India's Eocene rainforests, preserved in amber, offer a vivid window into how intricate ecological webs sustained biodiversity through past climate shifts, providing crucial insights for our warming world.

A comprehensive study was conducted between 2022 and 2025 across the majestic Kishtwar Himalayas, under the nationwide Snow Leopard Population Assessment in India (SPAI) protocol found snow leopards are not only present year-round but are also actively breeding.

Despite all our technological advances, we depend entirely on a healthy and vibrant ecosystem for our water, food, shelter, and energy. Respecting, protecting, and repairing our biological wealth is essential to ensure a habitable ecosystem.

This International Day for Biological Diversity, the theme, Harmony with nature and sustainable development, connects protecting biodiversity with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), showing that both agendas must advance together as they support one another.

Researchers undertook a comprehensive snow leopard survey covering 59,000 square kilometres of Ladakh's terrain using camera traps and field surveys.

Researchers have discovered two new species of dragonflies from the Western Ghat - Merogomphus aryanadensis from Kerala and Merogomphus flavoreductus from Maharashtra.

Researchers and biodiversity experts have discovered a new species of dragonfly, Burmagomphus chaukulensis, from near a stream in the Western Ghats in Maharashtra.

Researchers from ATREE review their work over the past 25 years.

As winter sets in over Punjab, one can hear the humdrum of hundreds of machines harvesting rice across lakhs of hectares of paddy fields. In Maharashtra, villages in Vidarbha lug their snowy cotton harvest to the market. Years ago, these landscapes were a sprawling array of forests, grasslands, wetlands and multiple crops cultivated on a shifting basis.

Over 8.7 million species are known to be found on Earth today, and many scientists believe that we have only scratched the surface.
