Where traditional extinction estimates fall flat: using novel cophylogenetic methods to estimate extinction risk in platyhelminths

Laura P. A. Mulvey et al.

Summary: Parasites play a major role in shaping community structure and their extinction could have massive cascading effects across ecosystems. Estimating their extinction risk is crucial, and we propose a novel metric that incorporates the evolutionary history of parasites and hosts using cophylogenetic methods. By analyzing polystome parasites and their anuran hosts, we show that different methods have a significant impact on extinction risk estimation and that model-based approaches offer greater insights into cophylogenetic history and extinction risk.

Host diversity outperforms climate as a global driver of symbiont diversity in the bird-feather mite system

Reginaldo A. F. Gusmao et al.

Summary: The global diversity of feather mites is primarily influenced by both biotic and to a lesser extent abiotic factors, with bird species richness playing a significant role. Biotic factors are more important in tropical regions compared to temperate regions, while climatic variables have a relatively smaller impact on mite species richness at a global scale.

Morphological traits of reef corals predict extinction risk but not conservation status

Nussaiebah B. Raja et al.

Summary: The study aimed to quantitatively assess the link between reef coral traits and species extinction risk using fossil records. Results showed that morphological traits of fossil corals are related to their extinction risk, suggesting the importance of considering the relationship between morphology and resilience in future extinction risk assessments. The model developed for predicting extinction risk of modern corals based on fossil data indicated discrepancies with the IUCN assessment, highlighting the potential for using fossil data to inform the extinction risk of modern corals.
