Molecular Ecology, Volume 32, Issue 12, Page 3182-3199, June 2023., 2023 Abstract The tropical Andes are one of the most important biodiversity hotspots on Earth, yet our understanding of how their biotas have responded to Quaternary climatic oscillations is extraordinarily limited and the alternative models proposed to explain their demographic dynamics have been seldom formally evaluated. Here, we test the hypothesis that

Does sexual conflict contribute to the evolution of novel warning patterns?
Journal of Evolutionary Biology, Volume 36, Issue 3, Page 563-578, March 2023., 2023 Why warning patterns are so diverse is an enduring evolutionary puzzle. Because predators associate particular patterns with unpleasant experiences, an individual’s predation risk should decrease as the local density of its warning pattern increases, promoting pattern monomorphism.

Journal of Applied Ichthyology, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023 Length‐weight relationships (LWR) were described for 53 species of shallow‐water fish caught with bottom trawls in a depth range between 7.3 and 108.1 m during September 2013 in the Colombian Caribbean Sea (fishing area 31 of the FAO). A linear regression was performed using the logarithmically transformed data to calculate a and b coefficients and ...

Journal of Zoological Systematics and Evolutionary Research, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022 Species with large distributions provide unique opportunities to test how geography has influenced biotic diversification. In this work, we aimed to explore the effect of geographic barriers on the distribution of the phenotypic and genetic variation of a spider species that is widespread in continental and insular America.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 11, Issue 20, Page 13756-13772, October 2021., 2021 Abstract Bats in the family Phyllostomidae exhibit great diversity in skull size and morphology that reflects the degree of resource division and ecological overlap in the group. In particular, the subfamily Stenodermatinae has high morphological diversification associated with cranial and mandibular traits that are associated with the ability to ...

People and Nature, Volume 3, Issue 4, Page 811-826, August 2021., 2021 Abstract Wildfires have increased in protected areas (PAs) of the Colombian Amazon following the 2016 peace agreement between the Government and the Revolutionary Armed Forced of Colombia (FARC—Spanish acronym). Recent study efforts to understand this issue suffer from data scarcity and limited consultation of local stakeholder perspectives on factors ...

Adding leaves to the Lepidoptera tree: capturing hundreds of nuclear genes from old museum specimens
Systematic Entomology, Volume 46, Issue 3, Page 649-671, July 2021., 2021 A target enrichment kit and workflow to sequence and process hundreds to thousands of loci for recent and old Lepidoptera specimens is presented. Taxa are added to the Lepidoptera phylogeny based on museum specimens collected between 1892 and 2017. Lepidoptera systematic relationships are discussed.
