Analyis on the vascular epiphytes of tree ferns in a montane rain forest in Costa Rica
The relationships between epiphytes and host specifity are known. We investigated the relation between specific epiphytes and tree fern trunks. Only some epiphytes are frequent or very frequent on tree ferns.

Balancing tracks and trees: Assessing railroad impact on Brazilian biodiversity
The Brazilian West–East Integration Railway (FIOL) aims to boost the national economy by improving commodity transport; however, it crosses three of Brazil's most biodiverse and fragile regions: the Caatinga, Cerrado and Atlantic Forest. Using digitised plant records and land‐use analyses, our study reveals significant vegetation loss within the ...

Comparative Ionomics of Lycopodiaceae and Selaginellaceae Across Diverse Soil Types in Japan
We conducted a comparative ionomic analysis of Lycopodiaceae and Selaginellaceae collected from diverse soil types in Japan, including serpentine soils and solfatara fields, to examine how evolutionary lineage and soil environment shape elemental composition in lycophytes.

ABSTRACT Global increases in tree mortality from climate change and land‐use are altering forest structures, impacting canopy‐dwelling plants like vascular epiphytes, which depend on host trees (phorophytes). When a phorophyte dies standing, it becomes a snag, the local substrate conditions change and microclimatic exposure may increase, particularly ...

ABSTRACT Species distributions are shaped by complex biotic and abiotic interactions, which are often not fully understood. We investigated the ecological basis of co‐occurrence and distribution of four partially sympatric and allopatric cryptic mouse lemur species (Microcebus spp.) in the Ambatosoa and Analanjirofo region of northeastern Madagascar ...

Contrasting Forest Trajectories Drive Changes in Bird Functional Traits
ABSTRACT Aim We investigated how bird functional diversity varies across forest habitat types with distinct successional trajectories, namely (1) natural succession forests, with naturally regenerating forests established on former grasslands; (2) secondary forest remnants resulting from deforestation; and (3) conserved forests.

Counter‐Stigmatization in the Digital Age: The Case of the Sex Tech Award Incident
Abstract Scholars have shown considerable interest in how organizations manage stigma when powerful actors discredit them and their products. However, research has paid less attention to how organizations might deflect stigma back onto their stigmatizers.
