Oikos

Oikos Oikos publishes research papers where different aspects (e.g. Papers in the Forum section is given priority in the publication process.

methodological, disciplinary, taxonomical or geographical) of ecology are brought together to create novel insights. Oikos is a journal issued by the Nordic Ecological Society and is one of the leading peer-reviewed journals in ecology. Oikos publishes original and innovative research on all aspects of ecology, defined as organism-environment interactions. Emphasis is on theoretical and empirical

work aimed at generalization and synthesis across taxa, systems and ecological disciplines. Papers can contribute to new developments in ecology by reporting novel theory or critical empirical results, and "synthesis" can include developing new theory, tests of general hypotheses, or bringing together established or emerging areas of ecology. Confirming or extending the established literature, by for example showing results that are novel for a new taxon, is given low priority. We publish standard papers and short papers in the Forum section that aim to stimulate discussion by promoting ideas and synthesis of high novelty. Forum papers should strive for novelty, conceptual unification and serve as a point of departure for future work rather than retrospective summaries of established fields or topics.

Greeting us all the way from Costa Rica, this magnificent hummingbird, adorned with its vibrant colors, graces the cover of April's issue!

When evaluating the phylogenetic relatedness among plants, all hummingbird species and most insects had overdispersed diets and visited plants with great variation in corolla length.

February's cover brings us a field of white clovers aka a bit of hope for the spring to come for us in the Northern Hemisphere! From the study "Urban spatial heterogeneity shapes the evolution of an antiherbivore defense trait and its genes in white clove" by Ishiguro et al. (2023).
