DNA barcodes provide insights into the diversity and biogeography of the non‐biting midge Polypedilum (Diptera, Chironomidae) in South America

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 10, October 2023., 2023
DNA barcodes provide insights into the diversity and biogeography of the non‐biting midge Polypedilum (Diptera, Chironomidae) in South America. Abstract South America, particularly within its tropical belt, is renowned for its unparalleled high levels of species richness, surpassing other major biomes.

Early meteorological records from Corrientes and Bahía Blanca, Argentina: Initial ACRE‐Argentina data rescue and related activities

Geoscience Data Journal, Volume 10, Issue 3, Page 328-346, July 2023., 2023
Weather observations transcribed from the original records of ‘Anales de la Oficina Meteorológica Nacional’ and taken every hour during the years 1860–1879 at Bahía Blanca and from 1873–1886 at Corrientes, are presented. The digitization was carried out through the project Meteorologum ad Extremum Terrae (MET) launched in the Zooniverse interface ...

Liverworts show a globally consistent mid‐elevation richness peak

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 3, March 2023., 2023
The investigation of elevational gradients allows to draw conclusions on factors and mechanisms determining patterns in species richness distribution. In this study, we for the first time compared worldwide data of elevational species richness patterns of liverworts and found that a hump‐shaped pattern with highest richness at the middle of the ...

Two for the Road: Measuring Regional Disparity and Agglomeration in Human Development Level and Transportation Infrastructure

Journal of Advanced Transportation, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
As the core element of social‐economic development in the Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau, transportation dramatically shapes the scale, type, and intensity of human activities. First, this study utilizes night light data and kilometer‐grid population data to construct night light development index (NLDI) and to evaluate the human development level at the county

Thinking of Melastomataceae: Revisiting Humboldt and Bonpland's Monographie des Melastomacées (1806–1823) from a historical perspective

TAXON, Volume 75, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract During their voyage to the Americas (1799–1804), Alexander von Humboldt and Aimé Bonpland described and collected American flora, fauna, minerals and other objects. After returning to Europe, they published several works, including Monographie des Melastomacées, initiated by Bonpland to classify this complex botanical family.

A new phylogeny and phylogenetic classification for Solanaceae

TAXON, Volume 75, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Solanaceae are a globally distributed family of considerable economic importance. Recent phylogenetic work on various clades in the family has resulted in a plethora of names at various taxonomic levels. This results in a confusing set of names applied to clades at different ranks, and to the use of informal names that are often not accepted ...

How much sampling is enough? Four decades of understorey bird mist‐netting across Amazonia define the minimum effort to uncover species assemblage structure

Ibis, Volume 168, Issue 2, Page 571-587, April 2026.
Mist‐net sampling comprises a key methodological component of assemblage‐wide avifaunal studies, particularly in the understorey of closed‐canopy tropical forests. To investigate mist‐net bird captures and species assemblage structure, we compiled data from 312 sites across the Pan‐Amazon.

Complete Rainforest Elevational Gradient Reveals Unusual Diversity Patterns of Non‐Volant Mammals in New Guinea

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 31, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim We address a critical gap in the elevational community ecology of tropical non‐volant mammals in the Australian and Oceanian zoogeographic realms. Specifically, we document alpha and beta diversity, environmental predictors and community composition of individual clades in relation to their ecology and evolutionary history along an ...

The Free‐Range Rock Cavy (Kerodon rupestris) Communicates the Urgency of a Threat Using Different Alarm Calls

Ethology, Volume 131, Issue 10, Page 175-186, October 2025.
Rock cavy alarm calls are finely modulated by threat proximity. ABSTRACT This study examines whether rock cavies (Kerodon rupestris), which are social rodents, modulate their alarm calls in response to various threat contexts. Conducted across four sample areas within two study sites in the Brazilian Caatinga region, alarm calls were collected using ...
