Jared Diamond puts the case that geography and biogeography, not race, moulded the contrasting fates of Europeans, Asians, Native Americans, sub-Saharan Africans, and First Nations Peoples in 'Australia'.

A balance between environmental filtering and competitive exclusion modulates the macroecology of alternative stable states in microbial communities https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.64898/2025.12.19.695337v1

[1/2] Les + longues migrations animales révèlent une forte connexion des écosystèmes mondiaux. La sterne arctique parcourt jusqu’à 96.000 km/an entre Arctique et Antarctique. Sur une vie de 30 ans, elle peut parcourir l’équivalent de 3 allers-retours Terre-Lune. #biogeography #animal #migrations

Interested in the biogeography of lizards?🦎 We studied the historical biogeography of Sceloporus lizards and the link between their dispersal and climatic niches 🌎🌦️ @fabrovillalobos.bsky.social @ndimhypervol.bsky.social @biojlinnsoc.bsky.social Learn more here 👇: academic.oup.com/biolinnean/a...

Classic macroecological laws-long held as signatures of biological systems-also emerge in economic and geological systems. The real signal lies not in the static universal patterns, but in how those patterns shift with scale 🌐🧪 #scaling #macroecology journals.plos.org/plosone/arti...

New paper in @funecology.bsky.social led by @felixpleiva.bsky.social. We present ShareTrait, a community-driven platform for standardising & sharing individual-level trait data in ectotherms to improve data reuse across studies. 🔗 doi.org/10.1111/1365... #OpenScience #FAIRdata

One more step towards more insightful analyses in Evolutionary Macroecology. Thanks @fabrovillalobos.bsky.social and all coauthors still not blueskylized for the collaborative endeavor! SBEARS - A site-based method to estimate ancestral ranges of species url: academic.oup.com/evolut/artic...

I've wanted to write this article for years. About my and other's struggles to even survive sometime in #academia. Thank you to the amazing editors at @plosbiology.org that gave me the forum to write this piece. #science

Congratulations to lab member Gabi Alves Ferreira who lead us in this fun project! She modeled how range shifts of neotropical frogs with climate change will change phylogenetic diversity and endemism in the new communities. So great to see this published #ProudPI 💪🐸 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Scientists, it’s been a rough week. And honestly, we don’t lift each other up enough—especially when it comes to mental health. Our careers are built on repetitive rejection of papers, grants, and jobs. That doesn’t define you. You and your science are incredible. Just wanted to remind you of that.

Where do species come from? where and when did they meet and exchange genes? find it out with our new R tool for historical biogeography, RRphylogeography is published: doi.org/10.1111/2041...

Dufresnes et al. 2025 used integrative taxonomy and biogeography to reveal a new taxon of amphibian in Europe: a new subspecies of Bombina variegata in the Rhodope mountains. vertebrate-zoology.arphahub.com/article/1386... #amphibians #bombina #herpetology

This paper was a long time coming! Exploring the interaction between two convergent lizards who evolved separately on different Caribbean islands and were introduced to south Florida. Read all about how character displacement could play out in real time in the wild! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Do you need a salamander phylogeny? You're in luck! We put together the largest salamander phylogeny to date based on molecular markers and used more fossil calibrations than any other currently available trees. 765 salamander species! Check it out! www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
