Cudbear and the Colours of the Atlantic Rainforest

Heritage
The temperate rainforests and their associated coastline in Scotland have long been home to dye-producing plants including lichens, some commercialised and patented by George and Cuthbert Gordon in 1758 as the dye Cudbear. Using merchant records and family correspondence, this paper will shed new light on the early trade and manufacture of Cudbear and ...

Urban Landscape Influence Orchid Bee Diversity in a Tropical Megacity

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The increasing urbanization has affected pollinator communities, such as Euglossini bees, which play a crucial role in maintaining biodiversity through the pollination of numerous plants. However, the impact of different levels of urbanization on the diversity of these bees is still not fully understood, especially in large tropical urban ...

Integrative taxonomy reveals four new species of the armoured catfish genus Pareiorhina (Siluriformes: Loricariidae) from the upper Paraná River basin, Brazil

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Four new species of the small‐sized armoured catfish genus Pareiorhina are described from mountain ranges in the Grande River drainage, upper Paraná River basin, based on morphological and molecular species delimitation methods. Molecular analyses based on the cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) marker recovered Pareiorhina as polyphyletic ...

Monitoring of rainforest restoration is predominantly short‐term and focused on forest structure in Australia's Wet Tropics

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Forest restoration is increasing worldwide, driven by global initiatives and climate policy, yet the speed and scale of current efforts raise important questions about evaluating success. In tropical forests, restoration outcomes are inherently multidimensional and prolonged with structural attributes such as canopy closure ...

Grounds for Accountability: Preparedness for Supply Chain Due Diligence Legislation in Canada

Regulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Canada is under growing pressure to adopt mandatory supply chain due diligence legislation to hold corporations accountable for environmental and social harms embedded in global supply chains. In response, the Government of Canada is exploring policy options for stricter supply chain regulations, including legislative measures such as the ...

BAT ASSEMBLAGE OF THE MARUMBI PEAK STATE PARK, BRAZILIAN ATLANTIC RAINFOREST

Mastozoología Neotropical, 2018
(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) The great biological diversity found in tropical forests has intrigued scientists for a long time. In this study, we used a bi-dimensional niche matrix to explain the coexistence of bat species in a Brazilian Atlantic Rainforest locality. Bats were caught with a set of mist nets and manually.

Is There Life After Death? The Role of Standing Dead Phorophytes in Supporting Tropical Epiphyte Diversity

Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Global increases in tree mortality from climate change and land‐use are altering forest structures, impacting canopy‐dwelling plants like vascular epiphytes, which depend on host trees (phorophytes). When a phorophyte dies standing, it becomes a snag, the local substrate conditions change and microclimatic exposure may increase, particularly ...

Social Wasps in Exotic Forest Planting and Atlantic Rainforest in the Neotropical Region

, 2020
Social wasps play an important role in communities, whether in natural or agricultural ecosystems, performing pollination and/or predation on other organisms, especially caterpillars, which reveals their potential for biological control.

Interplay Between River Formation and Historical Climatic Changes Drove Diversification of the Thamnomanes caesius and T. schistogynus (Passeriformes, Thamnophilidae) Species Complex Across Amazonian and Atlantic Forests

Zoologica Scripta, Volume 55, Issue 4, Page 555-567, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The Amazon and Atlantic forests harbour immense biodiversity shaped by complex evolutionary history with diverse processes leading to species build‐up. We investigated the Cinereous Antshrike species complex (Thamnomanes caesius and T. schistogynus) to disentangle the relative contributions of riverine barriers and historical climatic ...
