Developing a macroecology for human‐altered ecosystems
Ecography, EarlyView.Although anthropogenically‐induced ecological disruptions are fundamentally important in defining ecosystem properties, they are largely overlooked by macroecological theory. Anthropogenic disruptions and their effects are generally not comparable to one another, nor to disturbances that are part of natural disturbance regimes.

Consumer diversity drives stronger predation in tropical marine communities
Ecography, EarlyView.Biotic interactions are predicted to be stronger in the tropics compared to higher latitudes, contributing to observed patterns of global biodiversity. While increased consumer diversity and more complex food webs are expected in tropical communities, the trophic dynamics underlying strong regional effects of predation are not well understood.

Ecography, EarlyView.Projected warming and drying raise concerns about the resilience of stress‐adapted ecosystems, including the Brazilian Campo Rupestre, an exceptionally biodiverse mountaintop grassland mosaic on ancient, nutrient‐poor substrates. Here, we combine field‐based trait data and long‐term remote sensing to assess the functional structure and temporal ...

Ecography, EarlyView.Ocean warming is driving the redistribution of species at a global scale. Biogeographic transition zones are hotspots of species range shifts, as both warm‐ and cold‐adapted species are found toward contrasting range edges. While anecdotal evidence suggests some distributional shifts have occurred in the northeast Atlantic, the empirical evidence base ...

Hot spots or hot moments? Contextualizing the spatio‐temporal scale of research on animal inputs
Ecography, EarlyView.Mammals play important roles in redistributing elements across ecosystems, concentrating biogeochemical inputs across both space and time. However, research on zoogeochemical inputs is often constrained by logistical considerations, potentially limiting our knowledge of mammals' impacts on biogeochemical patterns and processes.

Biogeography of intertidal invertebrates is influenced by latitude along the west coast of Australia
Ecography, EarlyView.Along the west coast of Australia, intertidal rock platforms support high invertebrate diversities that provide vital ecosystem services, yet patterns in diversity are not well understood. Here, we document and examine the invertebrate assemblages on intertidal rock platforms in Western Australia and delineate ecoregions according to assemblage ...

Tracing the origins and evolution of nymphalid butterflies (Lepidoptera) in the Atlantic Forest
Ecography, EarlyView.Understanding the relative roles of diversification and dispersal is key to explaining large‐scale biogeographical patterns. Although both processes are known to shape biodiversity, their relative contributions remain understudied for many organisms. Here, we examine how these processes have jointly contributed to the exceptional diversity and endemism

Ecography, EarlyView.Studies using climatic gradients play a key role in our understanding of the importance of rainfall and temperature as factors regulating species diversity and distribution, and thus of likely responses to climate change. However, such studies currently consider above‐ground species only, ignoring the diverse hypogaeic (subterranean) invertebrate fauna.
