Conservation status of three rare endemic Phaseolus bean (Leguminosae, Phaseoleae) species of Costa Rica

Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2024, Issue 12, December 2024.
We aimed at an inventory of all populations of wild Phaseolus (bean) species in Costa Rica, in relation to future plant breeding. During the field work in 2003–2018, three new and rare bean species (i.e. P. albicarminus, P. angucianae and P. hygrophilus) were found in different montane forest habitats which originally occupy a small acreage.

Differences in bird and bat traits, seed-dispersal interactions and functions between tropical montane forest and bracken-dominated areas

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution
Most tropical plant species depend on animals to disperse their seeds. Seed dispersal by animals allows plants to colonize new sites in deforested habitats helping to accelerate forest recovery.
