Molecular Phylogeny and Evolution of Amazon Parrots in the Greater Antilles. [PDF]

open access: yesGenes (Basel), 2021
Amazon parrots (Amazona spp.) colonized the islands of the Greater Antilles from the Central American mainland, but there has not been a consensus as to how and when this happened. Today, most of the five remaining island species are listed as endangered, threatened, or vulnerable as a consequence of human activity.

A Multi-Taxa Approach to Estuarine Biomonitoring: Assessing Vertebrate Biodiversity and Ecological Continuity Using Environmental DNA Metabarcoding in the Rance River (Brittany, France). [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
We applied eDNA metabarcoding to assess vertebrate diversity in the Rance Estuary, France, across five stations spanning marine to freshwater environments, including areas upstream and downstream of a tidal power plant dam. A total of 124 vertebrate MOTUs were detected, with community composition reflecting the estuarine gradient and species turnover ...

Garnet peridotite found in the Greater Antilles [PDF]

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 2001
Although Alpine peridotites are relatively common in collisional orogenic zones, garnet‐bearing peridotites are rare and only associated with high pressure/ultra‐high pressure or temperature (HP/UHP or T) terranes [Brueckner and Medaris, 2000; Medaris, 1999].

New records and geographic range extension of Epilobocera capolongoi Pretzmann, 2000 (Decapoda: Brachyura: Epiloboceridae) in Cuba, with notes on its natural history and conservation [PDF]

open access: yesNauplius, 2023
The natural history and conservation status of the West Indian endemic freshwater crabs of the genus Epilobocera are poorly known. Several species have restricted distributions and apparently specific ecological requirements, which make them particularly

Recent evolutionary divergence in a plant ring-species is not accompanied by floral phenology or pollinator shifts [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Ecology and Evolution
Background and aims – The study of factors and processes involved in evolutionary divergence can inform how biodiversity is generated and maintained. We evaluate shifts in phenology or in pollination systems as potential barriers to gene exchange and ...
