Floristic Similarities between the Lichen Flora of Both Sides of the Drake Passage: A Biogeographical Approach

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2023
This paper analyses the lichen flora of Navarino Island (Tierra del Fuego, Cape Horn Region, Chile), identifying species shared with the South Shetland Islands (Antarctic Peninsula). In this common flora, species are grouped by their biogeographic origin (Antarctic–subantarctic endemic, austral, bipolar, and cosmopolitan), their habitat on Navarino ...

Floristic composition and similarity of 15 hectares in Central Amazon, Brazil

open access: yesRevista de Biología Tropical, 2018
The Amazon region is one of the most diverse areas in the world. Research on high tropical forest diversity brings up relevant contributions to understand the mechanisms that result and support such diversity. In the present study we describe the species composition and diversity of 15 one-ha plots in the Amazonian terra firme dense forest in Brazil ...

Rubiaceae in Brazilian Atlantic Forest remnants: floristic similarity and implications for conservation

open access: yesRevista de Biología Tropical, 2016
<p>The Atlantic Forest presents great biological complexity and high richness and endemism levels, but it is one of the most threatened phytogeographic domain on the planet. Brazil is one of the Rubiaceae diversity centers in the Neotropics. The relevance and representativeness of the Rubiaceae family in the Atlantic Forest is highlighted in ...

Similar understorey structure in spite of edaphic and floristic dissimilarity in Amazonian forests [PDF]

open access: yesActa Amazonica, 2015
Forest structure determines light availability for understorey plants. The structure of lowland Amazonian forests is known to vary over long edaphic gradients, but whether more subtle edaphic variation also affects forest structure has not beenresolved.

Plant life at the dry limit-Spatial patterns of floristic diversity and composition around the hyperarid core of the Atacama Desert.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Extreme arid conditions in the Atacama Desert in northern Chile have created a unique vegetation almost entirely restricted to the desert margins along the coast of the Pacific Ocean and the Andean range.

Effects of introduced species on floristic similarity: Comparing two US states

open access: yesBasic and Applied Ecology, 2008
Abstract This study aims to examine the effects of introduced species on increasing (homogenizing) or decreasing (differentiating) floristic similarity of plant composition. We calculated the Jaccard index for each pair of counties within two states of USA, California and Florida.

First data on the summer phytoplankton composition of 21 microreservoirs in Bulgaria andtheir floristic similarity

open access: yesAnnual of Sofia University "St. Kliment Ohridski", Faculty of Biology, Book 2 - Botanics, 2023
The present paper provides first detailed data on the phytoplankton species composition collected during two summer campaigns (2019 and 2021) from 21 Bulgarian microreservoirs (<100 ha). By conventional light microscopy (LM) 414 algae from seven phyla were identified, among which Chlorophyta were the taxonomically richest group (143 taxa).

Floristic Relationships Among Vegetation Types of New Zealand and the Southern Andes: Similarities and Biogeographic Implications [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Botany, 2008
Similarities between the floras of geographically comparable regions of New Zealand (NZ) and the southern Andes (SA) have interested biologists for over 150 years. The present work selects vegetation types that are physiognomically similar between the two regions, compares their floristic composition, assesses the environmental factors that ...
