial for effective conservation.

Assessing the integration of social marketing principles in ivory demand management interventions in China and Southeast Asia

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Consumer demand for ivory perpetuates the unsustainable and illegal killing of African elephants and other wildlife species. Interventions that aim to change consumer behavior are increasingly recognized as a crucial element of demand management. However, poor design and implementation have limited their effectiveness.

Global distribution and contexts of interactions between humans and non‐human primates: A systematic review

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 3, Page 551-568, March 2026.
Abstract Understanding the frequency and socio‐ecological drivers of contacts between humans and non‐human primates (NHPs) is crucial for enhancing coexistence that favours NHP conservation, while limiting negative consequences such as aggressions and cross‐species disease transmission.
