- Reposted by César Morales del MolinoElucidating mutual relationships between bees and plants in biodiversity hotspots is a challenge that requires the joint efforts of ecologists and taxonomists.In this new paper we analyse community-wide relationships between plants and Andrena bees in the Cazorla mountains and describe 3 new species

- Reposted by César Morales del Molino- Too much pressure to publish. - More volume, less quality. - Predatory journals. - Crazy fees to publish your own work. - Too many low-quality papers. - Pre-prints masquerading as, peer reviewed. Academic publishing is broken. We need overhaul the system, focusing on quality not quantity.
- Despite we got some hail in spring when all these folks were blooming, the fleshy fruit yield so far looks excellent: Euonymus europaeus, Prunus spinosa, Rhamnus cathartica and Viburnum lantana.
- Y por último, una bonita y grandota abeja en un Cirsium, que no sé por dónde anda... ¿Alguna idea @cmhmaliani.bsky.social y/o @curromolina.bsky.social? Muchas gracias.
- Two more butterflies spotted this weekend: Limenitis reducta (on the trail) and Cynthia cardui on Mantisalca salmantica.
- Yesterday, I was also lucky enough to spot several beautiful butterflies like Argynnis paphia on Rubus gr. ulmifolius or Brenthis hecate on Prunella vulgaris.
- Hoy he tenido una mañana afortunada con la observación y fotografía de aves rupícolas por el Alto Tajuña: avión roquero (Ptynoprogne rupestris), roquero solitario (Monticola solitarius), buitre común (Gyps fulvus) y roquero rojo (Monticola saxatilis).

- Ruta ciclista visitando pueblos con encanto (siempre he sido un enamorado de los lavaderos, y éste con su impresionante fuente es una de mis paradas favoritas) y la zona afectada por el incendio del rodenal de 2005 (subida dura mediante :-P). La vegetación sigue recuperándose bien 20 años después.
