Diversity and distribution of the bryophyte flora in montane forests in the Chapada Diamantina region of Brazil

Acta Botânica Brasílica, 2013
Bryophytes constitute an important component of tropical rain forests, which provide microhabitats favorable for their establishment. Bryophytes are also quite responsive to changes in microclimate, which makes them good bioindicators.

Revisiting the typification of Lippia riedeliana (Verbenaceae)

TAXON, Volume 75, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract The present study revisits the previously selected lectotype for Lippia riedeliana, which was designated in a proposal to reject this name. According to our reinterpretation, this typification was based on non‐original material and, therefore, must be superseded. The holotype is at LE, and this specimen must be cited accordingly.

Socioenvironmental implications of Jatropha curcas cultivation for biodiesel supply in postmining communities

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, Volume 20, Issue 3, Page 1235-1243, May/June 2026.
Abstract The long‐term viability of Jatropha curcas as a biodiesel feedstock has been widely debated. Many early initiatives failed to deliver consistent economic returns despite promising environmental attributes. This study re‐evaluated J. curcas‐based systems within an integrated environmental–economic framework, focusing on their potential role in ...
