🦋 How will #insects respond to #climatechange? A global review of 351 studies shows no consistent pattern. Some species expand, others shrink, partly due to varied #methodologies. Standardised approaches are crucial to predict future insect ranges. 🌐 🔗 https://t.co/gUNszKA7w8

By analysing 36 yrs of distribution data of German ground beetles, we show: - ~80% have declined, with significant declines for >50% of species. - Decline was similar across species traits and threat status. @idiv @Monash_Science @consbiog @MonashBiol https://t.co/Ps6P6yIl7B

In our new article (Midolo et al., Ecology Letters), we show that plant species richness in European plant communities generally decreased between the 1960s and 1980s. However, since the 1990s, this trend seems to have stopped or even reversed. https://t.co/ieQk0M6RCh

🐞 Over 36 years of data reveal alarming declines in German #groundbeetles: 52% of species decreased in #occupancy, including many key #predators vital for #ecosystem balance. 🚨This new study calls for urgent, coordinated #insects monitoring. 🔗 https://t.co/XyX444BzJ3

Rodolfo Anderson and David Chapple find that Protected Areas mitigate the effects of heat stress in ectotherms, particularly in tropical regions. https://t.co/Q19cMZ7dPP...

Our new study reports epicotyl physiological dormancy in Quercus sagrana—the only Caribbean oak. Its acorns germinate fast but delay shoot emergence, showing how tropical oaks adapt to dry seasons. https://t.co/hWocyKqSo0 #SeedEcology #Quercus #Fagaceae

Congrats @LangguthAnna on your first paper from your PhD! She was able to grow fibroblast cells from bat wings 🦇 using more field-friendly techniques that will help us better understand disease dynamics without infecting bats directly! https://t.co/wbQ3BqM5Ng

🌿 In this episode of #InsideBiodiversity, @sMarten_Winter unpacks the curious logic behind how scientists classify species — and the consequences that follow. 🌍 What does “non-native” really mean in a world shaped by movement? 🎧 Listen in:  https://t.co/4JO2dkoyW9
