Species distribution modeling is extensively used for predicting potential distributions of invasive species. However, an ensemble approach has been less frequently particularly pest The bird cherry-oat aphid Rhopalosiphum padi L. important wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) worldwide and causes 30% yield losses. Here, we developed a series models with multiple variables to predict the habitat suitability this at global scale. current suitable R. mainly distributed in East Asia, South Europe, southern North America, eastern Australia, New Zealand. highly regions are primarily east China, Japan, most southeastern edge Australia. In future scenarios, habitats will undergo significant contraction overall northward, no moderately nor predicted other areas.

ABSTRACT Behavioral and dietary flexibility allow primates to effectively exploit resources that fluctuate in time space. Here we examined monthly variation the diet activity budget of a wild nonprovisioned group Tibetan macaques inhabiting Mt. Huangshan, China. From October 2022 September 2023, recorded behavior collected data on food availability, temperature, rainfall, day length. We found over 12‐month period, fed 109 plant species. The main types consumed were fruits (54.5%), leaves (24.3%), seeds (7.7%), stems (6.5%), flowers (4.0%), buds (2.5%). target as resource during months which most abundant. During when scarce, they increased their consumption leaves, seeds, stems. top three species each month accounted for 70.7% total feeding indicating foraging effort focused small number highly productive month. macaque daily was dominated by (3.98 h or 33.7%) resting (3.81 32.8%), followed traveling (2.40 20.9%) socializing (1.45 12.6%).

Climate and land use directly influence species’ spatial distribution, which can alter distribution lead to significant changes in biodiversity patterns. There are few reports on how climate affect plant This study focuses Chinese endemic tree plants, analyzing the hotspots under current future conditions (2050 SSP1–2.6 SSP5–8.5 scenarios). Using data of plants China, Biomod2-integrated species model, “top 5% diversity” hotspot identification method, we examine richness (SR), functional diversity (FD), phylogenetic (PD). The results indicate that with use: (1) shifts occur patterns hotspots. Although number identified by different indices varies, fragmentation increases across all scenarios. (2) Hotspots tend concentrate low-latitude high-altitude regions. In scenarios, longitudinal position is significantly lower, their elevation higher compared scenario. (3) also change significantly. SR PD show similar trends Under conditions, highest values found eastern mountainous regions, such as Wuyi Mountains Nanling Mountains, while they shift central western areas like Qinling Hengduan Mountains.

Abstract In recent years, increased species extinction and habitat loss have significantly reduced biodiversity, posing a serious threat to both nature human survival. Environmental factors strongly influence bird distribution diversity. The potential patterns richness offer conservation modeling framework for policymakers assess the effectiveness of natural protected areas (PAs) optimize their existing ones. Very few such studies been published that cover large complete taxonomic group with fine resolution at regional scale. Here, using birds as study group, maximum entropy model (MaxEnt) was used analyze pattern in Jiangsu Province. Using an unparalleled amount occurrence data, we created models (SDMs) 312 explore emerging diversity 1 km 2 . gradient is steep, decreasing sharply away from water bodies, particularly northern part migratory status feeding habits also spatial avian richness.

The plum fruit moth, Grapholita funebrana Treitschke, is one of the most significant borer pests, often causing huge economic losses in production. However, potential distribution range this economically important pest still poorly understood. For study, we simulated an ensemble species model to predict spatiotemporal pattern G. at a global scale. results show that suitable habitats for under current environmental conditions, are mainly distributed Europe; East Asia, including China and Japan; Central Asia; some parts America. In future projections, predicted generally expand northward, while area will remain unchanged overall. highly habitat decrease only 17.49% found conditions.
