A molecular phylogeny of scaly tree ferns (Cyatheaceae)
American Journal of Botany, 2007 Tree ferns recently were identified as the closest sister group to the hyperdiverse clade of ferns, the polypods. Although most of the 600 species of tree ferns are arborescent, the group encompasses a wide range of morphological variability, from diminutive members to the giant scaly tree ferns, Cyatheaceae.

Shape and Size Adaptations of Planthoppers Along an Altitudinal Gradient on Mount Wilhelm (Papua New Guinea). [PDF]
Ecol EvolMountains are an ideal context to study species community and adaptation in relation to environmental changes such as temperature. Cixidae show niche conservatism at high altitude, with conserved forewing size and shape. Conversely, size and shape variations of forewings of Achilidae and Derbidae traduce an adaptation to high altitudes.

Distribution model and prediction of the tree fern Alsophila costularis Baker (Cyatheaceae) in China. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe employed an optimized MaxEnt model to evaluate the relative contribution of each bioclimatic variable and predict the suitable habitat for Alsophila costularis Baker under past, current, and future climate scenarios, which is an endangered relict tree fern known as a living fossil.

A comprehensive illustrated protocol for clearing, mounting, and imaging leaf venation networks. [PDF]
Appl Plant SciAbstract Premise Leaf venation network architecture can provide insights into plant evolution, ecology, and physiology. Venation networks are typically assessed through histological methods, but existing protocols provide limited guidance on processing large or challenging leaves.

Through the eyes of the Andean bear: Camera collar insights into the life of a threatened South American Ursid. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThis study used a camera‐equipped GPS collar on a male Andean bear in southeastern Peru, revealing rare behaviors like courtship, novel diets, and geophagy. These findings from the Kosñipata Valley provide valuable insights into the poorly understood ecology of Andean bears and suggest many areas for further research.

Fern mycorrhizae do not respond to fertilization in a tropical montane forest. [PDF]
Plant Environ InteractIn the present study, we assessed the root‐associated fungi of two epiphytic and two terrestrial fern species in a 15‐year fertilization experiment in the Ecuadorean Andes. We found no effect of fertilization on the diversity or abundance of the fungal assemblages associated with ferns.
