ABSTRACT In this contribution to the study of pygmy grasshoppers, a new genus is described, which inhabits the high Andean forests and páramos surrounding the Bogotá Savannah, Colombia. Bogotattetix Cadena‐Castañeda, García‐García & Tavares, gen. nov. includes a new species, Bogotattetix chingazaensis Cadena‐Castañeda, García‐García & Tavares, sp. nov.

The metagenome of bromeliads phytotelma in Puerto Rico
Bromeliads tank water or phytotelma is an eutrophic microenvironment where microorganisms have evolved to resist sudden changes in pH and nutritional competition. Metagenomics studies have been poorly studied in bromeliads and environmental DNA (eDNA) characterization for its microenvironment is deficient in Puerto Rico.

“On a tree”, “terrestrial”, or “on the rocks”? Habit diversity in the megadiverse genus Peperomia
The plasticity of a large proportion of Peperomia species to occupy multiple types of microhabitats is not well documented due to the typically rigid categorization of habitat use. Therefore, the numerical approach presented is methodologically innovative to advance ecological data integration to provide a more realistic visualization of the habitat ...

We examined how community diversity and phylogenetic context are associated with plant thermal strategies along a tropical elevational gradient in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest, using Pitcairnia flammea as a focal species. By integrating community surveys, phylogenetic structure, functional traits, and experimental estimates of heat and cold tolerance,
