Aechmea distichantha (Bromeliaceae) Epiphytes, Potential New Habitat for Aedes Aegypti and Culex quinquefasciatus (Diptera: Culicidae) Collected in the Province of Tucumán, Northwestern Argentina [PDF]
Larval habitats of Aedes (Stegomyia) aegypti (Linnaeus) and Culex (Culex) quinquefasciatus Say in the epiphyte Aechmea distichantha Lemaire (Poales: Bromeliaceae), were found and described both in semi-urban and rural localities of piedmont forest of the

We tested whether male and female wolf spiders (Hogna carolinensis) differ in how they regulate and excrete micronutrients. Our ecological experiment revealed significant differences in whole‐body and excreta elemental composition between sexes, providing new insight into how predator physiology shapes predator‐mediated nutrient cycles.

Systematics of Bromelioideae (Bromeliaceae)—Evidence from Molecular and Anatomical Studies [PDF]
A reconstruction of the phylogeny of Bromeliaceae based on sequence data from three noncoding chloroplast DNA markers (trnL intron, trnT–trnL, and trnT–trnF intergenic spacer [IGS]) is presented, including 26 genera and 33 species.

Genetic variation in the emblematic Puya raimondii (Bromeliaceae) from Huascarán National Park, Peru [PDF]
Puya raimondii, the giant Peruvian and Bolivian terrestrial bromeliad, is an emblematic endemic Andean species well represented in Huascarán National Park in Peru. This park is the largest reserve of puna (high altitude plateau) vegetation. The objective

Mating system variation and assortative mating of sympatric bromeliads (Pitcairnia spp.) endemic to neotropical inselbergs [PDF]
Premise of the study: The mating system is an important component of the complex set of reproductive isolation barriers causing plant speciation.
