Stemflow Dynamics in the Jamari National Forest (Brazilian Amazon): I. The Role of Tree Structure

Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 3, May 2026.
A portion of rainfall that contacts tree canopies is drained down tree stems as stemflow. Stemflow is an underexamined component of rainfall partitioning in tropical forests. To investigate how tree canopy structural attributes influence stemflow in the Brazilian Amazon, we measured stemflow, rainfall, and dendrometric parameters of 56 trees in the ...

The typification of Cordia flavescens Aubl., the transfer of Firensia Scop. from Cordia L. (Cordiaceae; Boraginales) to the synonymy of Ocotea Aubl. (Lauraceae), and the identity of the species of Firensia

PhytoKeys, 2013
Firensia Scop. was based on Cordia flavescens Aubl., a species described and illustrated from a mixed collection that Scopoli never transferred to Firensia. The genus included three additional species formally named by Rafinesque.

Method for Lignin Analysis in Wood by Fluorescence Microscopy

Microscopy Research and Technique, Volume 89, Issue 4, Page 578-589, April 2026.
Autofluorescence in extractive‐free wood slides is a promising approach for investigating the relationship between fluorescence intensity and lignin content, particularly when combined with automated photomicrograph analysis using ImageJ. ABSTRACT Native Amazonian species present high anatomical variation which is reflected in their lignin content ...

IUCN Red List Regional Assessment of the Flora of Niue Utilising Indigenous Local Knowledge and Botanical Information

Journal of the Royal Society of New Zealand, Volume 56, Issue 2, April 2026.
A regional assessment of the indigenous vascular plants of Niue is presented using the IUCN Red List criteria. The assessment was undertaken during a community workshop that drew on the indigenous local knowledge and scientific information. The assessment comprised 197 named taxa and 8 indeterminate entities, with 4 (2.0%) taxa assessed as Extinct and ...

Neglected Floral Visitors in the Galapagos Islands: Understanding the Structure of Ant‐Flower Interaction Networks

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 3, Page 321-332, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Ant‐flower interactions are prevalent in many ecosystems, yet their ecological significance remains poorly understood, particularly in isolated systems like the Galapagos Islands, where unique biotic assemblages create distinct interaction networks.

Prospective of indigenous African wild food plants in alleviation of the severe iron deficiency anaemia in Sub‐Saharan Africa

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 486-498, March 2026.
Iron deficiency anaemia remains a major public health challenge in Sub‐Saharan Africa, where population growth, displacement and limited resources heighten nutritional insecurity. We compiled a list of indigenous African underutilized wild food plants and examined their potential for addressing micronutrient deficiencies.

Seasonal and Within‐Day Variation on Hummingbirds Visits and Dominance Hierarchy in a Brazilian Cerrado Area

Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Plant‐hummingbird interaction networks can be influenced by environmental conditions and resources, which vary seasonally and daily. We aimed to understand how variations in these parameters across these two temporal windows influence patterns of plant‐hummingbird interactions and hummingbirds dominance hierarchies in a Brazilian Cerrado ...
