Rediscovering two Isoetes species in the Brazilian Amazon and Cerrado after 167 years [PDF]
PhytoKeys, 2019 Isoetes amazonica and I. gardneriana were the first two species of the genus to be collected from Brazil. Isoetes amazonica was gathered by Richard Spruce in the Amazon basin near Santarém in the state of Pará in 1850.

Causes of delayed angiosperm diversification: The photosynthetic revolution, increased opportunity costs of anti-herbivore defenses, selection for qualitative toxins, and acceleration of plant-herbivore coevolution. [PDF]
Am J BotAbstract Why did it take so long for angiosperms to diversify after they arose? Here I consider the indirect but potentially crucial impact of the “photosynthetic revolution” on plant–herbivore coevolution. Increased vein density in fossil leaves implies a doubling in photosynthesis 125–100 million years ago.

A novel single-cell NAD-ME C<sub>4</sub> subtype integrated with CAM and bicarbonate use in an aquatic plant. [PDF]
New PhytolSummary Many plants maximize photosynthesis by using a CO2‐concentrating mechanism (CCM). Based on physiology, the freshwater plant Ottelia alismoides has three CCMs: C4 metabolism (NAD‐malic enzyme (NAD‐ME) subtype) and bicarbonate‐use during the day plus crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) at night and lacks Kranz anatomy. Here, we combined a range of

Isoetes pedersenii, a new species from Southern South America
Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2010 The name Isoetes pedersenii H.P. Fuchs (Lycophyta), a species known only from the Mburucuyá National Park, Corrientes, Argentina, is validated. Observations were carried out on herbarium material with stereoscopic, light and scanning electron microscopes.

The southernmost distribution range of Isoetes panamensis Maxon & C.V. Morton (Lycopodiopsida, Isoetaceae) in the relicts of the Cerrado in southern Brazil [PDF]
Check List, 2021 Establishing the geographical distribution limits of species may provide not only data to understand their range of adaptation to conservation proposals but also records of the dynamics in the vegetation across the time.
