We all know how painful it can be to plan a group trip with friends. Honeybees coordinate and execute migratory journeys involving thousands of individuals using their waggle dance behaviour. We explored this in detail 👇 @BEElab_iisertvm

⭐️New Pub!⭐️In our new #OpenAccess paper in @BritishEcolSoc@JEcology, we show that agricultural conversion & afforestation of old-growth savannas in India destroy & degrade native plant communities that do not spontaneously recover on fallowed land. https://t.co/gSqWEnonew 1/n
New Book! Want to know if that plant you like is having a negative impact on native biodiversity? Download our new book on the common invasive plants of peninsular India: https://t.co/INk3HMvXsW @BiodivCollab
📢 Happy to share our new paper in @JAppliedEcology on the status of plant invasions and restoration priorities in India. ‼️Around 66% natural areas in India are invaded‼️
