A new genus for Thalurania ridgwayi (Trochilidae)
Summary.—Mexican Woodnymph Thalurania ridgwayi was long included in the genus Thalurania. A previously published molecular phylogenetic study found that this species is in fact sister to the genus Eupherusa. We discuss whether ridgwayi is better lumped with Eupherusa or placed in a different genus, and consider that thelatter arrangement best reflects ...

Spatial Mismatches of Plant‐Pollinator Interactions Under Future Climate Conditions
ABSTRACT Aim Global change could disrupt critical ecological interactions, especially if interacting species shift their geographic ranges at different rates or in different directions. Functional redundancy within generalized networks could make them more resilient to climate change than networks with highly specialized interactions.
