Ecology and sustainability are increasingly approached as a coupled socio-ecological agenda for balancing human needs, ecosystem integrity, and long-term resilience within ecological limits Rapid climate risks, accelerat...

Understanding the knowledge, attitudes and perceptions of the local communities towards the target species before implementing any awareness-based programmes is essential for the success and long-term protection of the s...

We conducted a study on the habitat use, food, and feeding ecology of the lesser known Tamdil Leaf-litter Frog Leptobrachella tamdil at its type locality. The places occupied by L. tamdil in the wild are characterised by...

This study assessed the local and landscape factors that support breeding habitats for native frog species in Jakarta, the capital city of Indonesia. We surveyed 25 wetlands categorized into two management states and var...

The genus Arachniodes (Dryopteridaceae) is mainly distributed in tropical Asia, with Indian records largely confined to the Himalaya, northeastern India, and southern Western Ghats. No confirmed report existed from the n...

Climate change and biodiversity loss have heightened global awareness on environmental design, unfolding paradigms of ecological design. Concepts such as nature-based solutions, urban nature, biophilic design and sponge ...

Identifying the prey species is crucial for successful conservation and landscape-level management of large predators whose feeding ecology is incompletely known. Assessment of faecal samples is a viable method for achie...

Monitoring the body condition of ungulates is an important aspect of understanding their ecology as it provides information about habitat conditions, seasonality of nutritional stress, disease susceptibility, and prey se...

Sacred groves (SGs) are community-protected forest patches dedicated to local deities, crucial for biodiversity conservation but threatened by habitat loss and weakening traditions. This study provides the first inventor...

With their ground-nesting habits, the Red-wattled Lapwing Vanellus indicus are particularly vulnerable to urbanization, which ffects their nesting behaviour, reproductive success, and habitat use. The present study was...

Forest fragmentation poses a critical threat to ecosystem service functionality, particularly in rapidly urbanizing regions. This study investigates the spatio-temporal dynamics of forest fragmentation and its impacts on...

Despite their charismatic appeal and threatened conservation status, parrots of the genera Tanygnathus and Prioniturus remain poorly studied throughout their range. Their inconspicuous behaviour, elusive nature, and rari...

Understanding the spatial ecology of wide-ranging marine megafauna is essential for identifying critical habitats and designing effective conservation strategies. Whale sharks undertake extensive movements far beyond wel...

The plant species Impatiens chamchumroonii of the Balsaminaceae family was recorded for the first time in Vietnam. They are collected from Dak Lak province hill areas in 2023. The voucher specimens of this species are ho...

Abstract Intertidal macrobenthos are vital bioindicators of coastal ecosystem health due to their ecological roles, limited mobility, and sensitivity to environmental disturbances. However, traditional field‐based moni...

The relevance of the research is explained by the contradiction between the availability of forest resources, the demand for timber materials, and the low economic efficiency of their use, conservation, and reproduction....

Abstract Obtaining accurate population measures of endangered species is critical for effective conservation and management actions and to evaluate their success over time. However, determining the population size and de...

Abstract Marine habitat maps are essential tools for marine spatial planning, providing information for decision‐making in conservation and resource management. Accurate classification of benthic habitats supports thei...

Abstract National‐scale benthic marine habitat maps underpin monitoring and conservation of vulnerable marine and coastal ecosystems. Cloud‐based satellite remote sensing can streamline these processes over spatial s...

The lichen diversity of the Similipal Biosphere Reserve in Odisha remains underexplored, particularly for fruticose lichens genus Cladonia P. Browne. The present study aims to document a specimen collected from the high-...

Abstract Assessing plant diversity using remote sensing, including airborne imaging spectroscopy, shows promise for large‐scale biodiversity monitoring in landscape restoration and conservation. Enriching plantations w...

Abstract Several ground‐nesting wader species rely on Baltic coastal meadows for breeding. Drastic reduction in the area of the habitat at the end of the 20th century has been followed by habitat restoration activities...

In studies on the reproduction and germination of species with indehiscent fruits containing a single seed, it is often assumed that all fruits that reach maturity contain a seed capable of generating a new plant. This i...
