Seeing the wood despite the trees: Exploring human disturbance impact on plant diversity, community structure, and standing biomass in fragmented high Andean forests. [PDF]
High Andean forests play a key role in providing ecosystem services for neighboring urban settlements. Here, we aimed to identify and understand the effects of anthropogenic perturbations on diversity, composition, and structure of plant communities, as well as aboveground biomass in high Andean forest remnants in the hinterland of Bogotá.

Richness and Composition of Mycorrhizal Fungi Varies by Flood Level and River Basin in Oligotrophic Amazonian Seasonally Flooded Forests. [PDF]
Conceptual representation of topographic gradients in Amazonian igapó forests. High, medium, and low igapós differ in elevation and flood duration, with low igapós experiencing the longest periods of inundation. Fungal mycelia and DNA symbols indicate sampling of root‐associated mycorrhizal communities across the gradient, used to assess the influence ...

Cybianthus anthuriophyllus (Primulaceae) was previously known from eastern Ecuador and northern Peru. Here we document the first confirmed occurrences of this species in Colombia and develop a distribution model based on collections from the Andean–Amazonian foothills of Caquetá, Cauca, and Putumayo departments, in order to clarify its conservation ...
