I am excited to share our latest paper just published in NatureEcoEvo: 'Effects of urban-induced mutations on ecology, evolution and health' nature.com/articles/s4155….

🌿🏔️ Yi Liu delivered a fascinating talk at #EGU on how regional #tectonics influence plant #biodiversity in the Colombian #Andes .

Please help solve a botanical mystery--who is this #botanist and what plant is he holding? This #portrait is held by AMAM Oberlin College, and was apparently painted in 1629. Really hoping the greater botanical #taxonomy community can help, so please repost!

Beyond thrilled to share the new Urban Wildlife Information Network paper out today in PNASNews where we show that gentrification drives patterns of wildlife diversity in cities. #urbanecology #cameratrapping #mammals 🧵1/14

Your kindness can kill a bumblebee 💔

📢 Please share! Bumblebee queens are starting to emerge from hibernation. British weather isn’t always ideal and people with the best intentions can cause more harm good. Let’s change that.

In our new paper, we combine Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) and legacy data to reconstruct the evolutionary history of the Accipitridae (hawks and eagles). We propose revisions to the genus-rank taxonomy, describe a new subfamily, and 3 new tribes, and split up Accipiter!

Our latest paper by University of Toronto EEB
PhD student Ella Martin & undergrad Samer El-Galmady shows that socioeconomic variation across a city (Toronto) unexpectedly alters the ecology & evolution of predator-prey interactions. @drake thanks for letting us use your place! Ecology Letters

#BeeBDC version 1.1.0 is now live on #CRAN with an important new function that allows users to download taxonomies for ANY TAXA that's available through the #taxadb package!

So excited for #TaxonomistAppreciationDay this year (well, let's be honest - we get excited every year)!

2023 saw some amazing #newspecies published and we are excited that the top five entries in Pensoft's Top 10 list are all ZooKeys discoveries!

Today is Taxonomist Appreciation Day! 🌿

To celebrate, one of our taxonomists Gwil Lewis gives you an insight into what a taxonomist does and how they help protect our natural world 🌍👇

#TaxonomistAppreciationDay

I'm reposting this because the message remains important and timely.

Calling all #botanists ! It's #Taxonomist Appreciation Day and we would like to recognise the invaluable contributions made by taxonomists around the world. 🌎🌲🌻

Thank you for your hard work! 🌱
