Documenting biodiversity with digital data: comparing and contrasting the efficacy of specimen‐based and observation‐based approaches

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Digitized herbarium specimens and iNaturalist observations provide invaluable plant biodiversity data. Combining these two data sources could create a more holistic representation of local biodiversity; however, understanding biases inherent to each is critical to determine how to best combine and utilize these data.

Analysis of floristic similarity between forest remnants from the upper Paraná river floodplain, Brazil - doi: 10.4025/actascibiolsci.v34i3.8500

Acta Scientiarum: Biological Sciences, 2012
The vegetation from the upper Paraná river floodplain is a fragment of Seasonal Semideciduous Forest (SSF) that presents fields, lowlands and extensive areas of pasture along with forest formations. Aiming to accomplish analyses of floristic similarity between riparian forests remnants in this floodplain, an analysis using nine surveys was performed ...

Floristic composition and similarity of a conservation area in the semiarid region of Paraíba State, Northeastern Brazil

Biota Neotropica
Abstract We present here a floristic survey of the angiosperms found in the Reserva Ecológica Olho d’Água das Onças (REODO) in the semiarid region of Paraíba State, Brazil, to provide a basis for proactive conservation projects there. Fifteen excursions were carried out between August/2022 and April/2024 employing traditional methods of collecting and ...

Florística de trepadeiras em fragmentos de florestas semideciduais em Uberlândia, Minas Gerais, Brasil

Rodriguésia
Trepadeira é um importante componente da composição e riqueza de espécies vegetais em florestas tropicais. Contudo, pesquisas exclusivas com esse grupo ainda são poucas no Brasil.

Limited drought tolerance in the neotropical seasonally dry forest plants impairs future species richness

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Global climate change will likely modify the plant assemblages of the Neotropical seasonally dry forest based on the physiological capabilities of the species. Abstract Neotropical seasonal dry forest (NSDF) is one of the most threatened ecosystems according to global climate change predictions.

Gall responses to drying habitats: Insights from the community of galling herbivores associated with the superhost Caryocar brasiliense Cambess. (Caryocaraceae)

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Drying processes in the Brazilian palm swamps or Veredas, impact the gall community in adjacent vegetation by reducing the abundance of more sensitive galls, while more resilient galls acclimate to increased dryness by developing thicker protective tissues. Abstract Galls are new plant organs formed in response to the stimuli of gall‐inducing organisms,

Conceptualizing and contextualizing “large‐scale” and “scaling‐up” ecological restoration

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Current restoration efforts are lagging behind the extent and pace of environmental degradation. This emphasizes the need and urgency to scale up ecological restoration. This study sought to understand the context of “large‐scale” and “scaling‐up” ecological restoration, that is, what it means, entails, where, and how it is implemented by ...

Woody vegetation in Atlantic Forest inselbergs: floristic similarity, patterns of richness, pollination/dispersal syndromes, and influence of climatic variables

Biota Neotropica
Abstract Forest ecosystems established on developed soils occupy the most significant territorial extension in the Atlantic Forest and are historically the most studied environments in this domain. However, woody vegetation on granitoid rock outcrops (inselbergs) has been historically neglected.
