    Potential Geographic Distributions of Ceiba Pentandra Under Current and Future Climate Conditions in Benin, West Africa

    World Journal of Forest Research

    The 21st century is marked by growing losses of biodiversity particularly in tropical regions. These losses result not only from direct anthropogenic effects but also from climate change; research must therefore consider impacts of climate change on future potential distributions of species. Ceiba p…

    Challenges, drivers and strategies for improving natural regeneration of African oak (Afzelia africana Sm)

    Forest Ecology and Management

    African Oak (Afzelia africana Sm. ex Pers.) is a keystone species with high socio-economic importance for local populations in tropical Africa. Yet, the long-term survival of the species in its natural habitats is uncertain given a lack of natural regeneration. Although substantial research has been…

    Top priority crop wild relatives exhibit different resilience responses to climate change in Benin (West Africa)

    Journal for Nature Conservation

    Climate change exacerbates biodiversity loss and contributes to disrupting ecosystem functioning, diminishing ecosystem services, and further endangering vulnerable populations of species. This study explores how different climate scenarios may impede the probable resilience of top-priority crop wil…

    The 2030 Declaration on Scientific Plant and Fungal Collecting

    PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET

    Almost all life depends on plants and fungi, making knowledge of their diversity and distribution—primarily derived from biological collections—fundamental to national and international conservation, restoration and sustainable use commitments. However, it is estimated that some 15% of all plant spe…

    When One Global Invasion Hides Another—Cryptic Interspecific Invasion in Freshwater Gastropods

    Diversity and Distributions

    ABSTRACTAimCryptic invasions are an understudied phenomenon among species invasions, especially in freshwater invertebrates. We study the gastropod family Physidae, including the global invaders Physella acuta and several enigmatic Stenophysa species, their phylogenetic relationships and the presenc…

    Trees, Forests and People

    The global decline of biodiversity threatens ecosystem stability and human well-being. This study modeled the future suitable habitats of twelve key multipurpose tree species (MPTS) in Benin under two climate scenarios, Shared Socioeconomic Pathways 245 (SSP245) and 585 (SSP585), based on a 2070 hor…
