Hummingbird flower visitation rates vary with species traits, floral abundance and phenology across bioregions

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2025, Issue 9, September 2025.
A myriad of factors influence species interactions, and determining their relative importance is a major challenge in community ecology. Here, we explored the multiple factors influencing hummingbird visitation rates to flowers by considering pollinator and floral traits alongside the broader ecological context (i.e.

Overlooked and misunderstood: A morpho‐molecular revision of Ditrichaceae s.str. (Dicranidae, Bryophyta), with a focus on the Holarctic species of Ditrichum

open access: yesTAXON, Volume 74, Issue 2, Page 223-259, April 2025.
Abstract We revised the Holarctic taxa of Ditrichaceae on the basis of both organellar DNA sequence data and morphological traits. After the removal of phylogenetically discordant elements related to Flexitrichum and Rhamphidium, the remaining representatives of the family cluster into three well‐supported lineages, which are recognized here as the ...

2015/16 El Niño increased water demand and pushed plants from a Mesic tropical montane grassland beyond their hydraulic safety limits

open access: yesAustral Ecology, Volume 49, Issue 1, January 2024.
In this study, we found that the strong 2015/16 El Niño event did not reduce water supply, but increased water demand in a cool–humid tropical montane grassland in South America. The increased midday air temperature and vapour pressure deficit during the El Niño dry season was enough to result in short‐term plant water stress, regardless of plants ...

The Protective Action of Coutarea hexandra (Rubiaceae) on the Neuromuscular Blockade Induced by Lachesis muta muta (Viperidae: Crotalinae) Venom

open access: yesBioMed Research International, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Envenomations by snakes represent a neglected health problem in tropical and subtropical countries. In South America, Lachesis muta occasionally causes severe human envenomation, with treatment being conditioned to an unspecific antivenom. In this work, we examined the neutralizing ability of Coutarea hexandra stem bark hydroalcoholic extract (Ch‐E ...
