In-Lieu Fee programs are an important mechanism for compensatory mitigation in the United States and received wide-spread standardization after the regulatory mitigation rule change of 2008. On public lands, they are especially important for pooling...
Stingless bees, particularly Tetragonula pagdeni, are vital for both ecosystems and the economy due to their pollination services and nest products. However, little is known about their nesting habits. This study investigated the nesting ecology of T...
Environmental and ancient DNA are mostly present in degraded forms in nature. Plant forensics is necessary for plants like Taxus (Taxaceae), which is a medicinal, as well as poisonous, endangered plant. We designed a study to develop high-efficiency...
Small areas of flowering plants within urban landscapes can provide much-needed nutrition, shelter, and host plants for pollinating insects and other wildlife. To create such floral displays in gardens, shared spaces, and derelict properties, the use...
In Aso Kujyu National Park, grassland landscapes are being conserved through volunteer activities to support controlled burns of fields, and the current status of grasslands is being assessed through surveys of natural resources. In discussing the co...
Fire and invasive plant species interactions are critical drivers of biodiversity loss and ecological change in grassland ecosystems worldwide. However, research efforts on this topic are often fragmented, regionally based, and lack synthesis across...
A self-sustaining population of birdfoot violet (Viola pedata), a host plant for the threatened western subspecies of regal fritillary butterfly (Argynnis idalia occidentalis) caterpillar, was examined during a single year from April to June 2021 on...
Understanding wild bee diversity is critical for pollinator conservation, particularly in understudied tropical regions like coastal Ecuador. This preliminary study provides a photography-based assessment of bee diversity at Finca Botánica, an...
Given the endangered status and very limited distribution of Barbarea vulgaris R.Br. subsp. lepuznica (Nyár.) Soó in stressful, high-elevation habitats, where these plants must prioritise the resource acquisition and vegetative growth t...
Climate change is increasingly altering ecosystems around the world and threatening biodiversity, especially species with narrow distribution ranges and a dependency on dedicated conservation practices. In Saskatchewan, Canada, the ecological signifi...
