High β‐diversity in fig wasp communities driven by species turnover in widely distributed Neotropical fig trees

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2026, Issue 2, February 2026.
Wasp communities associated with fig trees, Ficus spp., are a model system to investigate how local and regional processes shape biodiversity across large geographical ranges. We investigated the β‐diversity of fig wasp assemblages associated with three widely distributed Neotropical fig species – F. citrifolia, F. obtusifolia and F. pertusa – using 27

Age of innovation: Progress in systematic botany in the 20th century

open access: yesTAXON, Volume 75, Issue 1, Febuary 2026.
Abstract Systematic botany can be regarded as the oldest of the botanical sciences, having originated with the ancient Greeks. Although much progress has been achieved in systematic botany over nearly two millennia, in the 20th century, many significant innovations took place in revealing processes of evolution, principles and methods of classification,

Body Mass Records of Zoo‐Managed Rhinoceros (Ceratotherium simum, Diceros bicornis, Rhinoceros unicornis) as Compared to Field Data of Free‐Ranging Specimens

open access: yesZoo Biology, Volume 45, Issue 1, Page 74-83, January/February 2026.
Female white rhinos in zoos systematically exceed the body mass range for free‐ranging specimens; this is not the case in black rhinos. ABSTRACT The body mass of zoo animals may differ from those in wild populations due to the different environmental and dietary conditions being offered under human‐managed care.

An evolutionary perspective on the response‐effect framework

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 298-310, February 2026.
Abstract The response‐effect framework (REF) has provided a foundational approach in functional ecology, using traits to predict how species respond to environmental factors (‘response traits’) and influence ecosystem functioning (‘effect traits’).
