摘要

1963年,热带生物学和保护协会理事会设立了“长期为热带生物学做出杰出贡献的人士”荣誉院士选举制度。这是协会颁发的最高奖项。迄今为止,我们已经从20多个国家选出了100多名荣誉院士。今年,我们又表彰了两位杰出的荣誉院士,他们都因其奖学金和指导而得到广泛认可。我们谨代表荣誉院士提名委员会,颁发2025年荣誉院士Patricia Balvanera博士和Geraldo Fernandes Wilson博士。Patricia Balvanera(图1)是一位杰出的墨西哥生态学家,也是生态系统与可持续发展研究所(IIES-UNAM)的全职教授。她的工作将生物多样性科学、生态系统服务和可持续性联系起来,重点关注社会生态系统。她领导了关于生物多样性如何通过生态、文化和关系途径支撑人类福祉的开创性研究。Balvanera博士因其对全球评估(包括IPBES价值评估)的贡献而享誉国际,并担任《生态与社会》杂志的主编。她的科学成果包括160多篇同行评审的文章,被引用超过1.7万次。她积极领导和参与跨学科倡议,如Cocina协作,与农村社区,艺术家和学者共同创造可持续粮食系统。在区域和国家层面,她推动了生态和社会数据的整合,为保护和公平政策提供信息。在全球范围内,她为PECS和GEOBON等科学网络做出贡献,促进生物多样性监测和知识合作生产。通过她的学术领导、社区参与和编辑角色,Balvanera博士在塑造可持续发展科学的未来方面发挥着关键作用。杰拉尔多·威尔逊·阿方索·费尔南德斯(图2)是巴西著名的生态学家,也是米纳斯吉拉斯州联邦大学(UFMG)的全职教授,他拥有北亚利桑那大学的生物学基础学位(1983年获得学士学位)和生态学高级学位(1987年获得硕士学位;1992年获得博士学位)。他的研究跨越四十年,主要集中在昆虫与植物的相互作用,形成瘿的昆虫,食草,气候变化,生物多样性和恢复生态学。费尔南德斯撰写了数百篇同行评议的文章,指导了数十名研究生,并在斯坦福大学(作为Tinker教授)、阿尔伯塔大学和塞维利亚大学等机构担任著名的访问职位。他也是巴西科学院的正式成员和CNPq研究员1A。费尔南德斯博士致力于巴西生物群落的长期生态研究,如campo rupestre, Cerrado和Caatinga,他研究了跨越海拔和环境梯度的生态模式。他在生物多样性监测、环境恢复和生态系统服务方面的研究将理论与应用生态学相结合,研究网络横跨拉丁美洲、北美和欧洲。作为国家生物多样性和长期环境监测项目的协调员,他继续在巴西和其他国家制定生态科学和保护政策。作者声明无利益冲突。

2025 ATBC Honorary Fellows

2025 ATBC Honorary Fellows

In 1963, the Council of the Association for Tropical Biology and Conservation established the election of Honorary Fellows as “persons of long distinguished service to tropical biology.” This is the highest award given by the Association. To date, we have selected more than 100 Honorary Fellows from over 20 countries. This year, we celebrate two more outstanding Honorary Fellows who are both widely recognized for their scholarship and mentorship. On behalf of The Honorary Fellow Nomination Committee, we present the 2025 Honorary Fellows, Dr. Patricia Balvanera and Dr. Geraldo Fernandes Wilson.

Patricia Balvanera (Figure 1) is a distinguished Mexican ecologist and full professor at the Institute for Research on Ecosystems and Sustainability (IIES-UNAM). Her work bridges biodiversity science, ecosystem services, and sustainability, with a strong emphasis on social-ecological systems. She has led pioneering research on how biodiversity underpins human well-being through ecological, cultural, and relational pathways. Dr. Balvanera is internationally recognized for her contributions to global assessments, including the IPBES Values Assessment, and serves as Editor-in-Chief of Ecology & Society. Her scientific output includes over 160 peer-reviewed articles, with more than 17,000 citations.

She actively leads and participates in transdisciplinary initiatives such as Cocina Colaboratorio, co-creating sustainable food systems with rural communities, artists, and scholars. At regional and national levels, she has advanced the integration of ecological and social data to inform policies on conservation and equity. Globally, she contributes to scientific networks like PECS and GEOBON, promoting biodiversity monitoring and knowledge co-production. Through her academic leadership, community engagement, and editorial roles, Dr. Balvanera plays a key role in shaping the future of sustainability science.

Dr. Geraldo Wilson Afonso Fernandes (Figure 2) is a leading Brazilian ecologist and full professor at the Federal University of Minas Gerais (UFMG), with a foundational background in Biology (B.Sc., 1983) and advanced degrees in Ecology (M.Sc., 1987; Ph.D., 1992) from Northern Arizona University. His work, spanning over four decades, centers on insect–plant interactions, gall-forming insects, herbivory, climate change, biodiversity, and restoration ecology. Fernandes has authored hundreds of peer-reviewed articles, guided scores of graduate students, and held prestigious visiting positions at institutions like Stanford University (as Tinker Professor), University of Alberta, and Universidad de Sevilla. He is also a full member of the Brazilian Academy of Sciences and a CNPq Researcher 1A.

Committed to long-term ecological research in Brazilian biomes such as campo rupestre, Cerrado, and Caatinga, Dr. Fernandes investigates ecological patterns across altitudinal and environmental gradients. His studies integrate theoretical and applied ecology through contributions to biodiversity monitoring, environmental restoration, and ecosystem services, with research networks spanning from Latin America to North America and Europe. As coordinator of national programs in biodiversity and long-term environmental monitoring, he continues to shape ecological science and conservation policy in Brazil and beyond.

期刊介绍: Ranked by the ISI index, Biotropica is a highly regarded source of original research on the ecology, conservation and management of all tropical ecosystems, and on the evolution, behavior, and population biology of tropical organisms. Published on behalf of the Association of Tropical Biology and Conservation, the journal''s Special Issues and Special Sections quickly become indispensable references for researchers in the field. Biotropica publishes timely Papers, Reviews, Commentaries, and Insights. Commentaries generate thought-provoking ideas that frequently initiate fruitful debate and discussion, while Reviews provide authoritative and analytical overviews of topics of current conservation or ecological importance. The newly instituted category Insights replaces Short Communications.
