Mosquito (Diptera: Culicidae) assemblages associated with Nidularium and Vriesea bromeliads in Serra do Mar, Atlantic Forest, Brazil

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2012
Background The most substantial and best preserved area of Atlantic Forest is within the biogeographical sub-region of Serra do Mar. The topographic complexity of the region creates a diverse array of microclimates, which can affect species distribution ...

Studies on Pygmy Grasshoppers: Bogotatettix Cadena‐Castañeda, García‐García & Tavares, gen. nov. (Orthoptera: Tetrigidae), a New Genus From the High Andean Forests and Páramos

open access: yesAustral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 3, August 2026.
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.

Morphophysiological responses of Billbergia zebrina Lindl. (Bromeliaceae) in function of types and concentrations of carbohydrates during conventional in vitro culture

open access: yesOrnamental Horticulture, 2020
When propagated in vitro, explants receive all the nutrients needed for their growth, including carbohydrates, from the culture medium. However, it is not well understood how the type and concentration of carbohydrates can affect the functioning of the ...

The metagenome of bromeliads phytotelma in Puerto Rico

open access: yesData in Brief, 2018
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

open access: yesPlant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 5, Page 1373-1384, August 2026.
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 ...

MORFOGÉNESIS IN VITRO A PARTIR DE YEMAS APICALES Y BASES DE HOJAS DE LAS ESPECIES DE BROMELIAS AECMEA VEITCHII Y RACINAEA CRISPA MORFOGÉNESIS IN VITRO A PARTIR DE YEMAS APICALES Y BASES DE HOJAS DE LAS ESPECIES DE BROMELIAS AECMEA VEITCHII Y RACINAEA CRISPA

open access: yesActualidades Biológicas, 2011
Las bromelias son un recurso promisorio presente en nuestros bosques neotropicales. Sin embargo, debido a su extracción no controlada y a la intervención de sus hábitats, algunas poblaciones de estas plantas han disminuido drásticamente, al punto que ...

Diversity and Community Structure Underlie Divergence in Thermal Strategies Across Tropical Elevations

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
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,

Volume de água armazenado no tanque de bromélias, em restingas da costa brasileira Water volume stored in bromeliad tanks in Brazilian restinga habitats

open access: yesActa Botânica Brasílica, 2010
Muitas espécies de bromélias armazenam água da chuva em seu interior, sendo esta característica resultado da distribuição espiralada de suas folhas, que formam pequenos tanques. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar e comparar o volume de água efetivamente

Ecology of the bromeligenous frog Phyllodytes luteolus (Anura, Hylidae) from three restinga remnants across Brazil's coast

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2016
In this study, we analyzed diet, sexual dimorphism and bromeliad use in three populations of the hylid frog Phyllodytes luteolus from restinga habitats along the Brazilian coast. We found 13 arthropods categories in 161 stomachs.
