Functional diversity of snakes is explained by the landscape composition at multiple areas of influence. [PDF]
This study investigated the impact of roads and landscape composition on the functional diversity of snakes in the Orinoco region of Colombia. The results suggest that landscape composition affects the functional diversity of both road‐killed snakes and those inhabiting the adjacent vegetation within an area of influence ranging from 250 to 2000 m. The

A 23-million-year record of morphological evolution within Neotropical grass pollen. [PDF]
Summary Grass‐dominated biomes in South America comprise c. 20 million years of history, yet their evolution and underlying drivers remain poorly understood. Here we apply a novel approach that combines scanning electron microscopy imaging with computational analysis to quantify the morphometrics of grass (Poaceae) pollen micro‐ornamentation from the ...

Pre-cretaceous sedimentary sequences of llanos Orientales basin (llo), Colombia
Sedimentary deposition in the Llanos Basin began in open basins of very freezing waters during the Precambrian (Cryogenian - Ediacaran). In the Chiguiro 1 well, it could be observed that there was a continuous sedimentation, passing from the Ediacaran ...

Geographic patterns of tree dispersal modes in Amazonia and their ecological correlates
Abstract Aim To investigate the geographic patterns and ecological correlates in the geographic distribution of the most common tree dispersal modes in Amazonia (endozoochory, synzoochory, anemochory and hydrochory). We examined if the proportional abundance of these dispersal modes could be explained by the availability of dispersal agents (disperser ...

Roadkill patterns in Latin American birds and mammals
Abstract Aim Roads are a major threat for wildlife, degrading habitat and causing mortality via wildlife–vehicle collisions. In Latin America, the conjunction of high biodiversity and a rapidly expanding road network is reason for concern. We introduce an approach that combines species traits and habitat preferences to describe vulnerability and map ...
