Contreras R.A., Pizarro M., Zamora P. & Zúñiga G.E. (2025): Phytochemistry of crustose lichens from Mount Rossman, Ellsworth Land, Antarctica, Phytochemistry Letters, 70: 104063 [7 p.]

Lichens are symbiotic organisms that inhabit all climate zones of this planet, including even those in Antarctica, thanks to their sophisticated biochemical machinery. This study investigated the phytochemical composition of three lichen species (Pleopsidium sp., Sarcogyne sp., and Rusavskia sp.) collected from Mount Rossman, Antarctica. We used liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) to putatively assign key secondary metabolites, including anthraquinones and various … Read more...

Melekhina E.N., Selivanova N.P. & Korolev A.N. (2025): Oribatid mites (Oribatida) associated with nests of open-nesting birds of the genus thrush (Turdus) in the taiga forests of the European North-East of Russia, Diversity, 17(10): 735 []

For the first time, studies have been conducted aiming at the diversity of the oribatid mites (Oribatida) that inhabit the nests of open-nesting birds of the genus thrushes (Turdus), particularly fieldfare (T. pilaris Linnaeus, 1758) and redwing (T. iliacus Linnaeus, 1766), in the taiga forests of the European north-east. Long-term observations were carried out in the green belt of the city of Syktyvkar (N 61°40′ E 50°50′) in 2021–2025. Among 168 studied thrush nests (fieldfare—138, redwing—30), … Read more...

Kantnerová V. & Škaloud P. (2025): The diverse world within: age-dependent photobiont diversity in the lichen Protoparmeliopsis muralis, FEMS Microbiology Ecology, 101(11): fiaf096 [15 p.]

Understanding the initial formation and development of lichens is crucial for elucidating the mechanisms behind the formation of complex lichen thalli and their maintenance in long-term symbioses. These symbiotic relationships provide significant ecological advantages for both partners, expanding their ecological niches and allowing them, in many cases, to overcome extreme environmental conditions. The correct development of thalli likely relies on the selection of suitable photobionts from the environment. … Read more...

Timoshok E.E. & Timoshok E.N. (2025): Primary vegetation successions at a foreland of the South Chuya glacation [sic!] center (Altai Mountains), Contemporary Problems of Ecology, 18: 723–733

[Translation of original Russian text published in Sibirskii Ekologicheskii Zhurnal, 2025, No. 5, pp. 762–774.] In the cryoaridic conditions of the South Chuya glaciation center (Altai Mountains) on the foreland of the Sophiysky glacier (2410–2500 m above sea level), primary vegetation successions have been studied from the settlement of the first vascular plants, leafy mosses, and ground lichens and the formation of simple groupings to primary plant communities in a deglaciated area between … Read more...

[translation of original Russian text published in Sibirskii Ekologicheskii Zhurnal, 2025, No. 5, pp. 747–761] Based on a comparative analysis of 711 relevés and field surveys, the authors compiled a scale of dynamic states of psammophylous grass vegetation in the Southern Nechernozemye of Russia. The following main criteria were chosen for their selection: the area of the total projective cover in communities, the presence of renewal of tree species (Pinus sylvestris and Betula pendula) and … Read more...

Kaae M.E., Bak J.L. & Damgaard C.F. (2025): Effects of long-term exposure to ammonia from animal farms on the dry and dune heath vegetation: Lessons from a gradient study, Water, Air, and Soil Pollution, 236: 1006 [20 p.]

In this gradient study, we examined the effects of ammonia deposition on vegetation in two different heathland habitats, a dry and dune heath (Annex I code: 4030 & 2140, respectively). During the summer of 2020, we conducted a vegetation survey and soil sampling along a transect at each heathland with increasing distance to a farm unit(s). At the dry heath, the transect length was ~ 1420 m; at the dune heath, the transect length was ~ 580 m. The dry heath site was mainly in the downwind or … Read more...

The article presents an assessment of roadside soil and plant pollution by motor vehicles in the Arctic zone of Western Siberia. The studies were conducted on the Surgut-Salekhard highway near Novy Urengoy and on one of the winter roads south of the town of Tazovsky. A detailed geochemical characteristic of the parent rocks and soils in the study areas is provided. Chemical pollution was mild, since northern roads usually have low to medium traffic intensity. Statistical modeling based on the … Read more...

The Philippines is home to a diverse range of fungal species, yet comprehensive taxonomic assessments remain limited. This study provides an overview of novel Ascomycota species introduced in the Philippines through an extensive review of published records from Index Fungorum, MycoBank, and the Fungal Names databases. A total of 1,698 species within the phylum Ascomycota have been documented, spanning 564 genera, 170 families, 66 orders, and nine classes. This compilation provides valuable insights … Read more...
