Anatomy of a mega-radiation: Biogeography & niche evolution in #Astragalus New #AJB research by Ryan Folk 🐕, Joseph Charboneau, Michael Belitz, Tajinder Singh, Heather Kates, Soltis Lab @UF, Robert Guralnick, Carolina Siniscalchi doi.org/10.1002/ajb2.1… #botany Wiley Plant Science


Cities have a heat problem which can have disastrous consequences for those trapped inside. A new study looks at moths, taking into account their complex life cycle, and how they fare in human-developed environments. Study doi.org/10.1111/gcb.17… Story floridamuseum.ufl.edu/science/moths-… 📉

Check out this amazing online course iThink Biology .. Very lucky to be a part of it and learn as well from Dr. Abha Rao..please RT and promote the course

Have you applied to the GBIF @biodiversity.social/@gbif Graduate Researchers Award yet? You should! You could randomly run into these folks almost anywhere on the planet! Pics taken 3 years apart. ✨



It's still bare bones, but I've made a website for my forthcoming lab Florida Museum (2025)! vmshirey.github.io/shireyLab/ If you've been dreaming of butterfly ecology and conservation and are interested in a GRFP/PRFB, I'll be at #ESA2024 in 2 weeks and would love to chat! 🦋






I can't resist a spoiler of almost finished work✨ I spent the weekend mining U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Endangered Species Act documentation to summarize threat prevalence to invertebrates across North America. The story is quite different across aquatic/terrestrial domains as one might expect!
