DOI: 10.1002/ece3.11535
Abstract: Abstract Human‐induced environmental change has caused widespread loss of species that support important functions for ecosystems and society. For example, vertebrate scavengers contribute to the functional health of ecosystems and provide services to agricultural landscapes… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00442-021-04864-4
Abstract: To understand impacts of post-disturbance assembly mechanisms on the functional diversity (FD) of plant communities, it is necessary to determine how the environment drives their functional trait composition. In the boreal forest, post-fire abiotic filters… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11104-019-04000-5
Abstract: Background and aimsWhilst several studies have shown that edaphic variability influences species composition in nutrient-poor tropical forests, the determinants of local species distributions and, in particular, how these change from younger to mature individuals in… read more here.

Evolutionary history and interspecific gene flow in six Coenonympha butterfly species in Europe
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2025 at "Insect Conservation and Diversity"
DOI: 10.1111/icad.70005
Abstract: Recently diverged species often exhibit incomplete reproductive barriers, leading to potential hybridisation where their ranges overlap. Distinguishing the effects of past hybridisation and incomplete lineage sorting from contemporary secondary gene flow in species evolution remains… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/d15040508
Abstract: In nearly every ecological community, most species are represented by a few individuals, and most individuals come from a few of the most common species. Singletons (one individual sampled) and doubletons (two individuals sampled) are… read more here.
