Our Bulletin's October cover star is a young Growling Grass Frog in Australia, captured during an "Ecological Applications" study that found that urbanization and disease can work together to drive amphibian declines

Our paper is out in Ecology @ecologicalsociety.bsky.social!

We found that an extreme drought year drove a local population of a social rodent to extinction. A sobering example of how climatic extremes can drive population collapse.

New "Ecology" cover alert! This aerial view captures researchers surveying Georgia’s granite outcrop pools, home to rare endemic species like snorkelwort. A recent study showed that repeat surveys are key for reliable detection

Designed to be Forgotten: Visual Anonymization in Ecological Publishing
Ehsan Moganaki

First published: 08 September 2026 | https://doi.org/10.1002/bes2.70102 |
Abstract 

For over three centuries, the visual identity of scientific journals served as a mark of institutional and disciplinary heritage. In recent years, however, an industry-wide consolidation of journal publishing has been accompanied by a convergence toward standardized, interchangeable layouts. I argue that the transition to homogeneous designs is not a technical inevitability but a production optimization, one that often subordinates reader engagement and disciplinary identity to production efficiency. Layout functions as an access structure, shaping how readers navigate and interpret the scientific record. Therefore, its impoverishment is a communicative loss, not merely an aesthetic one. I contend that ecology, a field defined by diversity at every scale, has particular reason to resist the visual anonymization of its journals and to treat layout as a meaningful dimension of scientific communication.

Not everything is dire after fire. Mother plant exposure to fire subsequently enhances the size and germination of seeds.
