Species Distribution Modeling Reveals Future Climate Refugia and Important Areas for Rocky Plants in Brazil's Iron Quadrangle. [PDF]
Ecol EvolClimate change is projected to sharply reduce suitable habitats for eight endemic rupestrian plant species in Brazil's Iron Quadrangle. Ensemble niche models reveal species‐specific vulnerabilities and highlight climatic refugia and corridors that may support persistence.

Testing the Limits of Morphology: A Comprehensive Morphometric Study of the Sister Lineages Lasiocyano Galleti-Lima, Hamilton, Borges and Guadanucci, 2023 and Lasiodora C. L. Koch, 1850 (Theraphosidae, Mygalomorphae). [PDF]
J MorpholAn extensive morphometric framework combining linear and geometric morphometry was applied to evaluate interspecific differentiation within the Lasiocyano sazimai and Lasiodora lineage (Theraphosidae). Despite statistically significant differences in some analyses, extensive morphological overlap and high intraspecific variation consistently reduced ...

O fogo é sempre um vilão nos campos rupestres?
Biodiversidade Brasileira, 2011 Os campos rupestres ocupam menos de 3% das áreas de Cerrado e Caatinga, mas abrigam uma proporção significativa das espécies vegetais vasculares presentes nestes biomas.
