Unraveling the Phenology of the Liana Marcgravia longifolia: Temporal Patterns and Climatic Cues
Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 2, March 2026.We monitored the reproductive phenology of the Amazonian liana Marcgravia longifolia J. F. Macbr (Marcgraviaceae) for 84 consecutive months in the Peruvian Amazon to quantify the timing, synchrony, and seasonality of flowering and ripe fruiting. Flower presence peaked in August with intermediate synchrony, while ripe fruit presence peaked in November ...

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 1, Page 216-228, January 2026.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Fruit traits play a fundamental role in mediating plant‐frugivore interactions, shaping seed dispersal dynamics. Given the complexity of multi‐species interactions, these traits and, consequently, plant‐frugivore interactions can be indirectly influenced by third‐party ...

Systematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, January‐March 2026.We present an extensive phylogenetic analysis, based on 293 nuclear loci and 728 individuals representing 237 species of Anastrepha, the largest and most economically important New World genus of Tephritidae. The analysis strongly supports the monophyly of most Anastrepha species groups, also revealing previously unknown relationships among species and

First Evidence of Fallen Fruit Feeding by Bats Revealed by Camera Traps in a Tropical Dry Forest
Biotropica, Volume 57, Issue 5, September 2025.Ground foraging among volant frugivores is an underappreciated aspect of behavioral flexibility. Here we report the first evidence of fruit bats feeding on fallen fruit, captured by camera traps in a Costa Rican tropical dry forest. These observations provide insight into the flexibility and mechanisms of coexistence among frugivores.

High extinction risk of the endemic tree flora in a hyper‐diverse region of the Amazon
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 7, Issue 4, Page 998-1010, July 2025.The rapid global loss of biodiversity, especially in the Neotropics, underscores the need to understand how deforestation impacts endemic plant species' extinction risk and conservation status. Due to limited ranges and habitat specialization, endemics are particularly Vulnerable.

Rainforest Fragmentation Decreases the Robustness of Plant‐Frugivore Interaction Networks
Biotropica, Volume 57, Issue 4, July 2025.Our study in northern Costa Rica found that larger forest fragments and greater forest cover boost frugivore species richness and strengthen the modularity and robustness of plant–frugivore networks, with three tanager species serving as key species. Consequently, conserving these species and maintaining larger, contiguous forest areas is essential for

People and Nature, Volume 7, Issue 4, Page 871-886, April 2025.Abstract Rural communities in Amazonia rely on harvesting Mauritia flexuosa fruit, a dominant peatland palm, for their subsistence and income. However, these palms are felled to harvest the fruits, which has led to reduced resource availability due to the pressure exerted by the increasing fruit demand.
