Phylogenomic Evidence of Fire Regime Changes: The Case of a Resprouting Juniper

Ecology Letters, Volume 28, Issue 7, July 2025.
We propose that fire‐adaptive traits, such as lignotuber resprouting, can serve as proxies to estimate fire regime shifts. We estimated the origin of lignotuber resprouting in the Iberian Juniperus oxycedrus complex. By doing so, we provide new insights into the assembly of the Mediterranean biome.

Molecular phylogenetics of Sarcolaenaceae (Malvales), Madagascar's largest endemic plant family [PDF]

Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 2016
With 72 species belonging to ten genera, Sarcolaenaceae are the largest and most diverse of Madagascar's endemic plant families. Comprising shrubs and trees, with members found in nearly all of this island nation's biogeographic regions, they are characterised by the presence of a distinctive extra-floral involucre that is more or less accrescent ...

Geographical Distribution and New Host Associations of Rhyssomatus Subtilis (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) in Argentina [PDF]

, 2013
The genus Rhyssomatus Schoenherr, 1837 includes 176 Neotropical and Nearctic species, many of which have agricultural importance because they are phytophagous during the larval and adult stages (O’Brien & Wibmer 1982; Wibmer & O’Brien 1986; Costa et al ...

Moult is associated with higher diversity of food items in the diet of Common Bulbuls (Pycnonotus barbatus) in Cameroon

Ibis, Volume 167, Issue 3, Page 803-811, July 2025.
Moult is an essential part of birds' annual cycle, and requires sufficient intake of energy and nutrients, but we understand little about how such nutritional requirements are met by wild birds. Using faecal metabarcoding, we analysed the diet of moulting and non‐moulting Common Bulbuls Pycnonotus barbatus, captured in Cameroon.

The morphology and relationships of the Sphaerosepalaceae (Malvales) [PDF]

Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 2004
The comparative vegetative and reproductive morphology and anatomy of the Malagasy endemic family Sphaerosepalaceae is examined in light of two current competing hypotheses of relationship from recent molecular studies. Sphaerosepalaceae are similar to Thymelaeaceae on the basis of leaf architecture, calyx vasculature and in having endostomal ...
