Two new species of Calea ser. Multiplinerviae (Asteraceae: Neurolaeneae) from Brazil
Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Detailed studies of specimens from Rondônia and Mato Grosso do Sul showed that two new species have been misidentified: Calea micropappa resembles Calea pilosa, but differs by leaf apex obtuse to acuminate (versus acute), paleae present (versus paleae absent), disc corolla lobes 1.2–1.3 mm long (versus 0.7–0.8 mm), and pappus scales 0.1–0.25 mm long ...

Status and future of seed conservation of threatened plants in the post‐2020 era
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Ambitious targets have been set to backup seeds of threatened plants by the global strategy for plant conservation (GSPC), but it is unclear in how far these targets have been met and how seed collection should be organized to meet future challenges. Here, we provide an overview of the status of 44 countries in achieving seed conservation targets.

Taxonomic and functional diversity of urban bees of the world
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Bees play a pivotal role in terrestrial environments. Urbanization can affect these organisms and the ecosystem services they provide. However, knowledge of the global diversity of urban bees is limited. Thus, we summarized data on urban bee species identities and occurrences; compared distributions of all bees with those found in urban ...

“On a tree”, “terrestrial”, or “on the rocks”? Habit diversity in the megadiverse genus Peperomia
Plant Biology, EarlyView.The plasticity of a large proportion of Peperomia species to occupy multiple types of microhabitats is not well documented due to the typically rigid categorization of habitat use. Therefore, the numerical approach presented is methodologically innovative to advance ecological data integration to provide a more realistic visualization of the habitat ...

Extent, characteristics and policy applications of Key Biodiversity Areas
Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 1735-1759, August 2026.ABSTRACT A global standard for the identification of Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) was published 10 years ago to provide a unified set of criteria for identifying ‘sites of significance for the global persistence of biodiversity’. We review the initiative's origins, the KBA identification process, characteristics of the current network, threats, policy

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 4, Page 1175-1194, July 2026.The value of herbarium specimens depends largely on the accuracy and accessibility of the data captured, which is dependent on curation practices. Previous studies have shown high levels of misidentification in collections, which become more problematic with increased access.
