DOI: 10.1016/j.cub.2020.10.053
Abstract: Insects are the focus of many recent studies suggesting population declines, but even invaluable pollination service providers such as bees lack a modern distributional synthesis. Here, we combine a uniquely comprehensive checklist of bee species… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/gcb.13940
Abstract: Effective conservation of freshwater biodiversity requires spatially explicit investigations of how dams and hydroclimatic alterations among climate regions may interact to drive species to extinction. We investigated how dams and hydroclimatic alterations interact with species… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/geb.13349
Abstract: Aim: Previous studies have found strikingly different geographical patterns of phylogenetic diversity of gymnosperms and angiosperms, which have been suggested to result, in part, from the greater age of the former. To assess the effects… read more here.

DOI: 10.21425/f5fbg38754
Abstract: Author(s): Manish, Kumar | Abstract: The Himalaya started with mostly immigrant flora but is today home to about 3500–4000 endemic plants that have evolved within a time span of 40–50 million years. It is, however,… read more here.
