Climate-driven vegetation characteristics shape phytophagous and carnivorous insect diversity in South African savannahs

F. P. Gaona, S. Delabye, P. Potocky, V. Govorov, J. Cuda, L. C. Foxcroft, R. Garlacz, M. Hejda, S. MacFadyen, T. Pyrcz, K. Pyskova, O. Sedlacek, D. Storch, P. Pysek, R. Tropek

This study shows that plant communities drive insect diversity in South African savannahs, with climate and disturbances indirectly shaping these patterns through their effects on vegetation.

Effects of land-use change and related pressures on alien and native subsets of island communities

K. Sanchez-Ortiz, K. J. M. Taylor, A. De Palma, F. Essl, W. Dawson, H. Kreft, J. Pergl, P. Pysek, M. van Kleunen, P. Weigelt, A. Purvis

The paper examines how land-use change and human pressures affect native and alien species on islands, finding that native species decline while alien species increase in disturbed areas.

Disharmony of the world’s island floras

C. Koenig, P. Weigelt, A. Taylor, A. Stein, W. Dawson, F. Essl, J. Pergl, P. Pysek, M. van Kleunen, M. Winter, C. Chatelain, J. J. Wieringa, P. Krestov, H. Kreft

The paper quantitatively assesses island disharmony by analyzing 320 island floras and 450 plant families, finding compositional bias linked to island characteristics rather than family traits.
