Corridors increase ant diversity over time

Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Globally, habitat loss and fragmentation pose significant threats to biodiversity. Habitat corridors are often used in fragmented landscapes to reconnect isolated patches. However, understanding how corridors function can be challenging, as their effects may be confounded with simultaneous changes to habitat area, edge amount, and connectivity

Adjuvant Antibacterial Effects of Mouriri Elliptica Against Clinical Multidrug Resistant Gram‐Negative Bacterial Strains

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.
The ethanolic leaf extract of Mouriri elliptica exhibited antibacterial and antibiofilm activities against multidrug‐resistant clinical isolates and enhanced the activity of ampicillin. Its diverse chemical profile and low acute toxicity support this Cerrado species as a promising source of natural antibacterial adjuvants. ABSTRACT Bacterial resistance

A new old species of Tetracera (Dilleniaceae) from Espinhaço Range, Brazil

Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 10, October 2026.
Tetracera is the only genus within Dilleniaceae with a pantropical distribution. During efforts for a taxonomic revision of the neotropical species, we identified incongruences between application of names and their taxonomic identities, based on protologue and type specimen analysis. Here we describe a new species for the genus bearing a single carpel

The importance of biodiversity components differs among wood‐based material Nature's contributions to people (NCP) in a tropical montane ecosystem

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 10, October 2026.
Biodiversity can influence forest productivity, but this does not necessarily translate into higher provision of wood‐based Nature's contributions to people (NCP), as only a subset of the wood produced is used for each NCP. Biodiversity–NCP relationships therefore require further assessment.

Bushmeat consumption frequency and preferences among rural households in a West African savanna landscape: Implications for food security and conservation

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 10, Page 3416-3429, October 2026.
Abstract The drivers of consumer demand for bushmeat are relatively well studied in tropical forest systems, but much less so in savanna areas. This is important because differing ecological and socio‐economic conditions lead to different factors affecting the relationship between local communities and their natural resources.

Ensuring sustainability and equity within the global wild meat sector is key to achieving the Kunming‐Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework targets

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 10, Page 3204-3214, October 2026.
Abstract Governments around the world have committed to ensuring that biodiversity is sustainably used and managed as part of the Kunming‐Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (KM‐GBF) adopted to halt and reverse biodiversity loss by 2050. However, achieving sustainable wildlife management in circumstances when wild animals are consumed as food is an ...

Impact of Anthropogenic Activities and Climate Change on the Wetlands in the North‐West of Madagascar

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Macrophytes are vulnerable to various factors in their natural ecosystems, including climatic, ecological, and anthropogenic changes. This study aims to document how these factors influence floristic composition. Four sites were investigated in the Boeny Region of northwest Madagascar: Ambatoboeny, Marovoay, Ankarafantsika National Park, and ...

The 2023–2024 El Niño as a Preview of Future Tropical Forest Climate

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Tropical forests are an important component of the global carbon cycle. Increasingly frequent droughts and heatwaves are undermining their resilience, with far‐reaching impacts on local livelihoods and on regional and global hydrological cycles.
