The genus Nycteola Hübner has been mainly distributed in the Old World and usually feeds on Fagaceae and Salicaceae, but Myrtaceae and Juglandaceae have also been reported. In Korea, the number of this genus has been changed from four to three after 2007, but three or four species are listed confusingly up to now. The Japanese endemic species Nycteola dufayi Sugi, 1982 are firstly reported for the Continents with its brief biology. Additionally, Korean fauna of nycteolid species are reviewed.

The long-term monitoring of the plant cover of Doñana shrublands is part of a harmonised protocol for the Long-term Ecological Monitoring Programme of Natural Resources and Processes targeting Terrestrial Vegetation. The general aim of this protocol is to monitor and assess the dynamics and trends of shrubland plant communities in Doñana. For shrublands, percentage cover is recorded annually, starting in 2008, by the Doñana Long-Term Monitoring Team in one field sampling campaign per year during the flowering season (between March and May) across 21 permanent square plots (15 m x 15 m). Permanent plots were located according to stratified random sampling according to the topographic gradient defining the main shrubland species dominance in the Doñana Biological Reserve. Cover is measured using the line intercept method in three transects inside the plots of 15 m length, orientated from west to east and located at fixed points of 2.5, 7.5 and 12.5 metres on both sides of the plot. Using the line-intercept method, the coverage of each species per individual is measured with a measuring tape, recording its class age (adult or seedling) and canopy status (green or dry) as a living or dead specimen. The average plant height is recorded for every transect. This method enables the calculation of the total percentage cover per species and plant density for transects and plots, as well as the total percentage cover per class age and the total percentage cover of dry and green canopies and bare soil. The annual species richness and diversity of woody plants can also be calculated for every plot. This paper presents the latest published version of the standardised dataset of percent cover per woody plant species of Doñana long-term monitoring plots available at GBIF.org.

Cumaceans mostly inhabit marine environments, where they play a crucial role in marine food webs and actively participate in the transfer between benthic and pelagic systems. Scientific interest in these crustaceans has been increasing, but is limited to certain geographic areas, which do not include extreme environments such as hydrothermal vents. Therefore, this study aimed to report the distribution of cumaceans in shallow-water hydrothermal vents at Banderas Bay and to identify the specimens present. Three sites were selected (20°44’54.7”N, 105°28’40.6”W; 20°44’54.8”N, 105°28’40.4”W; 20°44’54.9”N, 105°28’38.4”W) and each site was divided into three zones, based on sediment temperature. Through SCUBA diving, 27 sediment cores were collected. The samples were processed and identified in the laboratory. The families Bodotriidae T. Scott, 1901; Pseudocumatidae Sars, 1878; and Diastylidae Bate, 1856; were recorded and six morphospecies were identified. This work leaves a preliminary frame of reference for future studies related to the biodiversity of cumacean in Hydrothermal vents environments.

The univoltine leaf beetle Phyllotreta ochripes (Curtis, 1837b) is native to the Palaearctic Region from Japan to western Europe. This species was previously evaluated as a potential biological control agent against invasive populations of the woodland weed Alliaria petiolata (Bieb.) Cavara &amp; Grande (Brassicaceae) in North America, but rejected because it could harm native and at-risk populations of Brassicaceae. First North American records are presented for Phyllotreta ochripes (Curtis, 1837). Specimens were examined from the USA: Illinois, Maryland, Michigan, Ohio and Pennsylvania. Internet photographs of apparent additional individuals from USA: Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Wisconsin and Canada: Ontario were also examined. DNA barcoding analysis showed high genetic variability and possible cryptic species within European populations of P. ochripes . Diagnostic information is presented to distinguish P. ochripes . from other North American Chrysomelidae and a species distribution model to assess its potential spread in North America is presented. Phyllotreta ochripes breeds on invasive garlic mustard, Alliaria petiolata (Bieb.) Cavara &amp; Grande (Brassicaceae) and also non-native Rorippa amphibia (L.) Besser and other species of Brassicaceae. A species distribution model and the range of its host plant A. petiolata , indicates the most suitable conditions for this species are in humid areas of eastern North America. However, most of the known records of this species were discovered in areas projected to have low suitability. This is likely a consequence of sampling bias towards western Europe and away from the eastern Asian portion of its native range. The United States of America and Canada are now known to be home to 72 or more species of adventive Chrysomelidae.

The coastal habitats in the southern Gulf of Mexico face multiple threats, such as rising water temperatures, acidification, increased turbidity, invasive species and pollutants. This imperils the biodiversity of beaches, wetlands and coral reefs. To address this, there is a need for comprehensive baseline information on marine biodiversity. Several reefs in the Gulf of Mexico have been extensively studied, yet smaller reefs on the Yucatan continental shelf lack thorough exploration despite their ecological significance. These reefs serve as crucial biodiversity hotspots influenced by environmental characteristics, receiving diverse taxa from the Gulf of Mexico. The macroalgae study at the Bank of Campeche dates back to the 1950s, but comprehensive investigations have been sporadic. The recent study aims to fill this gap, contributing to the taxonomic inventory of the area's benthic macroflora. Methodologically, extensive sampling across eight reefs was conducted, collecting and preserving macroalgae samples for identification in the laboratory. The study documented 90 infrageneric taxa across the reefs, with Cayo Arenas exhibiting the highest species count. Additionally, three new distribution reports for Mexico were identified in the region. The distribution of species varied amongst locations, with few species in common even amongst geographically proximate reefs. The diversity found in these reefs slightly trails behind other studied regions, but surpasses previous reports for the Campeche Bank. It is important to emphasise that the significance of this study lies in its focus on remote reefs with complicated and costly access logistics. Additionally, it is one of the first publicly available datasets published for this region. The study aligns with existing literature on prevalent families in reef environments and highlights differences in species distribution, based on depth variations amongst reefs. The findings of new distribution records in the region and the distinctiveness of localities despite their proximity underscore the unique ecological dynamics of these reefs. These reefs are located in remote and difficult-to-access areas, highlighting the importance of the data obtained on their biodiversity and conservation status. This work presents for the first time a list of macroalgae for the reefs of Banco Nuevo, Banco Obispo, Banco Pera and Serpientes Reef. Three new distribution reports for Yucatan were identified at the Banco Obispo reef: Botryocladia shanksii E. Y. Dawson, Ceratodictyon scoparium (Montagne &amp; Millardet) R. E. Norris and Asteromenia peltata (W. R. Taylor) Huisman &amp; Millar and a new report for the Mexican Atlantic, Herposiphonia parca Setchell at the Triángulo Oeste reef. This results in distinct algal communities compared to other reefs in the region, emphasising their ecological significance and the need for continued research and conservation efforts. To our knowledge, this is one of the first interoperable datasets being published on the marine algae of the southern Gulf of Mexico reef ecosystems.

Earthworms are one of the most important components of temperate ecosystems and groups of soil animals globally, but data on their distribution around the world are still incomplete and uneven. Northern Eurasia is a region for which available data on earthworm distribution is extremely poor. At the same time, generations of Soviet and Russian researchers have performed extensive research and accumulated a large amount of data on the distribution of earthworms in this vast region. Most of this information was published in Russian, not digitised and, therefore, hardly accessible to researchers. Our dataset fills this gap and provides occurrence data extracted from 159 literature sources in Russian published between 1868 and 2022. The dataset contains 5,304 occurrences of 109 species and 14 subspecies. The collected data cover the territory of 27 countries. The dataset extends the data available through GBIF.org on earthworm distribution in Russia, Belarus, and Ukraine. For Transcaucasia and Central Asia countries, our resource has become the main GBIF source on earthworm diversity distribution. On a global scale, our dataset contributes to filling gaps in biodiversity, which facilitates more accurate estimates of the response of biodiversity to global climate change as well as the spreading of invasive species.

Understanding how abiotic factors influence Bornean tropical tree communities and diversity is a key aspect in elucidating the mechanisms of species co-existence and habitat preferences in these biodiverse forests. We focused on investigating forest structure, tree diversity and community composition of lowland Bornean heath forests in Brunei Darussalam, within two 0.96 ha permanent forest plots at Bukit Sawat Forest Reserve and Badas Forest Reserve. All trees with stem diameter ≥ 5 cm were tagged, identified and measured for their stem diameter and basal area. Soil physiochemical properties (pH, gravimetric water content and concentrations of total carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium and magnesium in topsoil) and environmental factors (relative humidity, canopy openness, litter depth and topographic variables of elevation, slope and aspect) were quantified as potential drivers of tree community differences. A total of 2,368 trees were recorded, representing 229 tree species in 211 genera and 58 families. Significant between-site differences in forest structure and tree community compositions were detected, despite limited differences in environmental and soil properties. Tree community composition at Bukit Sawat appeared to be influenced by topographic variables, while those at Badas were influenced by canopy openness. Our results showed that small-scale soil and environmental variation appeared to shape the local tree communities at Bukit Sawat and Badas. We recorded numerous Bornean endemic and tree species of high conservation values. We thus highlight the necessity of conducting long-term research on the forest dynamics of Bornean heath forests to effectively manage these high conservation value habitats which are currently experiencing changes driven by disturbances.
