Hummingbird diversity in a fragmented tropical landscape in the Chocó biogeographic zone
Biotropica, Volume 55, Issue 2, Page 418-429, March 2023., 2023 We investigated habitat‐ and site‐level patterns of diversity, and community composition of hummingbirds between continuous forest (transects n = 16 in ~3500 ha) and more disturbed surrounding fragments (n = 39, 2.5–48.0 ha) in the Chocó rainforest of northwestern Ecuador. We found higher hummingbird species richness in forest fragments relative to the

Biosilicification in monocots: Comparative analysis highlights contrasting patterns of deposition. [PDF]
Am J BotAbstract Premise New insights into biomineral uptake and sequestration are important for understanding how plants grow. Some plants accumulate silica accretions in precise locations in particular cells. Among monocots, controlled biosilicification occurs in several different forms and is restricted to commelinids and orchids. Methods We utilized energy‐
