Go hard or go home: Major removal of woody vegetation and sediment greatly enhances wetland plant and water beetle diversity recovery in a farmland pond landscape

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 6, Issue 4, October–December 2025.
We investigated short‐term (1–3 years) pond biodiversity responses to restoration at a variety of management intensities. Ponds undergoing the most intense intervention (major woody vegetation and sediment removal) showed the strongest biodiversity uplift. This is likely in part due to a seedbank response and highlights the value of intense restoration

High levels of seed dispersal by a declining wintering population of migratory geese

open access: yesFreshwater Biology, Volume 69, Issue 12, Page 1857-1870, December 2024.
Abstract Ducks are known to be important seed dispersers, but the role of geese in plant dispersal is less clear. Wintering populations of migratory geese are undergoing rapid changes in distribution and habitat use in response to climate change and changes in land use, and the implications for seed dispersal have not previously been studied.

Recreational land use contributes to the loss of marine biodiversity

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 6, Issue 5, Page 1758-1773, October 2024.
Abstract Coastal areas are at the centre of human–nature relationship, shaped by recreation, tourism and aesthetic values. However, socioeconomic drivers of biodiversity change in coastal areas have received less attention. Soft sediment seafloors support diverse species communities and contribute to ecosystem functionality.

Interactions between stoneworts (Charales) and waterbirds

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 99, Issue 2, Page 390-408, April 2024.
ABSTRACT Stoneworts (Charales) are green algae that represent an important food resource for many waterbird species in Europe and elsewhere. Browsing avian herbivores (e.g. swan, goose, duck and coot species) consume Charales plant vegetative parts, by head‐dipping, up‐ending or diving.

Nieuwe waarnemingen van Tolypella (Charophyceae) in België

open access: yes, 2019
Three Tolypella species (T. glomerata, T. intricata and T. prolifera) have been recorded in Belgium, all of them only sparingly and with most observations dating from the 19th C. We document new records of T. glomerata and T. intricata from stagnant fresh water in the Flemish region and discuss the general ecology and distribution of these rare species,

Tolypella glomerata Leonhardi

open access: yes
Tolypella glomerata (Desvaux) Leonhardi Fig. 6 a – c Geographical distribution. T. glomerata probably has a cosmopolitan distribution (Stewart and Hatton-Ellis 2020). It was recently reported from India (Verma et al. 2021) and Israel (Barinova and Smith 2022); from Europe in Iceland (Hrafnsdottir et al. 2019), Belgium (Denys et al.

The genus Tolypella (div. Charophyta) from Indian subcontinent - A cytotaxonomic approach.

open access: yesCYTOLOGIA, 1986
Cytotaxonomic studies in the genus Tolypella (T. nidjca var. glomerata (Desv. in Lois.) Leonh. em. R. D. W.) have been conducted for the first time from Indian subcontinent and a chromosome count of n=11 has been established in this taxon. The hybridized origin of 11chromosome number and the concept of three basic chromosome numbers for this genus as ...
