Evidence supporting diplochorous seed dispersal of Rafflesiaceae species is presented. Rodents and treeshrews ingest fruit and act as primary dispersers. Dung beetles subsequently burry and disassemble seed‐laden faecal pellets, potentially placing seeds in close proximity to the roots of host Tetrastigma lianas.

We revealed strong scale‐dependent divergence in the ecological drivers shaping Hainan gibbon distribution. Population‐level patterns were primarily constrained by macro‐environmental factors, whereas group‐level activity differed markedly between family groups in response to fine‐scale habitat features.

Global increase of lianas in tropical forests
AbstractLianas profoundly affect tropical forests dynamics, reducing productivity and carbon storage, which underscores the importance of monitoring change in their abundance in projecting the future of the global terrestrial carbon store. While increasing liana populations are documented within the Neotropics, the global consistency of these patterns ...

Unpacking the drivers of gut‐passage times of seeds dispersed by frugivorous lemurs
Abstract The impacts of endozoochory on plant populations are primarily determined by how seeds are processed in animal guts. Therefore, understanding the factors that determine how long seeds remain in the gut is crucial for predicting the outcomes of animal‐mediated seed dispersal.

ABSTRACT Xylem water isotope values are widely used to trace plant water sources. However, the sampling decisions that precede extraction are rarely fully reported in isotope studies, limiting reproducibility and cross comparisons. A survey of 42 researchers across five continents, complemented by a virtual community workshop, revealed substantial ...

A new old species of Tetracera (Dilleniaceae) from Espinhaço Range, Brazil
Tetracera is the only genus within Dilleniaceae with a pantropical distribution. During efforts for a taxonomic revision of the neotropical species, we identified incongruences between application of names and their taxonomic identities, based on protologue and type specimen analysis. Here we describe a new species for the genus bearing a single carpel
