Rarity of monodominance in hyperdiverse Amazonian forests. [PDF]
Tropical forests are known for their high diversity. Yet, forest patches do occur in the tropics where a single tree species is dominant. Such "monodominant" forests are known from all of the main tropical regions. For Amazonia, we sampled the occurrence

Animal–Plant Interactions Under Defaunation: Consequences for Amazonian Trees of Commercial Interest
We experimentally investigated the effects of medium‐ and large‐sized mammal defaunation on the removal and fate of seeds from economically important forest species in Amazonian forests. Our results show that mammal exclusion significantly reduced seed removal, although the magnitude of this effect varied among plant species.

Habitat selection, parasites and injuries in Amazonian crocodilians
Caiman crocodilus is found most frequently in relatively warm, shallow or grassy areas in the larger rivers, lakes and canals of Amazonia. The habitats that it uses are increasing in area because of human activities.

ABSTRACT Freshwater habitats face significant human disturbances globally, impacting food security and ecosystems. Protected areas can mitigate biodiversity loss, but limited data on population connectivity hinders conservation management. This study examines pirarucu (Arapaima gigas), a heavily exploited and threatened Amazonian fish, using genomic ...

Beyond Core‐Periphery: A Multidimensional Typology of Brazilian Regional Inventive Capacity
ABSTRACT The geography of invention in Brazil is characterized by a profound and multi‐polarised structure that extends beyond a simple core‐periphery dichotomy. This paper demonstrates this complexity through a multidimensional analysis of inventive capacity (2000–2023), operationalised along four axes—‘how much’, ‘who’, ‘how’, and ‘what’ is invented ...
