Exploring Costa Rica's fungal trends: Insights from digitized specimens

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 4, Page 1256-1274, July 2026.
Fungi are essential to tropical ecosystems but remain largely absent from conservation agendas. By analyzing over 78,000 fungal records from Costa Rica—a globally recognized biodiversity hotspot—this study reveals key patterns in fungal diversity, distribution, and seasonality.

Urban–Wild Interface Diversity: A Comprehensive Checklist of Herpetofauna of Guayaquil, Ecuador

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Amphibians and reptiles in Guayaquil comprise multiple taxonomic orders and occur across conservation areas, forest remnants, and urban parks, including several endemic species and numerous taxa with type localities in the city. Although most species are globally classified as Least Concern, discrepancies between global and national threat assessments ...

Análisis de la regeneración natural de las especies forestales del Jardín Botánico de la Universidad Técnica de Manabí

Ab Intus, 2022
La regeneración natural juega un papel importante en el mantenimiento de las poblaciones de árboles, conservación y diversidad de los bosques secos tropicales. Este tipo de bosque es vulnerable con poco conocimiento sobre su vegetación, razón por la cual

The Flooding Gradient Affects Seed Dispersal by Fruit‐Eating Fishes in Amazonian Whitewater Floodplain Forests

Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 3, May 2026.
This research approaches the interaction between frugivorous fish and the flooded forests in the central Amazon. We evaluated the fruit consumption by fish and the seed dispersal potential along the flood gradient. We tested the hypothesis that the role of fish as seed dispersers varies between low várzea (LV) and high várzea (HV) forests.

Modelización de la madurez forestal en base a datos del Inventario Forestal Nacional y el escáner láser terrestre

Cuadernos de la Sociedad Española de Ciencias Forestales, 2023
Este resumen gráfico representa una síntesis de la tesis doctoral, donde las gráficas ejemplifican cómo la madurez (o grado de naturalidad) forestal, desde un punto de vista cuantificable y por lo tanto monitorizable, puede ser estimada en base a diferentes parámetros hipotéticos (p. ej. ,  y ).

Development of species distribution models helps identify source country anomalies in timber supply chains

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract For many timber species, a lack of consistent, comprehensive global distribution data makes validating supply source (country of harvest) difficult. To supplement these data, we developed species distribution models (SDMs) for the American mahogany species (genus Swietenia) to demonstrate how SDMs can assist in the analysis of supply sources ...

Using bi-temporal ALS and NFI-based time-series data to account for large-scale aboveground carbon dynamics: the showcase of mediterranean forests

European Journal of Remote Sensing
New remote-sensed biomass change products will transform our capacity to monitor and validate large-scale carbon dynamic in the next decade. In this study, we evaluated the use of multitemporal Airborne Laser Scanning (ALS) and the Climate Change ...

Unravelling the drivers of island species richness in tropical savannas

Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 4, April 2026.
Murundu island area explains a substantial proportion of the variation in tree and herb richness, consistent with Island Biogeography Theory. On average, a 10% increase in island size corresponds to increases of seven tree species and 7.8 herb species.
