  1. #Natural #Renaturation can take many forms in #Berlin, for in few other #majorcities do #abandoned #places and #vibranthubs of activity lie side by side. Therefore, #ruins, #waste, and #urban #biodiversity can exist in close #proximity, as is the case near historical but #repurposed #ruins like the RAW site in Berlin-#Friedrichshain.

  2. The greater #celandine #Chelidonium #majus (#Papaveraceae) is native to Eurasia and is sometimes treated as a weed. However, it possesses significant #pharmaceutical properties due to the #alkaloids it contains, making it of interest for basic research. Consequently, T.E. Samatadze et al. (2020) have #characterized it #agromorphologically, #microanatomically, and molecular-#cytogenetically.

  7. #Taraxacum #officinale (#Cichorieae) is native to Eurasia; it serves as a #pollensource for numerous insects and also is #indicatorplant for #calcium/#potassium. Its parts are relevant #foodsources. In their studies in Armenia B. Babayan et al. (2025) found concentrations of #heavymetals in the #soil leading to #DNApolymorphisms and thus being well-suited as a #bioindicator for #ecotoxicology.

  17. The greater #celandine (#Chelidonium #majus) prefers #nitrogenrich #soils and tends to be #thermophilic. In Germany, it grows in #parks and along roadsides. #Seeddispersal occurs via #myrmecochory; #ants are #attracted by means of a #lure (an #elaiosome). In the case of C. majus, this takes the form of a fleshy outgrowth (a #caruncle).

  22. #Geologically, the #Germancapital, #Berlin, is a remnant of a region situated near a #glacial #terminalmoraine. The #city's natural chains of #lakes date back to this era. However, even restored #artificial #bodiesofwater—such as the #Flughafensee, pictured below—adapt to the typical #wetlandecology characterized by thick layers of #sand.

  23. #Snail #Caracolus #sagemon (#Solaropsidae, #Sagdoidea, #Helicina, #Stylommatophora, #Gastropoda) is widespread in #Cuba and a popular terrarium inhabitant. It is predominantly nocturnal, primarily frugivorous, and—as a #terrestrialsnail—frequently exhibits a need to #bathe. I have documented a #mating encounter both through video and as #photoseries. Here two primary #bodypositions of both partners.

  43. The common #daisy, #Bellis #perennis (#Asteraceae), was originally native to the #Mediterranean region, Western Asia, and North Africa. It arrived in Central Europe through early human activity and is therefore named an #archaeophyte. A. Rathore et al. (2024) identified two #begomoviruses from it for the first time using PCR and full-length DNA analysis.

  48. The #microbial #diversity of #dynamic #ecosystems can today be assessed using more efficient methods. M. F. Peña-Valencia et al. (2026) identified potential #polyethyleneterephthalate (#PET)-degrading #enzymes from #mangrove #soil using #AI, #3D #structuralanalysis and #metagenomics. Some of these enzymes could be assigned to the bacterial genus #Microbulbifer.
