Speciation with gene flow

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Biodiversity is threatened by human activities, with extinction debt accumulating rapidly. Many of these activities change the connectivity of populations, fragmenting existing population systems or bringing previously isolated populations or species into contact.

Bromeliads going batty: pollinator partitioning among sympatric chiropterophilous Bromeliaceae

AoB Plants, 2019
Pre-pollination mechanisms for isolation among sympatric bat-pollinated plants are largely unknown. We investigated the mechanisms for reproductive segregation between four sympatric chiropterophilous bromeliads in Veracruz, Mexico.

Assemblages of anoxygenic phototrophic bacteria in tank bromeliads exhibit a host‐specific signature

Journal of Ecology, 2020
Anoxygenic phototrophic bacteria (APB) are a very significant metabolic functional group in the phytotelmata of tank‐forming Bromeliaceae plants. Considering the close relationships existing between the bromeliad and its tank microbiota, the dominance of

FROG ASSEMBLAGE ASSOCIATED WITH BROMELIADS IN A SANDY COASTAL PLAIN IN THE STATE OF ESPÍRITO SANTO, SOUTHEASTERN BRAZIL

Papéis Avulsos de Zoologia
Amphibians may use bromeliads for reproduction (i.e., bromeligenous species) or only for refuge and foraging (i.e., bromelicolous species). The partition of bromeliad resources is essential to maintain the coexistence of the associated assemblages.

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

Parasites & 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 ...

The predatory behavior of ants: an impressive panoply of morphological adaptations

Insect Science, EarlyView.
This review focuses on predation in ants, showing the wide diversity of cases from solitary foraging to group hunting tactics, as well as the evolution of mandible shape frequently adapted to capture specific prey. Although most ants are generalist feeders, finding their sugary substances directly on plants or indirectly via sap‐sucking insects, some ...
