Estratificación vertical y preferencia de hospedero de las epífitas vasculares de un bosque nublado de Chiapas, México

open access: yesRevista de Biología Tropical, 2008
En escala local, la alta diversidad de epífitas vasculares en bosques montanos neotropicales ha sido explicada por que logran estratificar verticalmente al dosel y tienen relaciones específicas con sus hospederos.

Dynamics of epiphytism on Padina concrescens (Dictyotales: Phaeophyta) from the southwestern coast of the Baja California Peninsula, Mexico

open access: yesCiencias Marinas, 2007
The community dynamics of algal epiphytes was studied in relation to the area available on Padina concrescens at Los Cerritos, Baja California Sur (Mexico). Monthly surveys were conducted over ten months.

Influence of Deadwood, Tree‐Related Microhabitats, and Forest Structural Features on Saproxylic Arthropod Diversity

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
We used environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding across 135 temperate forest plots in Germany to examine how deadwood, tree‐related microhabitats (TreMs), and forest structure shape saproxylic arthropod communities. Structural equation modeling revealed that TreM richness and deadwood volume are key predictors of arthropod diversity, highlighting the ...

The role of epiphytic algae and different species of Sargassum in the distribution and feeding of herbivorous amphipods

open access: yesLatin American Journal of Aquatic Research, 2014
The presence of particular algal species can directly influence the distribution and abundance of mesoherbivores. The aim of this study was to answer the following questions: Do Sargassum beds of different localities show variation in the load of ...

Seasonal differences in predation risk among seagrass epifauna species stabilize community‐level predation over time

open access: yesEcology, Volume 107, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Predation risk varies through space and time due to changing refuge quality, predator communities, and prey traits. Despite this, ecological research is often focused on measuring average predation risk at the community level. While this can give important information about overall trophic transfer and ecological efficiency, it ignores ...

Ecological stoichiometry of the epiphyte community in a subtropical forest canopy

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2019
Epiphytes in tree canopies make a considerable contribution to the species diversity, aboveground biomass, and nutrient pools in forest ecosystems. However, the nutrient status of epiphytes and their possible adaptations to nutrient deficiencies in the ...

Rediscovery of Passiflora clypeophylla (subgenus Decaloba): a highly threatened and narrow endemic species found within a karstic canyon in Guatemala

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 5, May 2026.
Passiflora clypeophylla, an endemic species to the Guatemalan karstic forests last seen in 1889 and deemed extinct, was rediscovered in the Department of Alta Verapaz, east of Cobán. The species was known only from a single specimen hailed from the type locality, Rubel Cruz, where it has been found again. An additional location has been identified in a

Branchfall as a Demographic Filter for Epiphyte Communities: Lessons from Forest Floor-Based Sampling.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Local variation in the abundance and richness of vascular epiphytes is often attributed to environmental characteristics such as substrate and microclimate. Less is known, however, about the impacts of tree and branch turnover on epiphyte communities. To
